EVENING SESSION. 



Thursday, December 15, 1904. 



Convention called to order at 7.30 p. m., Vice-President 

 Seeley in the Chair. 



The President. First we will have a song, " 'Way Down 

 on the Suwanee River." 



Song. 



The President. The subject of the address this evening 

 is " The Geology of Connecticut as Related to Its Water Sup- 

 ply." A year ago we had something of this kind and it cre- 

 ated a great deal of interest. There is a good deal of interest 

 taken in this question, especially in this State of Connecticut, 

 and not only here but it extends to the State of New York, 

 particularly in regard to her future water supply. We have 

 with us this evening a gentleman who is going to instruct us 

 still further upon this interesting question, Professor H. E. 

 Gregory of Yale University, New Haven, whom I am pleased 

 to introduce to the audience. 



Owing to the protracted illness of Professor Gregory, his 

 article will not appear in this Report. 



MORNING SESSION — THIRD DAY. 



December 16, 1904. 



Convention called to order at 10 a. m. 

 Vice-President Seeley in the chair. 



The President. I would ask the audience to rise and sing 

 " Praise God, from Whom All Blessings Flow." 



Hymn. 



The President. The program this morning calls for an 

 address upon the " Care and Cultivation of Tobacco in the 

 Connecticut Valley." We are to listen to an address on that 

 subject by Mr. W. F. Andross of East Hartford, Conn., whom 

 I will now introduce to you.
