THE STATE HORTICULTURAL PEOPLE HOLD ANOTHER INTERESTING SESSION AND

ADJOURN TO MEET NEXT TEAR AT BIfHMOND

IND.

Au Essay From Prof. J. IJossey Which Compares With That of Mr. Parker Earle for Excellence.

Ke&oluticiis of'i'iUank.H Ac. *c.

The evening se33loa of theState Horticultural Society was called to order at 7:30 o'clock last night by President Joseph Gilbert.

A good deal ot interest was taken in the report of Mrs. H. V. Austin, of Riehmond, in regard to her observations at the Pomolosical Society meeting at Chicago.

The centennial was somewhat discussed. Mr. C. C. Keelor, representing the Cincinnati Enquirer and Alden's patent machine for drying, curing and pressing fruits by evaporation, illustrated the workings of the machineMr. Keeler, beside making a very able agent for this excellent process, presenting the entire subject in the best possible light, is a gentleman of culture and considerable knowledge of horticulture. His suggestions to the society were well timed.

Mr. S. B. Mann, of Michigan, al30 made an exhibition of cabbage and pumpkins.

Dr. John A. Warder, of Ohio, reported on fruits. He also read a paper on "Pomology, its nomenclature, the pioneer fruit culturists and the difficulties that were met and overcome in the earlier history of the science." All that the doctor said was received with marked attention.

An ad interim report was made by Mr. R-.'gan. The first thing on the programme this morning, and that which constituted its principal interest, was the pap3r on Botany, and its relation to Horticulture, by Dr. Hussey, of Purdue, University. This, and the paper oa Pear Culture, by Parker Earle, are two. as fine addresses as were ever vde before a society of this character. Tae Doctor is an,atdent lover.ot botaqy and ably does ho argue .for the practical utility of its study, as well as the cultivating influence which a knowledge of its mysteries and intricacies inspiros, lie advancod a vory strong argument for the chemist and the fossil hunter, those two classes of individuals usually designated by practical people as "crack-brained enthusiasts." The discoveries of the geologist have taught men where certain crops will grow.the. best, for certain it is that the success of various plants depends wholly on geological formations. The chemist is of material utility, .for he tells us how to replenish soils tha have become impoverished, an infer* mation which can only be of value when coming from m»n who inaw 'lh original constituents of the earth when wanting, and howH' to be supplied. But if these two noble sciences are useful and fascinating, how much more^o is that o^ botany. No science applies its utility so iustantsneously as this. None furnishes man with more food i'or study and more constant or agreeable companionship.

On tbe conclnsiou of this excellent report Mr. R. S. Ragan remarked further on the ultimate rtlatioDS of a knowledge of botauy to horticulture. It has been discovered that the pistils and s^amers constitute the male and female organs of a plant. Tho absence of one or the other of these organs will kill the growth of any plant.

Secretary Ragan regretted'that further time could not be devoted to the consideration of Mr. Hussey's excellent report on botany. He moved that the thanks ot the society be tendered to Mr. H., and that ho be made an honorary member of the society. As the report from the First Distriot had not yet been read and as Mr. Mitchel was present ho then proceeded to lay it before the society. The "wine-sap" is the favorite variety ot apples in bis district. He gave an account of the leading powers in his vicinity as well as other information of value. Owing to the noise caused by a gentleman displaying some patent fence, this report was not heard throughout. On motion the reports from the various districts were ordered to be published without reading. Tho next thing on the programme was the "Historical sketch of the Society," by W. H. Ragan, On motion this was ordered to be published in the "regular report without reading. Mr. Ralcliff, the trustee of

THE l-EUDUE UNIVERSITY

:V'

made a report of his services while there. He remarked on the difficulty of successfully establishing a new institution, but thought that the eminent ability of the Professors in charge would overcome all impediments. Fourteen acres of land hare been set aside for a garden, and $1000 have been appropriated for the purpose ot building a green-house. This structure will be completed early next season. There are 57 pupils at the institution, eight of whom are females.

