Concerning the C.S.T.A. and Its Branches 



BY THE GENERAL-SECRETARY 



The Second Annual Convention 



■^ 



The success of the Second Annual Con- 

 vention is already assured. The attendance 

 will be larger than at the Organizing Con- 

 vention in Ottawa two years ago or at the 

 Winnipeg Convention last year. Several 

 committees are now completing local ar- 

 rangements, and those who attend will spend 

 an enjoyable and profitable week. 



A new feature is being introduced at this 

 Convention, by providing a series of ad- 

 vanced lectures, by prominent men, in econ- 

 omics, plant industry and animal industry. 

 In arranging these lecture courses the Society 

 has received generous financial aid from the 

 Federal Department of Agriculture. 



The final Convention programme will not 

 be ready for mailing until June 15th. and 

 it is possible that unavoidable delays in 

 printing may make it necessary to post- 

 pone general distribution until the Con- 

 vention opens. The following programme 

 will be followed with minor changes, and 

 is given here for the benefit of those who are 

 planning to attend the Convention: —
