Winter Meeting. 251 



you for your hearty co-operation with me and with the Executive Com- 

 mittee in whatever and in all things we have done. 



We shall never stop this work, and we shall ever be a Society "al- 

 ways at it." The prospect for the future was never brighter, and more 

 work will come as the years go on. All I ask of you is continued and 

 hearty co-operation with me in all this, and we shall see more and greater 

 things in the future than ever. 



In the closing words of my first official address to you I say to you, 

 now as then, I am one of you, with you, for you, to the bettering of 

 horticulture in all its departments and to the upbuilding of our cause in 

 this grand State of Missouri. With unity we shall see greater advance- 

 ment than we have dreamed. With you I shall ever be proud that I 

 have had a part in our success.
