G1UFFIN GEORGIA, WEDNESDAY MORNING. NOYEMBER 18. I8S<>.
CHRYSANTHEMUMS!
GRIFFIN HOLDS A NOTABLE
FLOWER SHOW
At the Meeting ef the Horticultural
Society—The Finest Display Ever
Seen Anywhere.
Giffin held a flower show yesterday
that easily proved her the queen
among the floral regions of the
world.
There had been no elaborate pre¬
paration, and no announcement or
advertisement except a four line no¬
tice in the News and Sun of Sunday.
There were no displays from dis¬
tant gardens, no labored efforts of
professional nurserymen, and noth¬
ing from further than Sunny Side,
seven miles away.
None others were needed.
When Griffin wants a flower show
of any kind, her own gardens, scat¬
tered all oyer the city and extending
far up along the line of the Central
railroad, with a veritable Pomona
as a second centre, are all-sufficient.
There was a large attendance of
ladies and gentlemen yesterday and
those who missed it will regret it
when they read the following full ac¬
count in the minntes of the Middle
Georgia Horticultural Society:
Gbiffin, Ga., Nov. 12th, 1889.
The society met in the grand jury
room, with President J. D. Husted
in the chair. In the absence of the
Secretary Douglas Glessner acted in
that capacity.
The minutes of previous meeting
were read and approved.
Mr. Husted explained that an es¬
sayist had been appointed to read
an essay at this meeting bnt had
failed to come.
Mr. Husted stated that the princi¬
pal object of this meeting was the
exhibit of the flowers. He said that
he would appoint a committee on
flowers, which he hoped would make
more critical and less perfunetory re¬
port than they had been having usu¬
ally.
The resignation of Wm. Warder as
secretary was read.
Mr. Wayman said that it had been
his pleasure to nominate Mr. Warder
for secretary; he has filled the place
well, and he now regretted to move
that the resignation be accepted.
The motion was carried.
Mr. Hasted announced that the
next meeting of the society would be
held on the second Tuesday in Janu¬
ary, place not named.
The chairman appointed as com¬
mittee on flowers Douglas Glessner,
Mrs. Wm. Warder and Miss Sue Dis-
muke. On fruits Dr. Mitchell, Mr.
Sutherland and Mr. Cunningham.
A recess was taken to allow the
committees to perform their duties.
On being called to order again th®
reports were read.

tieulated or Christmas cactus.
Miss Emma Fauss, purple pompons,
planted in box.
The arrangement of boxes and dis¬
plays was made by Mrs. Wayman,
who deserves special credit for much
of the work done in this exhibition.
The general decorations and ap¬
pearance of the room are very beau¬
tiful and in admirable taste. The
display is not only creditable to Grif¬
fin and Spalding county, but would be
equally so to any community, and it
is the unanimous opinion of the com¬
mittee, who have seen many similar
exhibite, that this display is fully
equal if not superior to any more
pretentious ones in Atlanta, Rome,
Columbus or any place or locality
whatsoever. It is to the credit of
this display that it was impossible to
classify and criticise it according to
the suggestions of the president of
the society, on account of the large
collections, infinite variety and uni¬
form excellence. At some smaller
occasion it may be possible to show
more discrimination, but in the pres¬
ence of this display nothing but gen¬
eral terms of praise can be given.
Respectfully,
Mrs. Wm. Warder,
Mrs. R. H. Thompson,
Douglas Glessner.
The committee on fruits reported
aa follows:

had come from the North, East,
West and South, united their forces
there was nothing that they could
not accomplish and he believed that

been seen.
The President then declared the
