FRUIT MAP OF THE STATE. 



President Elliot. Now I want to call your attention to a matter 

 of great importance that I want Prof. Green to explain. 



Prof. Green then said that President Elliot had suggested to him 

 that it would be a good plan to get up a map of the State of Min- 

 nesota, on which it would be shown in which districts apples had 

 been grown successfully, and where they had not been grown suc- 

 cessfully. He stated he had prepared the two maps exhibited 

 simply to start a discussion 



President Elliot said there was one point that Prof. Green 

 did not touch upon with as much emphasis as he would like. We 

 can't go on with this investigation unless we have the co-operation 

 of every man that is interested in apple culture in Minnesota. 

 We want you to stick a pin right there and we are going to hold 

 you responsible for the success of this map. If we can't have 

 your aid and assistance we might just as well give it up. We 

 have no funds to put one or two men in the field and send them 

 all over the state to make a survey. When you get home sit right 

 down and give us the data, if you can, when the trees were plant- 

 ed, their location, section, township and as nearly as possible all
