. American bee journal. Bee culture; Bees. THE AMERICAN BEE JOURNAL. 763 Laws" proposed by Mr. Thomas G. Newman, reported as follows : We recognize, with no light grati- tude, the great labor and thought be- stowed by Mr. Newman upon the plan of organization he has presented. We have given it all the thought and consideration that our limited time would permit, and in view of the sweeping changes suggested, and the somewhat intricate and involved plan proposed, we recommend that the consideration of the matter be post- poned for one year, and that the pro- posed Constitution and By-Laws be printed with the proceedings of this convention, and that after a year's thought and careful consideration we may be better able to present a re- port commensurate with an impor- tant subject. The request of the committee was granted, and it was requested to re- port at the tirst session of the next annual meeting. The following letter John Aspinwall, of Barrytown, N. Y., was read by the Secretary: I am extremely anxious to see a national representative organization, and I believe that it can be made a great success if we will all " put our shoulders to the ; I hope that the members of the convention will advance as much as is in their power, the formation of a representative organization. I will send the Bee- Keepers' Magazine free to every mem- ber (National, State and County) who shall be afSliated to the organization, as soon as such is formed ; and will stand by this offer for two years Ht least, after the organization is ef- fected. 1 wish you all the greatest success, and say, hurrah for the new representative organization! A discussion then followed on. The Chapiuau Houey-Plaiit. Prof. Cook—I should like to know the feeling in regard to whether it is advisable to try to induce the govern- ment to add the Chapman honey- plant to the list of seeds that it sends out free. M. M. Baldridge—I do not favor planting anything for honey alone. A. I.
