FIFTY-FIRST ANNUAL CONVENTION g3 



Mr. Wilson : I had not thought about saying anything, 

 because I know really very little about the dairy business, 

 but I am talking to some people who do know about it and 

 I find them very enthusiastic. 



I have enjoyed these talks this afternoon and I want to 

 say something about a question I received in the mail the 

 other day concerning something we have always made fun 

 of, planting potatoes in the light of the moon. Since I have 

 heard that explained here, I am going to answer that ques- 

 tion and say that I think it is alright to plant potatoes in the 

 light of the moon, because it has been proven to be practical 

 and of benefit. 



I think dairying in Southern Illinois has a wonderful 

 future. At the last session of the Illinois Legislature, 

 through the efforts and direction of Stanard, I was the 

 means of getting a bill through the Legislature that has 

 helped you or will help you in the future. It is a strike at 

 oleo and prohibits the publishing of anything that would 

 give a tinge of milk to things that are not milk. 



That is one thing I have done for this State that will 

 help you, and I assure that, whenever there is anything else 

 that will help you, you may depend upon me to do what I 

 can. 



Mr. O'Hair: We are just coming to the end of a very 

 successful convention. I liave enjoyed every minute of it. 



You have heard a great deal and have been told to 

 think about it. If you don't follow the advice you have 

 received and put these things into practice, don't kick about 

 conditions. 



Now, I am glad that we had a good convention, and I 

 am sorry to leave Carbondale, because we have had such a 

 wonderful time. 



Is there anyone who has any questions to ask about 

 these talks?
