_ L Boies said it was a deplorable face that a large propor¬ 
tion of the butter made was not fit for table use; if made good 
it would always find a market; there was no fear of a good 
market if the product was fit for any market; good goods 
would sell themselves. 
On motion, the matter of this Association making a display 
at the Centennial was now considered. 
G. E. Morrow thought as long as the East was moving in

internal arrangement of Europe; this would be a good school; 
all exhibitions should be strictly American, absorbing states, 
counties, and districts. 
G. P. Lord thought it well to make a display of our dairy 
products; whoever else was there, a hungry world would be
