Mr. L. Haseman: It seems to me that for several years we have had 
no way of finding out anything of those countries. 
Mr. E. F. Phillips: The situation is not favorable for taking up the 
necessary investigations in any of those countries. 
Secretary G. M. Bentley presented a resolution stating that on ac¬ 
count of the amount of apicultural matter that was being published in 
the Journal of Economic Entomology, that the Section bring to the at¬ 
tention of the general association the desirability of having one member 
of the Section on the Advisory Board of the Journal. He stated that 
this resolution was offered not as a criticism of the present management 
but with the desire to make the Section of Apiculture as effective as 
possible. 
The resolution was adopted. 
The Committee on Nominations recommended the following officers 
for the ensuing year: Chairman, S. B. Fracker; Secretary, G. M. 
Bentley. 
The report was accepted and the members named elected.
