To our southern pomologists this meet.
ing especially commends itself, and it is OF
the utmost importance that our southern
friends should have their section fully rep.
resented, in order that growers from other
parts of the country may see how eminent
ly adapted to the production of fruits the
southern States are. .<
All are urged to unite in the exhibition,
it being considered far preferable to have
five thousand plates Of fruit, from us many
contributors rather. than have the same
quantity exhibited by smaller number.
The meeting then adjourned. sat
