JOURNAL OF ANNUAL MEETING, I9O4. 50 5 



"We also recommend that the legislature make an annual ap- 

 propriation of One Thousand Dollars for the Minnesota State 

 Forestry Association." 

 Mr. R. G. Benjamin moved that the resolution be adopted. 

 A vote upon Mr. Benjamin's motion was then taken, and the 

 resolution was .manimously adopted. 



The President : We are fortunate in having with us this after- 

 noon a lady who has been prominently identified with the forestry 

 movement, and who is always ready to say a good word in its 

 behalf. I have the pleasure of introducing Mrs. Williams, who 

 will address us upon this subject of forestry. 



"Forestry as Related to the Farm," 

 Mrs. Lydia Phillips Williams, Minneapolis. (See index.) • 



The President: I am sure we all feel encouraged by this able 

 address of Mrs. Williams. The next paper on the program is one 

 by Mr. Fullerton, the state game warden. 



A paper prepared by Mr. Samuel F. Fulterton, State Game 

 \\'arden, entitled "Forestry and Game Protection," was then read by 

 Prof. Green. (See index.) 

 Discussion. 



The President: It is a very interesting paper, and the initial 

 part of it brought out what few people in this northern country 

 understand. The people of California say they live on oranges and 

 other fruit. Very few people understand how many thousands of 

 dollars are brought into the state, and how many thousands of dol- 

 lars are brought into Hennepin county, by people who enjoy our 

 beautiful lakes and the fine clear air, a niace where they can get 

 good fishing and hunting. 



We will now listen to a paper that will probably interest a good 

 many, a paper upon the subject of the pine weevil, by Prof Wash- 

 burn. 



Prof. F. L. Washburn then read a paper upon the subject of 

 "The White Pine Weevil." (See index.) 

 Discussion. 



The President : We have a full program and one good feature 

 about it is that nearly all those on the program are present or have 

 sent their papers, I believe all of them. I will call on Mr. Detwiler, 

 of the United States Bureau of Forestry, who will read a paper. 



"Federal Aid for Tree Planters," was the topic of a paper sub- 

 mitted by Mr. S. B. Detwiler, of the United States Bureau of 

 Forestry. (See index.) 



The President : We have with us a gentleman from whom we 

 would like to hear a few remarks, Mr. Charles Christadoro, who 

 has spread himself all over the state. 



Mr. Chas. Christadoro, of Minnesota, then made a few 

 remarks upon the general subject of forestry. (See index.) 



Prof. Green : I have a matter which I wish to present to you, 

 and I think I shall have to go somewhat in detail in regard to it.
