VVin-reas by an Act of the Local Legis-

And whereas in some instances it has been difficult to secure the required num- ber of persons in a. section of country.
Therefore Resolved that the Depart-
ment of Agriculture he asked to have the Statute amended so that where the membership does not- amount in numbers tnsixty that the persons so wishing to_ form a society may do so providing they have the lninlmum membership of thirty`_ persons anrl also providing that wlmfcvir number may belong to the Society, under sixty, the fee from each shall he such that thc total fee will amount to Fiftcenl Dollars ($l5.00)nnd in such case will hc' entitled to the Government grant. of Twenty Dollars ($20.)
\‘Vhereas the other Provinces of the
Dominion of Canada have instituted short. courses in Live Stock Judging which have proven very successful and beneficial to the farmers of those Provinces; And whereas the Live Stock interests of. this Province are the most important to our farmers today: Therefore resolved that the Local Department of Auriculturc he asked to take steps to have short courses in Live Stock Judging held ata certain period in each year in some central part of this Province.
