February, '11] ENTOMOLOGISTS' proceedings 9 



the payment of dues. The program has been prepared, and in the back 

 of each program has been printed a list of members, and the number of 

 the button which is issued corresponds with the number of the member 

 on the list. Unfortunately, when I took this matter up with the printer, 

 he misunderstood me, and the programs were all printed with covers. 

 I only intended to have covers on the programs for the members, and 

 then have a certain number struck off without covers to be given out 

 promiscuously, 



Mr. Herbert Osborn: I would like to make a motion that the 

 secretary send our greetings to Miss Murtfelt. She is very much 

 interested in entomology, and I know she watches the work of this 

 Association very carefully. 



Secretary Burgess : I would like to second that motion. I had the 

 pleasure of visiting Miss Murtfelt, and passed a very pleasant afternoon 

 in her home, and since that time, owing to the fact that I have been 

 secretary, I have had a number of letters from her. She is deeply in- 

 terested in entomology, and if this meeting had been held here in the 

 summer I am very sure she would have attended. Motion carried. 



President Sanderson : It has been planned that we hold a session 

 at the Agricultural College on Thursday, and inasmuch as that is per- 

 haps as good an opportunity as we shall have to see the college and the 

 equipment of the state entomologist there, perhaps it would be well for 

 us to accept the invitation tendered us. 



A Member: I move that when we adjourn this afternoon that it be 

 to meet at the Agricultural College. Carried. 



Secretary Burgess: I would like to ask one question about the 

 program. We have a very full program, and a good many papers have 

 been sent in by parties unable to be present. There are also a few 

 papers, which are not on the program. I think it ought to be arranged 

 in some way so that we shall know just what ones are going to be 

 presented. 



A Member: I move that the papers whose authors are not present 

 be moved to the end of the program. Carried. 



Mr. Headlee: It has been suggested that it would be highly de- 

 sirable for the Horticultural Inspectors to become directly affiliated 

 with this Association, and that, to that end, a committee of this Asso- 

 ciation be appointed to confer with the committee on organization 

 of the Association of Horticultural Inspectors. 



A Member: I move that such a committee be appointed. Carried. 



Mr. Washburn: I should like to ask if anything definite was done 

 at the Washington meeting in this connection. 



Mr. Symons : I would say that the report of the Washington meeting 

 was similar to the one presented by Professor Bruner.
