REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON RESOLUTIONS. 



Read by V. I. Spear. 



Resolved, That the Vermont Dairymen's Association desires to recog- 

 nize the many favors and courtesies extended to it which have con- 

 tributed to the success of this its twenty-ninth annual meeting and does 

 hereby extend its thanks: 



To the people of St. Johnsbury and the local committee of its citizens 

 for the aid furnished in supplying music and halls for meetings and 

 exhibits. 



To the hotels of St. Johnsbury for concessions granted. 



To the railroads of the State for reduced rates of fare over their lines. 



Resolved, That we ask our delegation in Congress to use all their 

 influence to secure the passage of a pure food law, whereby honest produc- 

 tion shall be relieved of unjust competition with the various forms of 

 adulterations now met with in our markets.
