St. PAUL has been chosen for the 
annual meeting and show of the Amer¬ 
ican Peony Society. Up in Minnesota 
peonies bloom later than they do in 
Ohio and the show will not be until 
June 21st and 22nd. If you are in¬ 
terested in fine peonies, you will enjoy 
attending. 
Membership in the American Pe¬ 
ony Society is open to all. The annual 
fee is $3 for which you are entitled to 
all benefits of the society including the 
quarterly bulletin giving information 
about new and interesting peonies, 
shows, etc. 
If you should like to belong you 
may send your annual fee to Auglaize 
Gardens and we will forward it, to¬ 
gether with an application for mem¬ 
bership, to headquarters at once.
