VERMONT DAIRYMEN'S ASSOCIATION. 



Resolutions. 



At the close of this, the thirty-fourth annual meeting of the Vermont 

 Dairymen's Association, its members desire to give public expression 

 of their deep appreciation of the numerous courtesies extended by the 

 good people of Burlington, and of the aid given by all towards increasing 

 the pleasures and benefits of the gathering, and especially they desire to 

 convey to his honor, the Mayor of Burlington, their sincere thanks for 

 his untiring efforts which have contributed so largely to the universally 

 recognized success of the meeting. 



They express the feeling of loss they feel in company with all the 

 citizens of the State, at the recent death of the venerable Stephen 

 Thomas of Montpelier, who was one of the first few individuals to 

 contribute and aid, as a member, our organization at its feeble begin- 

 ning. They also mourn the loss of other members who have during 

 the past year ceased to be of this world. 



The members of this Association further place upon record their 

 unanimous wish that the Legislature of the State at its next session 

 shall make such an appropriation as shall provide and equip a building 

 at the State University and Agricultural College which shall not only be 

 adequate for the needs of the college in carrying forward the work of 

 instruction in the various departments of agriculture, and especially in 

 dairying, but also fairly represent upon the University grounds the most 

 important industry of the State. To this end they urge upon the farmers 

 that they investigate the work now being done at the college and 

 thereby gain a better understanding of present needs and future possi- 

 bilities of benefit in Vermont.
