The regular monthly meeting of the
Fremont County Horticultural Society
was held in the court house last Satur-
day with President J. W. Work pre-
siding.
Owing to press of work during the
summer months our fruit growers find
little time for meetings to discuss the
questions which come up in the life of
horticulturist, yet the society has
failed only once the past summer to
hold its monthly meeting. Now, how
ever, that the dull months have re-
turned and the time for the annual in
stitute approaches the attendance is
picking up.
On Saturday, after disposing of the
usual routine business, the matter of
the Forthcoming institute was dis
cussed.

lack of knowledge as to when the state

doubt, be held during the third or
fourth week in January next.
Since the introduction of a mid

the institute, two years ago, the ques-

society is desirous and anxious to have

President Work, By vote of the
society, was authorized to appoint the

and four ladies'.
1t was the sense and desire of the
society that the lunch committee con-
fine itself to bill of fare to about half
dozen articles and make it strictly
a cold lunch, save coffee, in order to
reduce tina labor OF the ladies to the
minimum.
The president asked for time in which
