280 THE BEE-KEEPERS' REVIEW 



Last month the Review reported that the Iowa AffiHated Asso- 

 ciation had decided to employ an attorney as counsel for their mem- 

 bers, and had selected their counsel from a bee-keeper lawyer. 

 What is the matter with Attorney Jenner E. Morse, Saginaw, Mich., 

 president of the ^Michigan Affiliated Association, as counsel for the 

 ^Michigan Association? He knows the members' wants, both from 

 the members' and lawyer's standpoint — ^lorse ! Morse ! 



The California Association, also, has the counsel of an attorney. 

 Thev are on the ri^ht track. 



Adirondack Branch Meeting. 



The spring meeting of Adirondack Branch was held on May 

 10th at the home and apiary of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. B. Eddy, Ganse- 

 voort, N. Y., beginning at 10 :30 and lasting all day. 



The day was typical of the weather we have had in general 

 this spring, being cold and windy, and hardly fit to open up a colony 

 of bees. However, the members after partaking of a sumptuous 

 several-course dinner, served by the Eddys, assembled in the apiary 

 and held quite a long and interesting confab over several of the 

 most important subjects of interest to the members. 



About twenty were present, including members from Hudson, 

 Altamount, ^Melrose and other nearby places. 



A rising vote of thanks was tendered Mr. and Mrs. Eddy for 

 their hospitality, and the meeting adjourned to await the call of 

 executive committee. 



Our membership numbers 54. 



Herbert E. Gray, Secretary-Treasurer. 



Memorandum No. VII. 



To the Board of Directors: 



Summary of action of directors on memoranda. 



No. 1. Concerning Resolution No. 10, the directors are unani- 

 mously in favor of sending a copy of the resolution to the Secretary 

 of Agriculture at Washington. It is suggested that accompanying 

 the resolution, the aid of the "Xational'' and affiliated associations 

 should be promised. It is further suggested that the secretary be 

 instructed to follow up the resolution in order to ascertain what may 

 be the best procedure. As one director says, "the Bureau of En- 

 tomology should most certainly be requested to render every possible 

 assistance in securing a reliable honey crop report." It may be fur- 

 ther anticipated that possibly the editors of bee journals and possibly 

 honey buyers will furnish their co-operation.
