86th Meeting - Sunnyside
The "Home Interest" met at the house of Frederic
Sabler March 9th 1878 - with 22 members
and 12 guests present: much the largest
gathering we have had for several months.
Business was commenced at 5.30 o'c with
A. E. Hartshome as foreman. After reading
the minutes of the last meeting at this
place, we were invited to inspect the site
selected by our hostess for a new flower garden.
The ladies unanimously and a few gentlemen,
approved of moving, and thought the location
decided upon, a portion of the south end of
the vegetable garden, a good one.
Question 1st What trees must E.P. Thomas plant
in front house? Maple - Tulip Poplar & [?]
also recommended.
2nd Where can Hendan chickens be obtained?
Brooklynville, Baltimore County.
3rd How soon to remove protective primrose bushes?
When frost is out of the ground. Some thought
it would be best to only partially uncover it, as
there may be weather later, severe enough to injure
them. The past Winter having been so mild, the
unrestricted roses will probably fare best. One
member reported geraniums living that had
been in the ground since last Fall. _
