London, Sept. 23, 1871. 



The 'Treasurer stated that the balance now in hand would be entirely 

 spent this year in completing the remaining six Nos. of the Can. Ent., 

 which the Editor purposed to do before Christmas. 



After December it is intended that the numbers should be issued 

 monthly, but at present it is necessary to issue double numbers in order 

 to complete the current volume during the year. 



The Secretary also stated that in accordance with their statute of 

 incorporation, an annual report of insects injurious to the farm and garden 

 would be furnished to the Commissioner of Agriculture, and that a printed 

 copy thereof would be forwarded to each member of the Society. 



The following officers were then elected for the ensuing year :- 



President.— Rev. C. J. S. Bethune, M. A., Trinity College School. 

 Port Hope. 



Vice-President. VV. Saunders, Esq., London, Out. 



Sec-Treas. — E. B. Reed, Esq.. 



Council. — Prof. Croft, Toronto ; Prof. J. Macoun, Belleville ; R. V. 

 Rogers, Esq., Kingston; J. M. Denton, Esq., London; J. Pettit, Esq., 



Grimsby. 



Auditors.- -John H. Griffiths, London; Chas. Chapman, London. 



The President's Annual Address will be found on another page. 



Prof. Dupuis, of Kingston, laid some information before the meeting 

 with regard to Lithographs for the Can. Ent. Several members of the 

 Kingston Branch expressed their pleasure at the meeting being held in 

 their city, and from the spirit evinced by their remarks it is evident that 

 Entomology will not be allowed to languish, but that some good work 

 may be expected from the ''Limestone City." 



Before adjourning, the Secretary took occasion to reciprocate the 

 kindly sentiments that the President of the Fruit Growers' Association 

 had so courteously expressed in his Annual Address the night previous 

 with regard to the Entomological Society of Ontario. It is sincerely to 

 be hoped that the two sister Societies may long continue to work to- 

 gether in such harmony, and that the results of their respective labours 

 rrjay be felt and appreciated by the country at large.
