of the
NORTHERN NUT GROWERS ASSOCIATION
(Incorporated)
September 17, 18 and 19, 1930
CEDAR RAPIDS, IOWA
The first session convened at 10 o'clock at the Hotel Montrose, President Neilson in the chair.
The President: We have a long and varied program to present, and inasmuch as we have only one day for the discussions it will be necessary to make the best use of our time. First we will read letters and telegrams from members who are not able to come.
The Secretary: This letter is from Dr. Morris.
"I was counting on getting out to the Nut Growers' Association meeting this year and having the pleasure of seeing all of my old friends once more and getting the inspiration that fills the air at our meetings. I find it absolutely necessary, however, to cut off all distractions until I can get two books finished. Work upon them has been delayed and the line of thought changed so often that it becomes a duty to confine myself to literary work, but I hope to be with you during our next twenty meetings."
This telegram is from Mr. Bixby.
