In consequence of some recent statements by Prof. A.J. Cook, 

 of the Michigan Agricultural College, the President desired it to 

 go on record that he totally disagreed with the Professor as to 

 there being any connection between the work of Phylloxera and 

 the ordinary grape-rot. 



Dr. G. Engelmann then read a paper on the " Firs of North 

 America." 



Mr. E. H. Long and Dr. J. H. Leslie were elected to associate 

 membership, and Prof. R. D. Irving of the University of Wiscon- 

 sin was elected Corresponding Member.
