Agricultural and Commercial Society. 95 
of the publications issued, from which I have made a 
selection of what seems to me the most interesting as 
relating to the objects and usefulness of the Department, 
many of the leaflets dealing with the subjects applicable 
more or less to our local circumstances, but with possible 
modifications as a matter of course. 
The following is a list of the publications laid over : — 
Industrial and Agricultural Ireland (profusely illustrated), being the 
handbook prepared for the Irish Pavilion at the Glasgow Inter- 
national Exhibition, 1901. 
General Reports of the Department of Agriculture and Technical 
Education, 1900-1901. 
Report of the Irish Agricultural Organisation Society (Limited). 
30 Leaflets and Memoranda, dealing with the following subjects : — 
Insect pests on animals and plants ; special diseases in cattle, 
calves, sheep and swine ; mutual live stock Insurance ; potato 
blight and spraying mixtures and apparatus ; the use and purchase 
of manures ; tobacco growing ; Agricultural co-operation and 
education ; co-operative dairies, creamery management ; fruit 
farming ; Pasteurisation of milk and cream ; co-operative poultry 
societies. 
The President expressed a hope that there would be 
a large attendance of members at the next meeting, at 
which the election of office-bearers for 1903 would take 
place. 
The meeting then terminated.
