this letter had come from Dr. Morris. If the Confer- 
ence was to be a Conference at all each delegate must 
be allowed to have his own ideas. It was useless to 
hold it if everything was to proceed on the lines Dr. 
Morris thought l^est. 
Mr. Wieting thought the Society should have sent a 
copy of the Report after it was read before the Society. 
Tlie President said that a copy of the Report had 
been forwarded since Dr. Morris wrote, and suggested 
that the Secretary should write and inform him that the 
Society did not consider Mr. Scard's report as an attack 
on the Conference. He thought that Mr. Scard had 
thrown out some good suggestions and he agreed with 
what Mr, Bell and Mr. Garnett had said. 
Letters from the Planters' Association and the Board 
of Agriculture in reference to the proposed representa- 
tion of the colony at the Toronto Exhibition were read. 
On the motion of the President, seconded by Mr. 
Wieting, the Hon. Geo. Garnett and Mr. ^Eneas Mackay 
were appointed representatives to the joint Committee 
proposed by the Planters' Association and the Hon. 
Geo. Garnett representative to the joint Committee 
proposed by the Board of Agriculture. 
The Librarian laid over copies of the Society's Journal 
for 1901, and the Supplement to the Library Catalogue 
for the same year. 
The thanks of the Society were accorded for the 
following donations : —
