Members of the horticultural society report steady progress as meetings continue to discuss exhibits and garden planning. Officials urge participation and outline upcoming demonstration sessions and show dates.
Yesterday's horticultural meetings featured papers on Floriculture by Mrs. Elmer Keck and practical tips from Wesley Green on Window Gardens. Captivating evening programs in the Academy Chapel included readings by Miss Laffer and talks by Mr. Gardner and Captain Kellogg, ending with a wide-ranging summary on Snap Shots Around the Ranch and fruit crop prospects for 1908.
The session opened with prayer and featured a paper by S W Snyder on caring storing planting and packing nursery stock. Officers were elected for the coming year and premiums awarded to exhibitors including Harringtons Eden Palmer and Keck. Abner Branson closed the meeting with a Peach in Iowa talk.
