Book excerpt: Excerpt from 36th Annual Report of the State Horticultural Society of Missouri, 1893: Meetings at Columbia, June 6, 7, 8, and Fulton, Dec; 6, 7, 8, 1893 The following law was passed by the last Legislature incorporating the State Horticultural Society. The Executive Committee met soon after the passage of this act and accepted its provisions, and at the semi-annual meeting of the Society at Columbia June 6-7-8, 1893, the act was adopted as part of the constitution of the Society. Membership. Under the new constitution the law requires the payment of $1 per year for membership fee. We hope that we shall have a good long list of members under our new plan for business. The plan under which we have been working, of giving each local society the privilege of paying their fee into their local society, thus making them a member of the State Society, cannot now avail. Each person must become a member of the State Society and keep up his membership each year. We should like to see a good number of life members also; it is very desirable. Act of General Assembly. The Missouri State Horticultural Society is hereby instituted and created a body corporate, to be named and styled as above, and shall have perpetual succession, power to sue and be sued, complain and defend in all courts, and to make and use a common seal and alter the same at pleasure. The Missouri State Horticultural Society shall be composed of such persons as take an Interest in the advancement of horticulture in this State, who shall apply for membership and pay into the Society treasury the sum of one dollar per year, or ten dollars for a life membership, the basis for organization to be the Missouri State Horticultural Society, as now known and existing, and who to expenses have been borne and annual reports paid for by appropriations from the State treasury. The business of the Society, so far it relates to transactions with the State, shall be conducted by an executive beard, to be composed of the President, Vice-President, Second Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer, who shall be elected by ballot at an annual meeting of the Society; the Governor of tho State shall be ex officio a member of the Board - all other business of the Society to be conducted as its by-laws may direct. All appropriations made by the State for the aid of the Society shall be expended by means of requisitions to be made by order of the Board on the State Auditor, signed by the President and Secretary and attested with the seal; and the Treasurer shall annually publish a detailed statement of the expenditures of the Board, covering all moneys received by it.
