  neath 
  we 
  will 
  have 
  our 
  small 
  crops. 
  In 
  that 
  way 
  we 
  will 
  have 
  a 
  

   two-story 
  farm. 
  

  

  The 
  President: 
  That 
  is 
  a 
  very 
  good 
  idea, 
  Dr. 
  Morris, 
  and 
  I 
  

   am 
  glad 
  you 
  got 
  it 
  in. 
  We 
  are 
  very 
  glad 
  to 
  have 
  the 
  remarks 
  by 
  

   Dr. 
  Morris 
  and 
  Mr. 
  Potter. 
  Mr. 
  Potter 
  has 
  been 
  in 
  the 
  legislature 
  

   and 
  we 
  are 
  pleased 
  to 
  know 
  that 
  there 
  is 
  one 
  member 
  of 
  a 
  legisla- 
  

   ture 
  in 
  the 
  United 
  States 
  who 
  does 
  not 
  know 
  how 
  to 
  graft. 
  

  

  Mr. 
  Potter: 
  I 
  am 
  sorry 
  you 
  said 
  that. 
  I 
  wish 
  you 
  had 
  left 
  

   that 
  out. 
  I 
  was 
  there 
  when 
  Lorimer 
  was 
  elected. 
  

  

  The 
  President: 
  There 
  is 
  nothing 
  that 
  would 
  cure 
  a 
  legislature 
  

   of 
  grafting 
  quicker 
  than 
  horticulture. 
  

  

  The 
  chair 
  desires 
  to 
  make 
  an 
  announcement 
  of 
  the
