The Long- Dairy Institute was held at Hudson. Bad roads lessened 

 the attendance, but we learned afterwards, what we did not know before, 

 that the dairy interest in the vicinity of Hudson was not the leading 

 interest. As a consequence there was not the intense enthusiasm evoked 

 by the dairy meeting that there was by the Fruit Institute. 



The following is the program:
