ell of wheat for two pounds of chee1e, he
will purchase very s3ariagiy. We
should increase the manufacture until the
demand can be supplied at fair prices,
when all parties will be permanently
benefited But think we will never
see the time but what truly fine butter or
cheese will bring fair prices and meet a
ready sale, while poor butter and cheese
will always be dull, and will meet 6 very
dull sale, yet always sells for more than
it is worth. It ia great loss of both
capital and labor to make poor cheese,
and the time is fast approaching when
such goods will scarcely sell ct oil. while
the truly prime goods will be eagerly
sought for at full prices, and the objects
of these associations are for the express
purpose of insugurating proper reforms
An this especial branch of agriculture. i
hope and trust the time is not far distant
when the discredit which Western butter
and cheese has received will give place
to the enviable reputation OF our sister
and neighboring State of New York, and
we are confident the present factory sys-
tenn, properly conducted, with the assls-
lance and cooperation of the Northwest
ern Dairymen's Association, we shall soon
ba able to accomplish.
At the conclusion of the paper it was
10 O'Clock, and the convention adjourned
until 1:30 p. m.

INVITATIONS.
An invitation was read from the Hen
Gideon Truesdell, asking the convention
as body to visit his farm, tomorrow.
A special train is to be ready at noon to
convey the visitors to the farm, which IS
about seven miles from this city.
The invitation was accepted.
The convention was also invited to at
tend festival of the Methodist church
in the evening, where they would have
an opportunity to eat oysters, ice cream
&C. An additional inducement was held
out in the shape of Chinsmsn imported
fiom Chicago for the occasion. The ORR
entail attended the CONVEX ton during the
afternoon, and was viewed with no slight
curiosity.
The debate on the nutritive qualities of
cheese was in order, but no one respond
ed. and the matter dropped.
The next question was "ls it practic-
able to discontinue the manufacture of
cheese on Sunday by the factories ?"
Mr. l. H Wanzer, of Elgin, opened the
debate. He dwelt upon the sin commit
ted by those who violated the command
of the Bible and of God in breaking the
Sabbath. The evil results Of Sabbath
breaking were dwelt upon. The cheese
factory laid under contribution all the
surrounding country, and compelled every
one to violate the Sabbath, if work was
done on that day. He would rather rent
part of his land for Dutch beer garden
than for cheese factory to be run on
Sunday. It would keep every one from
going to church, and rapidly demoralize
the community. Men congreated In the
factories and talked over worldly mat
ters particularly the future of the cheese
market, when they ought to be worship
inc God in church. In the older dairy
districts the Immortality and degradation
of the community was due to the factories
being run on sunday, and he found that
the most prosperous factory was in the
worst places. The way he managed was
to receive milk but once on every day of
the week, except Saturday, when milk
was received twice The Sunday milk
was kept over Sunday, the cans being
placed in cold water. No work was done
in his establishment on Sunday, and he
had worked it for four years with salts
faction to his patrons, and never worked
on the day which they were directed to
keep holy. He warned them against sett-
ing an example that would be bad in the
future, and would result in evil not only

Applause.
Mr.. E. G. Scofeld testified to thetruth-
fulness of Mr. Wanzer's statements re-
gardipg the satisfactory manner in which
his ia Glory was conducted, and hoped the
example set by him would be followed
by every cheese-maker in the land.
MI. E. H. Seward, of Marengo, stated
that his father kept dairy when he was
boy, and on Sunday they MIXED the
COWS and settled the milk for the cheese.
The Saviour pulled ears of corn on the
Sabbath, and if God gave cows to be
MIXED they should be MIXED on Sunday
as we'll as every other day. 1t looked to
him as if they were trying to be better
than their Master, who told them to pull
the ass out of the ditch on Sunday.
Laughter. Those dairymen who did
not work on Sunday took care of their
milk up to daylight on Sunday morning
and then "blew out the candle in the
Lords face" Laughter There was
more work done, and more sin committed
in the aggregate by the persons who put
the milk in cooling, than if it were taken
to the factory and cared for. He thought
it was nobody's business, and not the
business of that convention what dairy
men did with their milk on Sunday TAp-
plause. The idea that the East was de-
