10 313 Meeting

The Home Interest Society met at Walbrooke
June 19^th according to adjournment.

The level shady lawn was most attractive with
groups of members and visitors in lively social
concourse, when the Secty arrived. The meeting
settled into quiet in the breezy outdoors as Chas.
Farquhar the Chairman called it to order.

After reading the first minutes the premises
were inspected and found to posess more features
of interest and practical value than the limited
space would suggest to a casual observer. Several
apple trees were noticed that were full of fruit
a cherry and plum beside a variety of shade trees
of ample size though in the shadow of the venerable
roadside chestnut which has failed to dwarf
them in spite of its great bulk. Some rows of fine
tomato plants were walled in with robust nasturtiums
and sweet peas and places had been found for
Chrysanthemums and house plants. Hollyhocks were
ranged along the wall; while lilies were in bloom and
many other plants attracted attention.

Our neighbors furnished specimens of cabbage, onion
beets, potatoes, tomatoes and melon vine in bloom
from Drayton. Tanglewood had specimens also
of cabbage and onion also, salsify and carrot.

One of the most interesting features of The Home
Interest always, is the supper, but on this occasion
it was outdone by the taking of The Home Interest
picture. Much time was required to pose
