 meetings. To the general reader we commend the papers and dis-

 these transactions these papers, etc., in condensed form, may be

In this conneclion it is a pleasure to state that I am under obliga- 

 tion in many ways to Secretary McKeen, who has shown himself 

 an active factor in promoting the interests of agriculture in Maine. 

 At all times he has cordially aided us, and his assistance has been 

 of the most efficient nature.
