c) Study Association of the State Agriculturists 

 and Agricultural Teachers 



Secretary's office : Rue de Linthout, a5, Brussels. 



This Association was founded for the intellectual impro- 

 vement of the associates. 



Each member makes an abstract of some agricultural 

 paper or publication ; the numerous analyses obtained are 

 published in the annual reports of the Bulletin of the 

 Association. 



Members meet twice a year, for scientific discussions. 



At these meetings some of the following subjects were 

 discussed : tests in cattle feeding, tests on telegraphic 

 transmission of weather forecasts; elementary agricul- 

 tural teaching was much discussed formerly. 



A study was made on tenures by lease (i). 



The Association organised a very interesting competi- 

 tion for plans of farms ; it will also publish a report which 

 will be a vademecum for the organisers of agricultural 

 shows (2). 



The Association edits a very interesting Bulletin 

 containing all the proceedings of the society (3). 



A very complete study of Belgian Agricultural Biblio- 

 graphy has been carried out by the Association and most 

 of the books are exhibited at the exhibition of St-Louis. 



The catalogue will be most useful to all Agricultural 

 Institutions (4). 



A similar association exists for lady agricultural and 

 dairy teachers. [Secretary: Mrs. Deleu, Borsbeke (Burst).]
