thanks for his splendid work at Wash- 

 ington. This was a rising vote. 



The secretary read a number of letters 

 from various places extending a cordial 

 invitation to the association for its next 

 meeting. Among these were Atlantic 

 City, Put-in-Bay, Ohio, and Portland, 

 Ore. The secretary of the Board of 

 Commerce of Niagara Falls was present, 

 to invite the association to make the 

 Falls the meeting place in 1909. H. W. 

 Wood, of Louisville, invited the associa- 

 tion to meet in his city in 1909. A 

 straw vote was taken on the question, 

 about one-half the votes cast being in 

 favor of Niagara Falls. This matter is 

 now in the hands of the executive com- 

 mittee to decide. The above vote is 

 merely a pointer for them to go by. 



Election of Officers. 



Officers were elected at the final ses- 

 sion, June 25, as follows: 



President — Watson S. Woodruff, Orange, Conn. 



First Vice-President— J. C. Koblnson, Water- 

 loo, Neb. 



Second Vice-President — M. H. Duryea, New 

 York. 



Secretary and Treasurer — C. E. Kendel, Cleve- 

 land. 



Assistant Secretary — Leonard H. Vanghan, 

 Clilcago. 



Executive committee — George S. Green, Chi- 

 cago; Charles Dickinson, Chicago; Howard M. 

 Earl, Philadelphia; C. M. Page, Des Moines, 

 la.; S. F. WUliard, Wethersfleld, Conn. 



Membership committee — Albert McCnllough, 

 Cincinnati; Leonard H. Vaughan, Chicago; 

 F. W. Bolglano, Washington. 



After the introduction and brief ad- 

 dress of the newly elected president, 

 J. C. Robinson, on behalf of the mem- 

 bers, presented M. Green with a large 

 silver berry bowl as a slight token of 

 appreciation of his efforts during his 

 term of office. 



A feature of the session was a letter 

 from the National Prosperity Associa- 

 tion of St. Louis, in which the secre- 

 tary called attention to the continued 

 improvement that has been made in busi- 

 ness conditions, remarking: 



"The United States is large enough 

 to carry on a presidential campaign 

 and successful business at the same time. 

 It will not be necessary to wait until 

 1909 for an improvement in business." 



President Green said: "Just write 

 the prosperity men a letter and tell them 

 that we seedsmen are doing business 

 and then some." 



A letter was received from A. T. Fer- 

 rel & Co., Saginaw, inviting the mem- 

 bers of the association and their friends 

 to visit their place in Saginaw in a body 

 on Friday, June 26. It was apparent 

 that the invitation came too late, as 

 most of the members had already pro- 

 cured their tickets for home. It was
