216 ILLINOIS DAIRYMEN'S ASSOCIATION. 



There being no other business to come before the directors 

 the meeting was duly adjourned. 



To the Directors of the Illinois Dairymen's Association: 



I have the honor to submit my report of the business of the 

 association for the year 1904-05, to the present time, including 

 all the receipts and expenses for the convention at Rockford, 

 January 10-12. 



As a preliminary to the report I wish to say that in making 

 preparations for the convention I had printed 1,000 programs, 

 1,000 entry blanks, 800 poster announcements of the meeting 

 and numerous articles and circulars. Of the programs 875 were 

 mailed to creameries and dairymen of the state. All the posters 

 were sent out with the request that they be conspicuously placed 

 and the articles at various times were run off on a proof press 

 and copies mailed to newspapers. Besides 250 of our annual 

 reports were sent out by mail, the cost being 11 cents each. 

 The items of money paid out and receipts follows : 



received.
