TWENTIETH ANNUAL MEETING. 49 



the summer after the blossoms had gone — in May, the early 

 part of July and then August, again. 



A Member: Do you burn them off after mowing? 



Mr. Wheeler : No, I never burn them. I don't think 

 it a good practice. I think it hurts the crowns too much to 

 burn them ; there is a great deal of dead stuff, and it would 

 burn too deeply. 



Tpie President: I am sorry, but we have got to shut 

 off this interesting discussion at this time. It is time to ad- 

 journ for lunch. We have a full afternoon's program, and 

 we have got a large number of questions here to be dis- 

 cussed. 



Meeting then adjourned tmtil 1.30 P. M.
