Excellent Addresses

The law creating a state board OF
horticulture designates certain duties
of said board, among which Is the FOL
lowing: To call together and hold, in
conjunction with horticultural socie-
ties, public meetings of those inter
ested in horticulture and kindred pur-
suits. Wyoming having no organized
agricultural or horticultural society, 1t
seemed to the members Of the board
of horticulture that the occasion of the
state fair would be an opportune time
for the holding of a public meeting
of all those in the state who are inter-
ested in fruit growing. The call for
such a meeting was widely published
in the press of the state. AS a result
upwards of 100 people assembled in
the opera house at Douglas on Septem-
Der 26, at 8 p. M, to hear the addresses
promised for the occasion.
Or. Nelson as Chairman.
Acting in behalf of the board of hor-
ticulture, under whose auspices the
meeting had been called, the secretary
Of the board, DR.. Aven Nelson, called
the meeting to order and acted as
chairman during the session. He
stated the conditions that had led up
to the meeting, and outlined the pur-
poses that were in mind.
Buffum Makes Address.
In the absence Of MI. w. w. Wolfe
of Wheatland, who was to have spoken
on "yNindbreaks," Prof. B. C. Buffum
was in troduced. He spoke most inter
%estingty, though extemporaneously, on
the necessity of using varieties suited
to our particular conditions. He said
that the successful pioneer apple
grower, MI. Ed Young of Lander, holds
that there are four conditions essential
to success in fruit growing, namely:
% Good soil, ca elevation for air
drainage, (3) windbreaks, az water.
Prof. Buffum added and discussed a
fifth, namely, the securing, through
breeding or otherwise, Of varieties
suited to our environment. At the
close of Prof. Buffum's address. Prof.
Nelson added hat in many instances
all these conditions had been met and
yet failure had resulted from a lack of
