In the eight months they have made 2.">U pounds of Initter each. We 

 did not hope to reach the 300 score, but you can readily see that we are

 on things of this kind than we, therefore I say it must have been good 

 luck. 



(Applause.) 



Chairman Johu.son: I think that the resolution committee is now 

 ready to report. If so, we will have that report at this time by Mr. 

 Knox.

Whereas, it is brought to the attention of this Association that death 

 has removed from his responsible position of active work in behalf of the 

 dairy interests of the country our chief of the Dairy Division, Major
