Ciom, after which the minute ol the prevbu meeting were read by the secretary, J. O, l'ila bury. E. E Charman, chairman of the committee on membemliip aubmitted the name of J. U. Campbell, N. M. Moody, A. W. Cheney, L. W. Loder and M. E. Rain for membtmhip, and on motion they were duly elected. Tlie resignation of Mr. I'ilabury as secretary having been handed in and accepted, L. W. Loder was duly elected to that poeition T. L. Charman, chairman of the bee' sugar committee reported that his com mittee had diHtribuled over 100 packages of beet aeed to farmers in this county and that they have every asaurance that some splendid samples of beets would be furniahed the committee by the men to whom seed had been giyen. Charles Meeerve, chairman of the committe on exploitation of the resour ces of the county, reported that bis committee was receiving flattering encouragement from the busineis men and farmer of the county ami that the board would be able to secure a fine exhibit of the agricultural, mineral and manufactured products of the county. The question of flax and hemp culture coming up, general discussion of the industry was had and much valuable information was gleaned aa to the amount of flax fibre used on this Coast in netting twine and other purposes, besides the amount of oil and oil-cake imported as also the amount of hemp fibre used in the manufacture of cordage. On motion, the president appointed a committee of five, consisting of J. A. Thayer. E. E. Williams, D. H. Glass, E. C. Hamilton and Joseph Rice, to in vestigate the advisability of introducing flax and hemp culture in Clackamas county, and t her were authorized to procure both flax and hemp seed and distribute it among our farmers that a thorough test may be made, as lo the quality of fibre that can be produced in this section. E. E Charman read a communication from a man in Prince Edward Island to J. U. Campbell, inquiring as to the inducements that would be afforded for the erection of a starch factory in Ore gon City. As Clackamas county raise more potatoes than any other county in the Bt.ile, a starch factory to use up the surplus crop of potatoes is one of the greatest needs of our farmers. It was decided to fee what could be done toward getting a starch factory located here and a committee composed of J. U. Campbell, E. E. Charman and W. A. Huntley was appointed to take the matter in hand. The road question coming up, a general discussion was had on this ever peitinent and present top'.o and the county court was freely commended and criticised for the manner in which the road work had been carried on during the past year. A motion was carried instructing the road committee to inter view the county court regarding the improvement of the road leading to Staf ford and the one leading to Clackamas and also to see what could be done to ward getting a new road established south from the city by way of Broder ick's park and Canemah connecting on the hill with the New Era road. At the suggestion of President Cross the date for Willamette Valley Water way convention Bet to be held in this city on June 6 was changed to Friday, August 6. The change was made in order that a greater interest could be worked up for the convention and also that our members in congress who will be at home during the summer can be present.
