quicker than IN too much new milk.
Would rather mix the milk Of two
days than the curd Of two days make.
Believed in thorough cooking, and
keeping an even heat till the acid was
sufficient. In answer to question said
he determined the amount of acid by
the hot irou test, which he held to be
as reliable for telling the amount de-
veloped, as the thermometer was for
telling the temperature he adj
vised against developing enough to
more than barely stick to the iron be-
fore the whey is run off, and cold wa
ter substituted for warm, to cool the
curd in the Yat-kneW but little about
curd mills or their use, and believed
them unnecessary. Cooled the curd to
500 and put it in hoop when the cool
ed curd would spin half an inch
Would not have it spin more unless it
was for June cheese that was expected
to be kept during the summer. There
was considerable effort made by some
to have old cheese makers tell how to
make good cheese of defective milk,
but it was good deal like getting an
old fox into trap; but finally Mr..
Hazen told what he did sometimes, as
last resort, and that was, draw the
whey early, cook thorough, then grind
the curd. He only claimed that he
could thus make cheese that would
pass in some English markets-not
thatit was gilt-edged.
In the absence of two speakers that
were to precede him, Mr.. Hazen made
the leading speech on "Cows for the
Dairy, and how to breed them" Fa-
vored the Jersey strain if he wanted q
butter cow exclusively, but for gener-
al purposes the thoroughbred, or high
grades, favored the Ayrshire. Was a
breeder Of that kind, but had none for
sale. Raised them for his own use,
because he thought them more suita-
BILE for his purpose. Said he could be
surer Of retaining the good milking
qualities of cow in her progeny, by
using thoroughbred male Of any
breed, than to take mongrel. Held
that like produces like" is an irrepeal-
able law. Couldn't afford to slaughter
the calves Of his best COWS. and op-
posed the policy.
W. G. White, Of Kenosha, the best
feeder in the State, was called up and
said that good results and profits were
closely dependent on high feeding.
Couldn't afford to stint his CATTLE
that he would grow poor on it, while
he knew he could make money by high
feeding.
J. H. Reall, Of New York, spoke
quite earnestly on salt, in opposition
to the Higgins and in favor of the
English "Ashton." Less said the bet
ter on this subject, unless it can be
discussed with more freedom from per-
lsOnalities.

ADDRESS OF F. D. MOULTON.
An immense and expectant crowd
was in attendance to hear f. d. MOul-
ton, of n. Y, widely known as one of
the most enhancing orators, among
business men at least, which is what
he is, and not a professional speaker.
He has commanding presence and al
penetrating, even thrilling voice, that
commands his audience at once. He
put the dairy interests at the front of
agricultural pursuits, and held its
highest attainments had already made
a marked distinction in general intel
ligence among those devoted to it. He
spoke of early struggles with perjury |
and alluded to sainted mother, so
that he drew the tears from every eye.
He complimented the west for her
dairy products, and said they were not
by any at the east. He also
