REPORT OF SECRETARY. 



Gentlemen of the Board of Agriculture : 



On this occasion, your an- 

 nual meeting, it has been the 

 custom for your Secretary to 

 make report showing in brief 

 what the Board has accom- 

 plish during the year, and to 

 suggest in what way the great 

 agricultural interests may be 

 benefited. 



Our Legislature — the great 

 assembly of lawmakers — is just 

 beginning the biennial session, 

 and you now have your only op- 

 portunity to secure the enact- 

 ment of desired legislation dur- 

 ing the next two years. 



At your last annual meeting 

 your Secretary suggested sev- 

 eral laws for your considera- 

 tion, and it may be well to refer 

 to them again. They are: county fairs, Hahatonka purchase, pure 

 seed law, and statistical law. 



The proposition for the State to purchase the Hahatonka tract 

 in Camden county for a State park has already received your en- 

 dorsement and need not be further considered at this time. 



T. C. Wilson.
