ADDRESS OF WELCOME. 



BY MAYOR MEYER, CEDAR RAPIDS. 



Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen: 



In behalf of the citizens of Cedar Rapids, I wish to bid this diary- 

 men's convention a brief welcome to our city. We sincerely hope that 

 while you are here it will be profitable both to yourselves and to all of 

 the citizens of the state in becoming more familiar with the methods of 

 handling dairy products. Cedar Rapids is doing what it can by enforcing 

 ordinances to clean up the milk supply. We have passed ordinances pro- 

 viding for tuberculin-tested milk, using the regular government score 

 card. It is therefore, with a great deal of pleasure that the city of Cedar 

 Rapids and the city council welcome this convention.
