the membership shall be on a State basis. That is, if your 

 Fruit Growers' Association should vote to become a member 

 of the Congress, that would automatically make all of your 

 members in good standing members of that Congress on the 

 payment of a very small per capita tax, two or three or four 

 cents. Every one of your members would receive the bene- 

 fits of the Congress direct. 



I want to close by renewing the invitation which I gave 

 to 3-0U and your members to be with us in Connecticut when 

 we have our annual meeting. 



THE CHAIRMAN: I think we are indebted to Mr. 

 Miles for the information he has brought us, and we are glad 

 to receive the greetings from the Connecticut Pomo'logieal 

 Society, and feel that Mr. Miles can tarry our greetings to 

 their meeting if w'e are not present. 



NoAv, we will have Mr. R. E. Annin Jr. speak to us on 

 the Massachusetts Apple Law.
