MR. KYNER: I have no speech. I simply want to vote "aye" for Stamford and New York.
(Vote taken.)
THE SECRETARY: The result is as follows: For Evansville, 2; Stamford, 10; Battle Creek, 3; Petersburg, 3; Lancaster, 1; for Chicago, San Francisco and the National Nut Growers, 0.
THE PRESIDENT: We are now ready, I believe, to proceed with the technical part of the programme. The chair would like to call for information as to the relative behavior of the Northern pecans, top-worked or transplanted. Is there, for example, any evidence anywhere as to the fruiting of any Northern pecan except on the parent tree?
MR. MCCOY: Mr. Wilkinson, in Indiana, has some top-worked bearing trees.
THE PRESIDENT: Unfortunately, they are right at home. What varieties has he?
MR. MCCOY: The Major.
THE PRESIDENT: And how old was it before he top-worked it?
MR. MCCOY: Three years, I think.
THE PRESIDENT: On pecan?
