ILLINOIS STATE DAIRYMEN*S ASSOCIATION. 2?7 



THIRD DAY— EVENING SESSION. 



The convention met pursuant to adjournment a 7:30 p. m. 



The report of the committee appointed upon the question of 

 dairy exhibit at Chicago was submitted as follows: 



Whereas, For the best interests of the dairy in the north- 

 west it is evident that an annual dairy exhibit should be made 

 at Chicago, and upon as nearly a national basis as possible; 



Whereas, The Illinois State Board of Agriculture affords 

 the only available opportunity for such an exhibit in connection 

 with the American Fat Stock Show ; 



Whereas, The immitation butters having usurped the 

 agencies provided by the state for the express purpose of pro- 

 moting the interests of the productive industries; and the fact 

 that butterine and oleomargarine are not products, neither are 

 the compounders of the same producers in the sense required 

 by law and in harmony with the duties of the State Board 

 of Agriculture. 



Therefore, be it Resolved^ That this, the Illinois State Dairy- 

 men's Association, in convention assembled, recommend that 

 measures be taken in this, and a request be made that similar 

 action be taken in other states, in view of making an exhibit of 

 dairy products commensurate with this great American indus- 

 try at the Fat Stock Show in Chicago in 1888, and thus assert 

 our rights as legitimate producers in a leading industry;
