BOSTON: BUTTON AND WENTWORTH, PRINTERS, No. 87, CoNQRKSs Street. 18 5 2. MASSACHUSETTS BOARD OF AGRICULTURE. In publishing the Transactions of the Massachusetts Board of Agriculture, it may not be uninteresting to give a sketch of the origin of the Board, with some account of the doings of the Convention, which immediately preceded it. At a meeting of the Trustees of the Norfolk Agricultural Society, January 28, 1851, it was voted, " that the president and secretaries be a committee to mature and adopt a plan for a convention of delegates from the various agricultural socie- ties of the Commonwealth, to be holden at some convenient time and place, the object of which shall be to concert meas- ures for their mutual advantage, and for the promotion of the cause of agpcultural education." In the discharge of their duty, the president, Marshall P. Wilder, and the secretaries, Edgar K. Whitaker and Ed- ward L. Keyes, as this committee, addressed communications to the presidents of the several agricultural societies in the State, who cordially approved of the plan of the convention and united in calling it. The convention was accordingly announced to be holden at the State House, in Boston, on Thursday, March 20th, 1851, and in order to increase the in- terest and usefulness of the occasion, the officers and trustees of the abovenamed societies, and such delegations as might represent them, were invited to attend.
