No. 4.] REPORT OF DAIRY BUREAU. 



407 



Thoroughbred Jersey, Ten Years Old, Four Months in Milk (James 

 Freeland, Sutton, Mass.). 



This educational work is sometimes discouraging, on ac- 

 count of the failure to see immediate results. It is often 

 like the seed put away out of sight. But we believe that a 

 harvest of increased intelligence and profit is inevitable, 

 though in the future. 



The duty of representing the State at the National Con- 

 vention of Dairy and Food Commissioners has also fallen 

 upon me. These conferences of persons engaged in similar 

 work are very valuable, tending to promote efficiency of 

 action. 



The following is the manner in which the appropriation 

 of $7,000 has been expended : —
