ANNUAL MEETING, 1898. 



9 



The seasioa closed oa Friday evening with an entertainment by 

 the agricultural school, under the management of Prof. Green. It 

 is needless to say that this was a success, and it was found neeeseary 

 to move into a larger room to accommodate the crowd. Music by 

 the school band and orchestra, interesting papers, dumb bell and 

 Indian club exercises, a couple of rollicking songs by President 

 Underwood, and the annual lantern show by the professor com- 

 pleted, as the members say, "the most interesting session we have 

 ever held." A pleasant feature of the evening was the action of the 

 society in making Mr. J. C. Kramer, of La Crescent, a life member. 

 His lifetime of service in horticulture and long connection with the 

 society were well worth the compliment.
