Owing to the unavoidable absence of Mr. John D.Evans, President of the Society, the chair was taken by the Vice-President, Dr. James Fletcher, Dominion Entomologist and Botanist, Ottawa. Among those present were: Rev. Dr. Eyles, Quebec; Mr. H.H. Lyman, Montreal; Mr. C.H. Young, Hurdman´sBridge; Mr. Arthur Gibson, Ottawa; Mr. C.C. James, Deputy Minister of Agriculture for Ontario; Messrs. J.B. Williams and C.W. Nash, Toronto; Mr. G.E. Fisher, Burlington; Rev. Dr. Bethune, London; President Creelman, Professors Lochhead, McCready, Sherman, Hutt, Reed, Messrs. Zavitz, Barlow, Jarvis, Hotson, Klugh, and others, Guelph. There were also present a large number of the young women students from the Macdonald Institute and of young men from the Agricultural College. At some of the meetings the attendance was over onri hundred. The Society was also favored with the presence of Professor John B.Smith, State Entomologist of New Jersey, and a Professor in Rutgers College, one of our honorary members. During the first morning a business meeting of the Council was held, at which the Treasurers report was received and adopted. Application was made by a number of gentlemen belonging to the Agricultural College and the Wellington Field Naturalists Club for the formation of a Guelph Branch of the Entomological Society of Ontario. The request was very heartily acceded to, and the Branch was inaugurated with an initial list of twenty-four members. Professor T.D. A. Cockerell, of the University of Colorado, Boulder, Colo., an eminent entomologist, especially distinguished by his work in the Coccidfp and Hymenoptera, was unanimously elected an honorary member. The members of the Society from a distance were very hospitably entertained at luncheon by President Creelman. In the afternoon Dr. Fletcher took the chair at 2.30 oclock, and called upon the Directors of the Society to read their reports on the noteworthy insects of the year in their respective divisions. The reports for the first three Divisions were read, and Mr. Fisher explained his inability to prepare a report for Division 4 owing to the pressure of business during the summer months. Prof. McCready also had no report to make for Division 5, as he bad removed from London to Guelph before the opening of the season, but his place was filled by Dr. Bethune. Reports On Insects Of The Year. Division No.1 Ottawa District. By C.H. Young, Hurdman sBridge.
