The meeting was held In compli-
ance with a request made by several
citizens and was attended by about
sixty-five people. a considerable num-
Der OF whom were ladies. The board

In considering the great import
ance Of standardizing methods In
fruit culture and marketing. we again
resort to an illustration OF plant pro-
gression.
We will compare vegetation pro-
duced under natural conditions and
advantages with vegetation taken
and directed by the intelligent aid OF
man.
Under natural conditions, the per
centage Of fertilization in seif-perpet-
uating plants that reseed is very low
as compared TO the same number OF
seed artinciaiiy cultured.
Take as an illustration the tobacco
plant: 4 number of seed under nat
ural conditions will prove fertile and
terminate a very few OF the plants

that will mature. dwarfed by suck
ers and eaten by worms. viii be

same plant cultivated by man. the

worms destroyed. II VIII under or
binary conditions show nearly per-
feet results.
The best practical results from a
standardized method that is evident

notable heht against the leaf roller.
These results were obtained by those
who followed standardized methods.
patiently worked out and proven by
Messrs Weldon and GIN. The meth
ofs Of procedure In this fght were
not an accidental discovery. but the
methodieal working out Of ideas in a
practical way.
Some Of our methods in fruit rails
ing and marketing are too individual
lied.
We do not collectively work to-
Eether with a cooperative spirit for
the good OF the cause.
The fault Is not found with all as
you viii witness II you ever attend
a meeting Of the local Horticultural
society.
The growers OF this progressive so

The meetings OF this society are a
clearing house for the exchange of
ideas and methods employed in fruit
raising and their aim Is TO crystal
ize practical ideas expressed at these
meetings SO that the proper methods
viii be standardized by our growers
in successful fruit raising.
The failure OF poor methods en-
ployed is glaringly proven in our
codling moth spray by the inefficient
application OF many growers. The
