7. A letter was read from Mr. C. H. Lotty 
offering a special prize for our fall show. 
Our April meeting closed the yearly compe- 
tition for the Joseph Mamla Cup, which has 
been competed for at our monthly meetings. 
It was up for six months for the gardener 
without glass, and six months for the gar- 
dener with glass ; each exhibit being judged 
on a scale of points. Emil Barth having 
the highest number of points, being the win- 
ner of the cup. Mr. Manda also offered a 
cup for competition among assistants for 
the Ix'st essay on any individual subject in 
gardening. Mr. James Davidson was the 
winner of this cup with an essay on fruit 
tires. The society's silver medal was 
awarded to Mr. C. D. Schaeffer for a col- 
lection of Anemone Chrysanthemums 
shown at our fall show. Mr. I). McGregor 
read a very interesting paper on Carnations, 
which raised a very interesting discussion 
on the different treatments of the carnation, 
especially the young stock, which was very 
appropriate at this time of the year. The 
secretary read the paper on "The Young 
Gardener's Opportunity in America," by Mr. 
Henry Gibson, which was well received ami 
discussed freely. Mr. Gibson being a former 
member of our society, special interest was 
taken in his writings.

NEW LONDON HORTICULTURAL 
SOCIETY. 
The New London Horticultural Soeietj 
held its regular monthly meeting in the 
Council Chamber, .Municipal building, Stat. 
street. Thursday evening. April 13. Presi- 
dent Miller gave notice that the Flower 
Show Committee had decided to dispense 
with the summer show this year. Lack of 
interest by the public had discouraged the 
society, after a great deal of labor and ex- 
pense in staging the show. It was felt that 
it would, tor this season anyway, not hold 
a summer show. The fruit and chrysanthe- 
mum show will be held as usual in Novem- 
ber. President Miller then introduced Mr. 
Wm. Dawson, of Willimantic, to give an 
address on carnations. Mr. Dawson is the 
originator of the new scarlet carnation 
"lied Wing." which is being sent out this 
year. Mr. Dawson's address was very in- 
structive, and a very hearty vote of thanks 
was given him for his talk. Mr. Robinson, 
of the Plant estate, staged a very tine bunch 
ill Lilium Forensium hyancinths and tulips, 
narcissus, etc. Several very nice vases of 
carnations were exhibited by Mr. Thos. Hat- 
ton. Landers estate; also from Edward 
Mults. florist. Mr. Stanley Jordan had some 
tine blooms of the variety Pink Sensation 
on exhibition. Mr. Dawson staged a very 
Hue lot of Redwing, besides other varieties. 
Mr. John Maloney had some fine Genista 
and candytuft on* the tables. Three new 
members were elected to membership. Tin- 
attendance was the largest of the year thus 
far. Secretary gave notice that Mr. Irving 
Davis, who is in charge of the gypsy moth 
work in this part of the State, would give 
an illustrated talk next month, and it was 
voted to open this meeting to the public. 
STANLEY JORDAN, Secretary.

The COLDWELL 
"THREESOME" 
87 Inch Cut 
The mower that makes one horse do the 
work of three. The Coldwell "Three- 
some" embodies features to be found in no 
other mower. It mows a wide, clean, even 
cut, and does it more quickly and more 
economically than any other horse mower 
made. 
Dust-proof grease cases for all gears and axles. 
This adds to the life of the machine, and saves 
the trouble of constant cleaning and oiling. 
It won't tear the turf when turning. Back rollers 
in three sections prevent this. 
A single lever at operator's right lifts all the cutting 
knives at once. Weight of superstructure and operator 
evenly divided over the three mowers. Special con- 
struction insures overlapping of cuts. 
All mowers can be thrown out of gear at once, without 
operator leaving his seat. 
Send for catalogue of the Coldwell line of 150 styles and sizes — 
including the Walk and Ride type motor 'mowers, hm-. 
mowers with demountable cutters and putting green mowers.
