380 ANNUAL, REPORT OF THE Off. Doc. 



clover is not something we ought to avoid just as we ought to avoid 

 the wild carrot. 



MR. NELSON: I would like to have that condition of things at 

 my place; I would much prefer sweet clover to wild carrot. 



The SECRETARY: Will stock eat it? 



MR., NELSON: Well, mine would not eat it. 



The SECRETARY: I have never seen an instance where stock 

 would eat it. 



MR. NELSON: Some of our bee-keeper friends claim that where 

 stock gets accustomed to it, they will eat it, especially hogs; it 

 would be very valuable if they would eat it. 



The CHAIR: In accordance with a previous motion, the Chair will 

 appoint as a Memorial Committee, Messrs. McClellan, Herr and 

 Hege. I am also requested to state that there are a number of 

 members of the Board who are much interested in the bill before 

 the Legislature in regard to the new game law, and they would like 

 to meet together and have a discussion over the matter, in regard 

 to that law. They are requested to meet here and talk that over; 

 perhaps they better meet immediately after adjournment. 



MR. BLYHOLDER: Mr. Chairman, we waited on the Governor 

 at his ofiice, and found that he is at present out of the city and will 

 be unable to be here before to-morrow forenoon. 



MR. HUTCHISON: I met a great many members and senators 

 who made inquiry in regard to our meeting, and the program. If 

 it were possible to place a program in each of the postofflce boxes 

 on the "Hill," it might be the means of informing them and might 

 result in having some of them meet with us. 



The SECRETARY: We will try to do that so far as we are able. 



On motion, the meeting adjourned to 1.30 P. M. 



Tuesday Afternoon, January 24, 1905. 



The meeting was called to order by Vice President Sexton. 



The CHAIR: The first thing in order is the report of the Commit- 

 tee on Live Stock," D. A. Knuppenburg, Chairman. 



Mr. Knuppenburg being absent, his report was passed. 



The CHAIR: The next thing in order is the report of the Veter- 

 inarian, Dr. Pearson, of Philadelphia. 



The SECRETARY: I received a letter from Dr. Pearson stating 

 that it is impossible for him to be here to-day. 



The CHAIR: The next thing in order is the report of the Commit- 

 tee on Apiary, J. W. Nelson, Chairman.
