BUILDINGS ERECTED DURING 1906.

The new machinery hall which was commenced last year has now been completed. It is a handsome red brick building, situated on the site of the old carpenter shop. It presents a fine appearance, is well lighted, and suitable in every way to the purpose for which it was built.

A large addition has also been added to the Chemical Laboratory. This is not yet completed, but when finished, will add very materially to the equipment of that department. This has been found necessary because of the large additional classes in chemistry from Macdonald Institute.

In the Poultry Department a new building has been erected, large enough to accommodate 200 hens. The Poultry Manager wishes to experiment with a large number of hens in one pen. This will give him the opportunity he desires.

OUTSIDE LECTURES.

A number of excellent lectures were delivered before members of our student body in Massey Hall at regular intervals during the year. These lectures proved very interesting and instructive, and we are obliged to these ladies and gentlemen for the assistance they have rendered us:

Dr. Abbott, Toronto, Ont.-"Education."

Mr. James Bowman, London, Ont.-"Pond Life."
Dr. A. P. Coleman, Toronto, Ont.-"South Africa."
Dr. J. Goggin, Toronto, Ont.-"Natural History."

Mrs. Mina B. Hubbard.-"A Woman's Way through the Wilds of Labrador."

Mr. C. C. James, Toronto, Ont.-"The Downfall of the Hurons-The first Chapter in the History of this Province.'

Mr. W. E. Saunders, London, Ont.-"Birds."

POULTRY INSTITUTE.

Probably no phase of agricultural work has made such rapid progress as the poultry industry during the last few years. Almost every day brings inquiries from farmers and others, and I am informed by the Deputy Minister of Agriculture that nearly every mail brings to him letters from residents of this Province for bulletins, reports, or general information in reference to the raising of fowl.

At the request of a number of those interested in poultry, we arranged last year for a Poultry Institute, to be held at the close of the Short Course in Poultry Raising. This was eminently successful; great interest was taken in the meeting, large numbers attended, and the report of the meeting, which was printed by the Department, has been in great demand. We hope to make this a permanent part of our work, and the Institute is already being arranged for 1907.

CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY.

During the year the Canadian Entomological Society transferred its headquarters from London, Ont., to the Ontario Agricultural College. This means that our students will have access to a large and valuable collection of insects, as well as to one of the best entomological libraries in America. It means also that the "Canadian Entomologist," of which our Professor of Entomology, Dr. C. J. S. Bethune, has charge, will be edited here. We welcome the Canadian Entomologists to the College and hope we may be able, by increasing the membership and by the increased interest our students and professors will take in the work, to justify the removal of the Society to this place.

CONCLUSION.

In conclusion, I wish to thank you, as Minister of Agriculture, for the continued personal interest you have taken in this Institution; and through you, your Deputy Minister, Mr. C. C. James, who has helped us on so many occasions and at so many points. We realize that as your Department grows, you have less and less time to devote to detail, and yet we have never appealed, either to yourself or your Deputy, without receiving immediately assistance and co-operation.

I have the honor to be,

Your obedient servant,
