In 1904 the annual meeting was held in conjunction with the 

 spring meeting of the North Carolina section of the American Chem- 

 ical Society, largely through the efforts of Dr. Baskerville, and the 

 arrangement has proved so acceptable to both organizations that it 

 has been continued, with an occasional lapse, ever since.

How great a harvest have the years revealed."
