  The 
  President: 
  I 
  want 
  the 
  records 
  to 
  show 
  that 
  this 
  meeting 
  

   convened 
  in 
  Enterprise, 
  Luce 
  Township, 
  Spencer 
  County, 
  Indiana, 
  

   where 
  the 
  members 
  of 
  the 
  Northern 
  Nut 
  Growers 
  Association 
  visited 
  

   and 
  studied 
  the 
  native 
  Ohio 
  River 
  pecan 
  trees, 
  and 
  I 
  want 
  to 
  hear 
  

   the 
  opinions 
  of 
  the 
  different 
  visitors. 
  The 
  state 
  entomologist, 
  Mr. 
  

   Baldwin, 
  will 
  please 
  express 
  himself 
  upon 
  the 
  native 
  pecan 
  trees 
  on 
  

   the 
  Ohio 
  River. 
  

  

  Mr. 
  Baldwin: 
  My 
  remarks 
  will 
  be 
  so 
  brief 
  it 
  will 
  not 
  be 
  neces- 
  

   sary 
  for 
  me 
  to 
  go 
  forward. 
  I 
  don't 
  know 
  that 
  it 
  is 
  necessary 
  for 
  me 
  

   to 
  mention 
  the 
  fact 
  that 
  I 
  have 
  never 
  lived 
  in 
  and 
  very 
  seldom 
  vis- 
  

   ited, 
  localities 
  where 
  pecans 
  grow 
  in 
  this 
  state 
  and 
  cannot, 
  therefore, 
  

   express 
  an 
  authoritative 
  opinion 
  as 
  to 
  the 
  merits 
  and 
  demerits 
  of 
  

   the 
  pecan 
  trees 
  in 
  this 
  section. 
  It 
  is 
  noticeable 
  that 
  the 
  trees 
  are
