reputation for himself; lie is swallowed up in the whole. It 
takes time to earn a reputation; once earned it is as good as 
capital invested; it is a “trade mark,”and has its real value. 
Some milk could at all times be fed to calves and hogs with 
protit. 
B. Cox asked Dr. W. what he received by his plan for his 
milk, per gallon. 
Dr. Wooward could not at this time give the exact net pi ice 
he had received; it was evident he had done better than those 
who took their milk to a common cheese factory. A dairy¬ 
man with boys to bring up should by all means work up Ins 
milk. 
S. W. Kingsley inquired as to how many cows one man 
could care for by his plan. 
Dr. Woodward thought the labor was reduced at least one 
fourth. 
Prof. Hall— How do you care for your milk in cold weather '■ 
Dr. Woodward— Set my milk in pans two feet deep; hang 
them up in winter, and regulate the temperature m the usua 
way by artificial heat. 
Dr. Tefet— Why not let them remain same as in summer ( 
Dr. Woodward— Could not regulate the temperature as well. 
R. R. Stone said Dr. Woodward’s was very similar to the 
factory plan. He regulated his temperature by steam; could 
not heat as evenly by stoves. Ice houses were now used >y 
all factories. Last year in hot weather the dividends weie 
small, but only for two months. 
A vote of thanks was here tendered Mr. M. H. Thompson, 
secretary of the Association, for his labors and services in 
building up and maintaining the Association. 
On motion of R. P. McGlincy the executive committee 
were instructed to pay the secretary such compensation for 
his services as in their judgment would be just and adequate 
for the labor performed.
