To get the largest good out of the meeting the audience must take 

 part by question or discussion. 



To give all an opportunity to present any subject affecting the inter- 

 ests of Agriculture, a Question Box will be provided, which it is ex- 

 pected will be freely used for the presentation of practical questions 

 which will be taken up and discussed as opportunity offers. 



To make this feature of the meeting profitable, bring in your ques- 

 tions and take part in the discussions. ■ 



Ample facilities will be afforded for the exhibition of Fruits and 

 Flowers, Grain and Vegetables, Butter and Cheese; and the bountiful 

 harvest just gathered warrants the hope that there will be a generous 

 exhibit. Mr. N. S. Piatt, Pomologist of the Board, will give his per- 

 sonal attention to this feature of the programme. 



Articles for exhibition may be sent, properly labeled, by express, at 

 the expense of the Board, to the Secretary at Willimantic, to arrive on 

 Monday, December nth.
