successful 10 that degree that the results
attained by the exhibition can be pointed
to with pleasure and pride by every dairy
man in the state. The dairy-men of this
state have very justly acquired reputa-
ton for Intelligence and enterprise. By
the proper effort they can make display
of their products at once creditable to
themselves and the state and their efforts
should be henceforth directed to this end.
Through her dairymen Wisconsin can at
tain to the proud position of being the best
dairy state Of the Northwest. We hope the
dairymen of Jefferson County will do what
ever lies in their power to promate the
interests of the Wisconsin Dairy Fair.
