THIRTY-SIXTH ANNUAL CONVENTION. 43 



milk unless he thinks it is free from disease. We in the city 

 cannot help ourselves. For twenty years no milk has been put 

 on my table that has not been boiled. People say that by pasteur- 

 izing milk it will free it from disease. I do not beHeve that.

 not to put anything on that farm that I have not tested, I will 

 give you a certificate of health and you can sell all of your milk 

 for 15 cents." The time is ripe now in Chicago for some one 

 to make a fortune out of that. I know that to be true. Any 

 further questions?

 you again. 



Chairman: Before there are any other questions, Mr. 

 Cummings would like to speak to you just a moment. 



Mr. Cummings: The Association wishes me to announce, 

 gentlemen, that tomorrow night will be the banquet given by
