WINTER MEETING. 



177 



less than 10,000 to 12,000 plates of fruit, and no day of the 180 days 

 but that our tables were full. 



Last fall, the fall of 1892, we put in cold storage in Chicago 160 

 *barrel8 of fine apples, which were drawn on during the summer as 

 they were required. They required changing more or less every day in 

 order to keep clean and perfect the specimens, and this kept three 

 persons busy continually. E. L. Pollard and John Evans deserve the 

 thanks of this Society for the very faithful and efficient service they 

 rendered in their care and attention to the work in its minutest detail. 

 No one who has not been in this work can begin to think of the im- 

 mense amount of routine work this involved. 



A classified list of the persons who famished fruit and helped to 

 collect the specimens is here given :
