 dollars. The state associations of Illinois, Wisconsin and Nebraska 

 are members of that association and I understand the association of 

 fairs of Michigan are going to apply for membership, and as the 

 chairman of the membership committee is here, he is president of 

 your state board of agriculture, he can tell you in a few words the 

 benefits that this association would derive by taking a membership
