The DAIRYMEN's MEETING.-The
annual meeting of the Wisconsin Dairy
mems Association was held at the City
Council rooms, in this city, Tuesday and
Wednesday of last week, Feb. 18th and
18th. The meeting was highly successful,
and there were present representative men
the state. Many interesting discussions
took place, and several essays contain ing
valuable hints and suggestions to dairymen
were read before the Association. Tues
day evening Prof. Daniels, of Madison, de-
livered an entertaining and instruct We
lecture, which was well received. The
question as to the best manner of market
ing dairy products occupied the atten ton
of the meeting, and an interesting and pro-
ftable discussion was had on the best mar
kets for butter and cheese
1t was the unanimous opinion that Wis
ccnsin Cheese would soon acquire reputa-
ton second to none, and that this was a.
AV@uy an auuitteu ldCI ny INC Amci lCau
and Foreign markets. The question of COM
para:ige profits of dairying with other
branches of farming was discussed with
much interest Its advalta ges over exclu-
slve grain farming were strongly presented,
but the extent of which grain and stock
raising might be united with dairying was
q question on which there was some diffeI-
ence of opinion, but with strong prepou-
derance in favor of some mixing. State
ments were made by several of the dairies
last year having yielded $50 per COW IN
cheese, and calf, not counting anything for
manure. This gives a fair profit.
The offer of Cornish Il Curtis, of Fort At
kinson, of one of Whipple's Rectangular
Churns, to which was added by W. D..
Hoard, years subscription to the Jefferson
County Union, for the best 20 pound sam
ple of butter, was awarded to Mr. Q G. DIN
of Oak land, who exhibited splendid "gilt
edge" specimen.
Mr.. d. H. Burrell of Little Falls, Ny.
WAS press Mt, and gave some valuable
suggestions to those intending to ship cheese
to the English markets. The meeting adj
journed Wednesday afternoon, and we but
express the opinion of all present when we
say that a pleasanter or more profitable
gathering WAS never held by the Dairymen
of the State,
