RESOLUTIONS. 



To the President and Members of the Illinois Dairymen's Asso- 

 ciation : 



Gentlemen — We your committee on resolutions beg leave to 

 submit the following partial report, viz. : 



That in order that our official name may correspond with 

 the generally used name of our association, we would recommend 

 that Section 1 of our By-Laws be amended by prefixing the fol- 

 lowing sentence to the section, as it now reads, viz. : that "This 

 association shall be known as the Illinois State Dairymen's Asso- 

 ciation ; further 



Resolved, That the Board of Directors elect be empowered 

 to take such legal steps as are necessary to secure the legal change 

 in name. 



Respectfully submitted, 



Walter R. Kimzey. 

 D. C. Haeger. 

 F. G. Austin. 



It is moved and second that this resolution for change in 

 name be adopted. 



Are you ready for the qutstion? It is simply adding the 

 word "State" to our name. 



All in favor say "I." Contrary. It is carried. 



Resolved, That the thanks of this association are especially 

 due the press of Effingham for their successful efforts in arousing 

 the farmers of this section to the importance of this meeting and 

 for their full accounts of the different sessions of the association ; 

 to the farm and dairy journals in general for the publicity they 

 have given this meeting, without which we could not have had 

 so great and successful a gathering. 



Resolved, That we extend a vote of thanks to the citizens 

 of Effingham for their hospitable welcome, and especially to them 

 and the Commercial club for the pleasurable occasion Wednes- 

 day evening — an event standing out as one of the bright spots in 

 the history of the association.
