274 ANNUAL REPORT 



cane seed to Canada to be distributed among the farmers for plant- 

 ing next spring. 



With better varieties there will be more marked results. 



Already the results obtained have added much to the wealth of 

 the United Statep. Seth H. Kenney. 



P. S. As most of the officers of the state amber cane associ- 

 ation are, and have been members for many years of the Minneso- 

 ta State Horticultural Society, and as our worthy secretary of the 

 amber cane association has moved away from the state, and as the 

 members of the Horticultural society have been from the first 

 largely interested in the amber cane industry, I would as one of 

 the executive committee of the amber cane association recommend 

 turning over the funds now held by the amber cane association to 

 the State Horticultural Society to use as they see fit. S. H. K.