President Gilbert then read the appointments for for fruit reports at the n9Xt meeting from the different .Congressional districts. These are as follows: 1st. T. B. McCormick, Princeton. 2d. G. W. Register. ,... 3d. J. C, Ferris. 4th. J. V, Milhouse. 5th. J. A, Mendenhall.

THREE THOUSAND DOLLABS

en to take charge ofthe business relating to the centennial: For the Center—Dr. A. Furnas, L. Johnson and J. C. Ratclilfr?.

For the South—Robert Mitchell and J. Y. Milhouse, For the North—A. N. Millar, L. B. Custar and Tnomas A. Piffer.

Mr. Furnas desired to criticise tbe manner of criticising the fruit list. He had noticed some fruits marked with a dash (which means that the fruit is not known) and yet the apple, if such was the subject, is described as hardy,good for the table and an excellent fruit to ship. This contradictory language, he thought, should be corrected. It will not look well in the Yeport when it goes out to the world. He also remarked on tli3 game laws, and was not satisfied.

Mr. Regan moved that all iruits which are not marked with one star in oue of tbe districts at least, be stricken from the list. It was so ordered. Some discussion was eliceted by Dr. Warder's statement that no fruit Bbal] bo named until it was proven to be good. The doctor had known of a family in which there was a dispute as to names of children. Until this matter was settled tbe

CHILDREN WERE NUMJJEBED.

The same might be done in regard to iruils. There was also some further discussion on the

GAME LAW.

Dr. Fumes explained that he was the autbor of the present law. Although the law was not all that he could have desired, yet it was all that could bo passed, since it received a majority of but one vote. On potion both tho game and the bird laws were ordered to be published in tho proceedings. Ac" cording to the law as it now stands it is trespass for a man to go on another's place without permission. Tho suggestion was also made that members endeavor to have the laws published in their county papers in order that a more general knowledge in regard to the law bo diseminated.

Mr. Potter here remarked that Mr Scovill,of the Normal School,was pres ent with a request that as many of the members

prevented them from

exhibiting largely at this meeting. Among the printipal contributors are the following well known fruit growers:

James W. Ross, of Perrysburg, Ohio, exhibits 33 varieties ot apples Ellwanger & Barry, of Rochester, N. Y.,19 varieties of pears Francis Granger, of Toledo, Ohio, 37 varieties of apples Reynolds,Lewis & Co.,of Monroe,Mich. 34 varieties of apples H. Hefllebower, of Mondovla, Ohio, 43 varieties of apples, and T. B. McCormick, of Princeton, Ind., 4 varieties of apples Most of this fruit shows the well known characteristic ot its northern growth, namely: firmness of flesh, smoothness, of skin, brilliancy of color, and superior keeping qualities.

Our committee has carefully examined tne evaported fruits and vegetables prepared by the

OLDEM PROCESS,

by the "Farmers' Fruit Preserving Company," of Lebanon, Delamare. These evaporated products are cleanly and attractive in appearance, pleasant to the taste, and appear to possess qualities of which ordinary dried fruit is destitute.

As indicated by their titles, the manufacturers of the articles exhibited are associations of farmers and siuit growers, who have adoptek a sure and economical means of disposing of such fruits and vegetables as can not be profitably marketed.

Your committee oespectfully recommend that tbe fruit producers of Indiana adopt similar means for the preservation of a portion of the products of their oacharde and thus prevent the waste and loss that always attend an abundant fruit crop. •R JOHN A. WADER,

Chairman of Committee.-43'

The committee on pot flowers and tences on exhibition made the following report: You* committee appointed to examine the pot flowers and patent fences, wish to state that the pot flowers exhibited by Heinl Bros, are very fine and show to advantage the enterprise of this firm. Their business ia Becond to none in the State. The flower stand put on exhibition by W. B. Caldwell, of Paris, 111., is very neat and useful, being constructed so as to make it a circle, or half circle it can also be folded up when not in use. The patent fence exhibited by James A, Little, of Cartersburg, Ind., is cheap of construction and seems to be of practical use for common farm purposes, the difference of construction being in favor of the Buspension fence at least per rod.
