132 THIRTY-FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE 



Mr. Hitchcock. — I want to say in regard to the resolutions, the work 

 is mine, and I feel a great many may think I have overstated the case, 

 that I have been extravagant, but I have endeavored to make this reso- 

 lution extremely moderate; make it such that any man throughout the 

 State who knows anything about the subject can go the whole length 

 of it. 



I want to say that this resolution will probably be varied in the 

 records of the Association, but the members of the Dairymen's Asso- 

 ciation of Vermont, if they see fit so to do, have it in their power to 

 become missionaries in their homes to extend the knowledge of what 

 this college is doing for Vermont and what it can do if its hands are 

 upheld. With that knowledge extended through the State, the result 

 will be more far reaching than if the thing is left simply to the action 

 of the Legislature without any impression from outside. If the Legis- 

 lature can be made to know what the intelligent farmer or intelligent 

 dairyman of Vermont knows I think something can be done in this 

 matter. 



President Bruce. — You have heard this resolution; what will you 

 do with it? 



Mr. Aitken.— I move you, sir, that the resolution be accepted and 

 adopted. 



Motion seconded, put to vote and carried and the resolution was 

 adopted. 



Dairyman. — I wish to say I think this resolution is mild enough. I 

 have got some boys growing up that I want to have come to the 

 dairy school by and by, and I want it to be something where they will 

 learn something, and I am willing to go to the bottom of my pocket to 

 help support it.
