reputation for himself ; he is swallowed up in the whole. It 

 takes time to earn a reputation; once earned it is as good as 

 capital invested; it is a "trade mark," and has its real value. 

 Some milk could at all times be fed to calves and hogs with 

 profit 



B. Cox asked Dr. W. what he received by his plan for his 

 milk, per gallon. 



Dr. WoowAKD could not at this time give the exact net price 

 he had received; it was evident he had done better than those 

 who took their milk to a common cheese factory. A dairy- 

 man with boys to bring up should by all means work up his 

 milk. 



S. W. KiNGSLEY inquired as to how many cows one man 

 could care for by his plan. 



Dr. Woodward thought the labor was reduced at least one 

 fourth. 



Prof. Hall — How do you care for your milk in cold weather ? 



Dr WooDWAKD — Set my milk in pans two feet deep; hang 

 them up in winter, and regulate the temperature in the usual 

 way by artificial heat. 



Dr. Tefft — Why not let them remain same as in summer? 



Dr. Woodward — Could not regulate the temperature as well. 



R. E. Stone said Dr. Woodward's was very similar to the 

 factory plan. He regulated his temperature by steam; could 

 not heat as evenly by stoves. Ice houses were now used by 

 all factories. Last year in hot weather the dividends were 

 small, but only for two months. 



A vote of thanks was here tendered Mr. M. H. Thompson, 

 secretary of the Association, for his labors and services in 

 building up and maintaining the Association 



On motion of R. P. McGtLINCY the executive committee 

 were instructed to pay the secretary such compensation for 

 his services as in their judgment would be just and adequate 

 for the labor performed .
