that we extend a vote of thanks to the management of the Claypool Hotel 
for courtesies shown the Academy. 
(Seconded and carried.) 
Dr. Fotry: We will now take up the program of the morning. The 
first number is an address by Dr. B. W. Evermann, of the U. S. Bureau of 
Fisheries, on “Federal Control of International and Interstate Waters.” 
For Dr. Evermann’s address see page 119. 
Dr. Fotey: The next paper is by Prof. Charles W. Greene, of the 
University of Missouri, on “The Speed of Migration of Salmon in the 
Columbia River.” 
An abstract of Professor Greene’s address is given on page 125. 
Dr. Fotey: The last paper on the program, “Some Hoosier and 
Academy Experiences,” is by C. A. Waldo, of the Washington University, 
St. Louis, but Mr. Waldo is not here. The first paper, “Methods and 
Materials Used in Soil Testing.’ is by H. A. Huston, of Chicago. Mr. 
Huston is not here, but his paper is, and it will take about fifteen minutes 
to read it. It is contrary to precedent that a paper should be read by 
anyone but the author. However, the Academy can change that, of course. 
at will. What shall we do with this paper? 
(Moved and carried that the paper be read.) 
For Professor Huston’s address see page 111. 
Dr. Forry: I am sure the members of the Academy would like to 
hear from anyone who has any suggestions to offer. This completes the 
list on the program, but we will be glad to hear from anyone else. 
If you will pardon me, I would like to make a suggestion or two, one 
of which was made to me last evening. 
Those of us who are members of the American Association know that 
when we register there, a number is given us corresponding to the name, 
address and business of the member. So all we need to do to find any 
man’s pedigree is to refer to the number in the list, which is the registra- 
tion list. Now, it seems to me that some scheme like that might be an ad- 
vantage in connection with this Academy, so that any member can find 
out who the other man is. I know I am introduced to people a half-dozen 
ata time, whom I cannot place and name a few minutes afterwards. A great 
many people I find are like to me in that respect. We cannot associate 
names and faces after having been introduced to three or four persons at 
once. Perhaps some sort of a scheme might be adopted to advantage.
