LXII ROYAL SOCIETY OF CANADA 



16. — Government Scientific Work. 



The Council is glad to be able to present to the Society the follow- 

 ing very interesting Eeports relating to the past year : — 



From Dr. W. F. King, C.M.G. — On the work of the Dominion 

 Observatory. 



From Mr. E. F. Stupart. — On the work carried on in connection 

 with the Meteorological Service of the Dominion. 



From Dr. W. Bell Dawson. — On work done in connection with the 

 Survey of Tides and Currents. 



From Prof. E. E. Prince. — On the Marine Biological Stations of 

 Canada. 



17. — Associated Societies. 



The Honorary Secretary has received responses from seventeen as- 

 sociated societies ; and others which have not been heard from as yet may 

 still send delegates or reports. It is proposed to make special efforts 

 during the coming year to interest these societies in the work of the 

 Eoyal Society so that the federation, if it may be so called, of societies 

 recognizing the Eoyal Society of Canada as a centre, may be as extended 

 as possible. Amongst the associated societies the Eoyal Society may 

 claim a special interest in the Landmarks Association as having been 

 formed under its own auspices and in close affiliation to two of its 

 sections. 



18. — Literary Product of Members of the Society. 



It should be widely undej'stood that the literary activity of mem- 

 bers of the Society is not limited to the papers they contribute to its 

 Transactions. In proof of this a list, which is probably by no means 

 complete, of works published by members simply during the past year is 

 herewith submitted; and if the Socieiy should think it desirable similar 

 lists, but more complete, can be prepared for future meetings.
