Cloverly, Brooke Grove & Tanglewood all
had corn. The fine tomatoes from
The Cedars surely deserve mention, also
Cousin Ellen's beautiful roses. The
potatoes from Knowlton were raised
from the eyes. Mrs. Davis told us
she bought one qt. of eyes (60¢ / per
peck) planted them about the 17^th of
May & they had grown well.

The Sec. received a circular in regard
to the laws of the dog tax, etc., but the
chairman suggested the paper be posted
at the bank, as that was a public
place where those interested would be
likely to see it.

Questions.
Several of the questions asked were in regard
to the growth of the vines, cucumbers, &
melons, Cucumbers planted with
sweet corn at Cloverly were doing beautifully,
Fred Stabler's are dying, & he feels sure
there is sothing at the root.

Many report melons not doing well.
Cousin Ellen Farquhar says hers are
pitiful to look at _ she said she thinks
her vines have paralysis, but not
"creeping paralysis".
