102 ILLINOIS DAIRYMEN'S ASSOCIATION. 



A. — Perhaps that is true. I don't keep anything but Ayrshires — pure 

 Ayrshires on the other farms, too. 



Q. — But you won't persuade others to have Ayrshires? 



A. — The Ayrshire cow is a good cow, bult I don't believe in pressing 

 cows. 



Q. — Do you feed your own cows all season? 



A. — I never feed my cows meal in summer — I think they live longer. I 

 don't feed them up and then get rid of them. 



Q. — Do you use silage? 



A. — We dare not use silage where I live. We sell milk to the con- 

 densing factories and in Chicago and they won't allow us to use silage. 

 We can't do that. I would like too and think it good feed. It is as good 

 feed as can be found if he takes care of and feeds it right, but the average 

 man up there won't take milk where silage has been fed up there. 



By the President. — 



I would like to meet these five gentlemen either now or this afternoon 

 at 4 o'clock. Would it be convenient Mr. Hatch, to meet right away? 



A. — Yes, sir. 

 By the President. — 



Very well, we will meet now. 



The last dairy report is at the door and any one of the members or 

 friends are welcome to take one as they go out. 



Tonight Prof. Praser will talk to us in the Physics Lecture room.
