interested in jjonltrj join the association and help in the 

 work. A card addressed to me at 232 Summer Street, Boston, 

 will bring you an application blank and copy of the constitu- 

 tion and by-laws of the association. 



Mr. BuESLEY. As we are about closing this session, in be- 

 half of the State Board of Agriculture I will move a formal 

 vote of thanks to the Middlesex jSTorth Agricultural Society, 

 the Dracut Grange, the Lowell Grange, and our associate on 

 the Board, Mr. George W. Trull, for what has been done by 

 each and every one of them to make our stay here so pleasant 

 and profitable. 



Mr. Isaac Damon. I think perhaps I have attended as 

 many of these meetings as most members of the Board. Some 

 years ago we held a meeting at South Framingham, under the 

 auspices of the Middlesex South Agricultural Society, which 

 I have always thought one of the best meetings we have held ; 

 but I think the time has come when we must take off our hats 

 to the Middlesex North Agricultural Society, and that this is 

 perhaps the best meeting I have ever attended. I take great 

 pleasure in seconding that motion. 



Mr. Henry S. Turner. I have attended many of these 

 meetings, but I must say that this one has given me the great- 

 est satisfaction of any. We have not only had some really 

 excellent speakers, but also good listeners, and they are needed 

 at all these meetings. I wish also to second the motion that we 

 extend our thanks to the organizations and individuals who 

 have co-operated so well with us. 



Carried unanimously. Meeting adjourned.
