BUSINESS SESSION 



Mr. Cook: As stated in my report yesterday, I think the 

 Federation Committee is needed, because the Federation Com- 

 mittee is certainly able to do a large amount of work for the 

 good of this organization. I will continue to work on this 

 committee if you want me to. Whatever I go into I go at 

 with the idea of doing something. 



A Member: I wish we could have a little longer sessions. 

 The fertilizer session lasted over the hour because we got 

 into the game after the speaker got through with his game. 

 He should have time to develop the subject, and then we 

 should have time to discuss it. 



Mr. Bonney: I realize this fact, that during Farmers' 

 Week every moment is occupied and every room is occupied. 

 If we could have a meeting of muck land growers exclusively, 

 if we could have a meeting of greenhouse men exclusively', or 

 truckers, every man would be interested intensely. 



President Greffrath : I believe it is a good suggestion. 

 I believe it would be well if our program were planned ac- 

 cording to this another year. 



Mr. Work: Do you all believe in that longer period idea? 



Mr. Hallauer: I do not think any of our sessions have 

 been carried on long enough for discussion. I think the dis- 

 cussions are sometimes more educational than the address. 



Mr. Bonney: Limit the speaker to fifteen minutes. 



A Member : I would not advise that. They ought to have 

 half an hour. 



President Greffrath : I think at present the only way 

 is to limit the speakers. 



Mr. Pickell : I believe two-hour sessions could be worked 

 to advantage. 



Mr. Bonney: You had better have them short and snap- 

 py and quit before you get through than to have them drawn 

 out. If you separate them, that will do away with a deal of 

 trouble. 



(A motion to adjourn was carried unanimously).
