NEW YORK STATE INTERESTED. 



""PHE formation of "Agricultural Improvement Associa- 

 1 tion of the State of New York," with noted railroad- 

 men, publicists, Eastern boosters, and farseeing citizens 

 generally, with the adoption of the National Irrigation 

 Congress' "home-making on the land" motto, is a move- 

 ment that is likely to produce a substantial delegation from 

 New York at the Eighteenth National Irrigation Congress, 

 Pueblo, September 26-30. 



Word of this organization in New York was conveyed 

 immediately to Secretary Arthur Hooker and other con- 

 gress officials here, and the assurance given that there 

 would be representation from the new movement at the 

 big congress here next fall. 



This organization was formed at a recent meeting held 

 in New York City, addressed by Secretary James Wilson 

 of the United States department of agriculture and pro- 

 ceedings of the conference will shortly be issued. Weld- 

 ing Ring, president of the New York Produce Exchange, 

 was one of the movers in the campaign, and has written 

 Secretary Hooker expressing his desire to cooperate with 

 the National Irrigation Congress in its development work. 



President W. C. Brown of the New York Central 

 lines is another interested person in this movement, and 

 he has also written Secretary Hooker relative to the mat- 

 ter. Mr. Brown was invited by the board of governors 

 of the National Irrigation Congress to address the Eigh- 

 teenth sessions at Pueblo, September 26-30, but writes 

 that he expects to be in Europe at the time and cannot 

 accept the invitation. He expresses his good wishes, 

 however, for the congress, and says there should be close 

 cooperation in all endeavors along improvement and de- 

 velopment lines that have to do with better agricultural 

 conditions throughout the country and especially in the 

 East. 



Vice-President George T. Nicholson of the Atchison, 

 Topeka & Santa Fe is also interested in this cooperation 

 and cites approvingly the work of the colonization and in- 

 dustrial departments of his road. Mr. Nicholson has been 

 appointed a delegate to the Eighteenth congress by Gov- 

 ernor Deneen of Illinois, and will make an endeavor to 

 be present.
