Proceedings of Special Meeting Held at Vineyard, June 12th. I Ofli<:ialIy Reported for tlie News.] A special meeting was held at Vineyard Station, Tuesday, June J.2th inst., President Hustedjpresi- ding. Secretary’s report of last meeting read and adopted after correction by Mr. Oettor that Aestivalis and £not the Lebrusca class of grapes are the the least liable to rot. President Husted made some re marks about Secretary‘8 report be ing published in full, and on motion of Mr- Oette r the Griffin News was made the official paper of this society, and that the minutes of meetings be published in full therein. Mr. Oetter mado a final report of committee on packages, and on mo tion of Mr. VanDyke the committee was relieved from further duty. Mr. Husted stated be had been in cor respondence with the government experts, Professors Smith and Scrib ner, in regard to peach and plum diseases, and they report that the fuagus growth that hasj been attack ing wild goose plum trees and fruit has long been prevalent in the wild plum trees of the soutbern States and no remedy has as yet been dis covered except to cut out affected parts to prevent spread of disease. Mr. Harris read a letter from Prof. Smith making general inquiries about the peach yellows in bis vicin ity—as to length of timo it had been noticed here, appearance of trees affected, amount of peaches grown here, per'cent, affected, etc. The expression of members was that the disease has been known here 0 to 10 years; trees do not bear fruit, some stating they did not bloom; that there are about 100,000 trees in this neighborhood, and from 1 to 1£ per cent, are lost yearly by this trouble, and it is of injury to us and any efficient rem edy will be welcome, Mr. Hasted made a report of his experiments of dropping peaches just prior to packing for shipment in a sulphur solution, and also of slightly dusting on flour of sulphur, and found that peaches so treated had no disagreeable taste, and decay was prevented, in case of partially rotted fruit arrested for double the time fruit not so treated. Subjecting fruit to fumes of burning sulphur bad a bleaching effect that would de tract from appearance and sale. Mr. Mitchell thought it could be done slightly and not be detrimental to fruit, and thought on a still day fruit could be subjected to fumes of burning sulphur on the tree, but it was questionable whether the ex pense would not be more than the resultant benefit. After a fifteen minutes recess the committee on flowers reported; “This committee find a fine selection of roses and other flowers, making a beautiful display; one basket of dahliaa and ferns from Miss Alice Galhouse, a large tray of roses frem Mrs. Husted, a boquet of wild phlox from Mrs. Beatty, a plate of rosei and a boquet of verbenas, pinks and other flowers from Mrs. Wayman, and pansies from Miss Clara Wav man. “Mrs. Wayman, Mrs. Sumner and Mrs. Stanley, committee, 14 Committee on fruit and vegeta bles report, “That they find exbibi ted by itr.

The application did not cure, but did prevent spread of rot- Says he has stopped cultivating his vineyard much, as he dislikss the appearance and bother of the weed crop, but preferred not to tt.r up dormant germs of fungus growth that may lay in the soil; does not see that there is any less rot, however, and notices that it is worse this year on high ground, bnt no difference as to situation on vine, and one bunch may have several attacked and next bunch be perfectly free. His Black Hamburg and Golden Chaslass badly rotted. Mr. Hasselkus stated more varieties were affectod with rot this year than ever before, and Sultana badly mildewed. Mr. Wayman stated that some vints he had trained up some peach trees always had perfect fruit high up. Mr. Cawker says rot is not the sixteenth as much as last year on his vineyard. Mr. Oetter spoke of a small black spot that was often on grapes and thought it was only a skia disease, as the berry may ri pen up ai d be perfect, whereas one affected with black rot was de stroyed President Hasted stated that at the rn-xt regular meeting the annual election of officers would be held, and he deeded a full atten dance.
