B., was held in the open air of the school grounds, School Cross Road, on Fri- day evening, July 7. Several dis- cussions took place on communica- tions read by the secretary, one of which was the enforcement of the pound bylaw act for North Saanich, when it was found that owing to the expense which would accrue to -the district it was decided to drop%the matter until a more convenient time. The most important discus- sion of the evening was the probable shortage of hay for the coming win- ter, and the secretary was asked to make enquiries into the possible needs of the United Farmer members and others in the district who. may require hay, it being left to Mr. Geo. Clark, of Patricia Bay to find out if there will be any local or Island hay for sale. It is pleasant to record that there were seven new members nominated and accepted at this meeting. Just a fe wwords were said to- wards the close of the meeting re- garding the shipment of the season’s fruit, and although there may have to be some little adjustments for the first year, things seem to be working very satisfactorily.
