Yesterday afternoon the delegates
to the State Horticultural conven¬
tion began to arrive and were met at
the train by the reception committee
and assigned to their places of enter-
tairment. They a.ea fine looking
set of people rnd evidently people
who have come to dispense and gain
knowledge of horticulture.
Mr. H. W. Hasselkus, with the
work of a half dozen men on his
hands, has been busy receiving ship¬
ments of fruit and preparing them
for exhibit and hardly has time to
answer a question put to him.
The brick warehouse, where the
exibite of fruits are to be made, is a
wonder of loveliness, the ladies com¬
mittee having taken this in charge
and decorated it with garlands and
rare flowers until its rough wa''s un¬
der their magnetic touch has become
a place of beauty. Patterson’s hall,
too, where the operetta is to render¬
ed tp-night, has been decorated in a
beautiful manner and the touch of
lovely women is displayed on every
side.
The court house, which has been
but recently ornamented, w>U be the
scent of the formal reception of the
Horticulturists this morning, where
the address of welcome will be deliv.
