Comment

SOCIETIES OF AGRICULTURE, HORTICULTURE, FISHING AND HUNTING
The Agricultural Societies were free associations which had the task of discussing agricultural theories, improving methods, etc., and for whose establishment the law imposed no other condition than that of having their statutes approved by the prefectural authority. Those that are more specifically concerned with practical applications are called agricultural committees.
