6 wanted grafts from a healthy seedling
peach tree? Get them at Riverside
7 When plant spinach? In August
8 Where did the Jimson weed get its name?
Said to be a contraction of Jamestown

A guest who had recently returned from
Jamestown was highly pleased with the exposition
and advises every one to go.

In our walk we came to some verses,
warning us from a certain part of the lawn
on account of honey-bees. The retreat of some
was so sudden, that only the first verse
was read. In the opposite direction was
the vegetable garden with its newly planted
celery beds, its broad heads of cabbage and
various other vegetables. The poultry was visited.
Countless chickens of good size. and some
small ones in an upstairs room.

This was a very pleasant and interesting
meeting, with no threatening of storms to
disquiet and make us anxious about our
homeward journey.

Next meeting to be at Brooke Grove
