VERMONT DAIRYMEN'S ASSOCIATION. 131 



BANQUET. 



THE SECOND ANNUAL BANQUET OF THE VEKMONT DAIRYMEN'S BUTTER 

 AND CHEESE MAKERS' ASSOCIATIONS WAS HEED IN THE BROOKS 

 HOUSE DINING ROOM, BRATTLEBORO, VERMONT, 

 WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 10, 1900. 



The proprietors of the house did themselves credit and were 

 equal to the emergency in every particular. Over three hun- 

 dred people were seated at the tables and were filled and many 

 baskets full left to be gathered up beside. 



With Col. Hooker as toast master it was not surprising that 

 the second annual banquet was a success. 



We would gladly write an extract of each toast at this ban- 

 quet but space forbids so will give only the names of the 

 speakers, their topics and the menu.
