52 ILLINOIS STATE DAIRYMEN'S ASSOCIATION 



A: — Seven o'clock. Generally half past six through our 

 work. 



Mr. Mason : — In running a farm, strictly a dairy farm, you 

 would be proud to show us those figures clear down. 



A : — I didn't learn my catechism right, gentlemen. 



By the President: — We are much obliged to Mr. Thomas. 

 I w^ish there were a few more to grind out as well. 



I wish to call your attention to the Exhibit Hall. It is 

 on VanBuren Street, just a block in that direction. There is a 

 sign across the walk showing where it is and there is where we 

 will hold tomorrow's session. The milk testing class will be 

 held in Exhibition Hall. Those who have samples of milk they 

 wish to bring in, can bring them in the morning before ten 

 o'clock and they will be used in the testing class. 



The meeting tonight will be held in this auditorium, and 

 the general subject is the city milk supply. The speakers are 

 Mr Lane, Mr. Truman and Mr. Schuknecht. Besides the 

 speakers we have our old friend, Mr. Lumbard, who will sing, 

 and every one who has attended dairy associations for the last 

 fifteen or twenty years have heard Mr. Lumbard sing and they 

 know what he is and all about him. He is a fine old gentleman 

 over 80. He belonged to the famous Lincoln quartet of civil 

 war times. 



The headquarters of the Association are at the Munroe. 

 We have a room over there and some one will be there most of 

 the time to answer any questions or give any information that 

 any one may want. 



Persons from a distance who have railroad certificates may 

 leave them there or here at the Secretary's desk to be signed. I 

 hope no one will forget to leave his certificate so we get the rate. 



Tomorrow afternoon's session is a joint session with the 

 Farmers' Institute of Will County, and will be held in the Opera 

 House. The speakers are Dean Davenport, Prof. Haecker and 

 O. C. Gregg. They are all men who are at the very top of the 

 dairy business. 



Tomorrow morning in the Exhibit Hall and all are welcome
