BUSINESS SESSION 



161 



Mr. Hallauer: I would suggest that we have two sum- 

 mer meetings during the coming season, the time and place 

 of those meetings to be left to the Executive Committee to 

 decide, the members to be notified by mail. It may be you 

 would want one meeting to interest the greenhouse and gar- 

 den people, another to interest the muck people, yet it would 

 be a general invitation to all. 



President Greffrath : I really believe it would create a 

 feeling that would be beneficial to the Association. 



Mr. Hallauer : I would make a motion that we have tw- o 

 meetings appointed the coming summer. (Seconded). 



Mr. Warren: Would that mean a whole day's session? 

 Would there be just a short meeting and then a visit to the 

 gardens ? 



President Greffrath: It would be a sort of educational 

 meeting. 



Mr. Warren: If the Executive Com.mittee wished to 

 come in our section, would they come to Rochester or would 

 they come to Irondequoit? We have a good big place, but 

 what we w^ant to know is whether they are coming there to 

 look around or not, so we could be prepared to take them 

 around? 



President Greffrath: Knowing what I do of Ironde- 

 quoit, I do not think they would have to walk a great deal. 



Mr. Hay : They certainly took good care of us when the na- 

 tional association meeting was held in Rochester. 



Mr. Work: Before that motion is put, I would say there 

 is another thing some of us have been talking about. I have 

 been thinking about it a couple of weeks and have placed it 

 before a number of men, including the Executive Committee. 

 The thought was that, before the feeling of this meeting is 

 entirely cold, we might hold a series of meetings in other 

 places, that we might organize a team that would give as 

 good a one-day program as we have a three-day program here. 

 If the local people wanted it and were willing to support it. 

 we could start in at Long Island and go to Troy, Syracuse, 

 Rochester, Buffalo or Dunkirk, and hold five meetings sue-
