ILLINOIS STATE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY : DISTRICT REPORTS 1 series 1864-1868 Congressional districts adopted by Horticultural Society for local work. serial Under the constitution of 1856, providing that vice- presidents shall be chosen, one from each con- gressional district, and who shall be, ex-offlclo, the executive committee of the society. The amend- ments made from time to time, before 1870, did not affect this provision. The by-laws of 1864 provided that the vice-presidents " shall endeavor to organize local societies, obtain accurate informa- tion of the condition and progress of horticulture therein, and report annually, in writing, to the Society." The final direction seems to have been but Irregularly observed, as is shown by the following collation. 1 District 1865-1868. Rept. of vice-president.

State Horticultural Society, conflicted with the former custom of the election, by the State Hortic. Socy., of one member to represent resp. the seven horti- cultural districts of the state. As it was deemed desirable to continue the publication of district reports the Executive Board decided (Trans. 111. State Hortic. Socy. n. s. v. 8 : 173) to appoint one person In each of the seven horticultural sub- divisions, the same to constitute a General Com- mittee on Horticulture. In 1882 the Executive Board (Trans. 111. State Hortic. Socy. n. s. v. 16 : 220) decided to omit the General Committee the following year. It seems never to have been re- appointed. 1 District Boundary as In 2 series. 1875-1882.
