committee will prepare resolutions for- 

 mally voicing the feelings of the asso- 

 ciation regarding our loss. 



Tlie material affairs of the associa- 

 tion have, on the whole, prospered. We 

 have suffered comparatively little from 

 the operations of legislators. An un- 

 usually large crop of unusually stupid 

 bills — the exact number is 118 — has re- 

 ceived the attention of our state cor- 

 respondents, and under the able direc- 

 tion of our attorney and the legisla- 

 tive committee the bills as a rule have 

 been satisfactorily met with. If any 

 laxness has appeared, it has not been 

 at headquarters. 



The Defense Against Unfair Laws. 



The trend of the year has been 

 toward centralizing more than ever be- 

 fore tlie responsibility for directing the 

 association's legislative defense. The 

 task has grown to such proportions that 

 it takes up too much time for any 

 seedsnlan to administer its details. The 

 association ought never again to im- 

 pose upon anyone the volume of work 

 it gave to Messrs. Scarlett and Boyles. 

 Upon our attorney and liis assistants 

 should be placed eacli year this in- 

 creasing burden. 



In tills connection I desire to say 

 that I have had an opportunity as an 

 official to observe the work of the at- 

 torney's office, and I have been im- 

 pressed by the enlargement of the du- 

 ties of the attorney. From a small be- 

 ginning our needs have grown to re- 

 quire not merely the occasional atten- 

 tion of a lawyer in general practice, 

 but also tlie direction of a specialist 

 and trained assistants, all of whom give 

 their time to the needs of seedsmen and 

 nurserymen. The Ruction performed 

 by our attorney is most important and 

 should continue to expand. Every 

 year's experience adds to his value and 

 to the volume of the work it is found 

 desirable to give him. I recommend 

 that Curtis Xye Smith be retained in 

 this position. 



. The Business of Tagging Seeds. 



As time has developed the complex- 

 ities of seed control, it is gratifying to 

 see how nearly those who administer 

 and those who work under seed laws
