, From the address Of Mr.. J. Real, d
New York, before the annual convention
Of the American Dairymen's Association,
we present this extract: Mr.. Reall con-
trasted the prosperity Of the dairy in
dusiry with other branches Of farming,
business and manufacturing which had
outrivalei all Cheese and butter were
now bringing relatively higher prices
than ever before. The export last year
to Great Britain, our chief customer. had
amounted 10 ll0, 900, 900 pounds worth
over Sl3, ,O00, 900, y large increase over
the past, and suscaptable of still greater
enlargement, Butter had also been ex-
ported. 30 the amount of 1900, 600
pounds. IL Was n known fact that the
home consumption Is not commensurate
with the foreign demand for cheese, but
II In because the best grades were sent
abroad and the poorest quality forced
upon OuI own people. II the American
consumer were given q fine full cream
cheese instead az an article SKINNED 30
death, il would become popular as a
wholesome and nutritious food. IL was
the skinned cheese which naturally lies
like a grindst0ne on the stomach, and

was indigestible A mild rich kind
was demanded by the home trade and
wo ID be appreciated rs highly here as
in England. In reference 70 butter 4
stala article, however fine, was DO longer
wanted. The public taste had become
so well cultivated that fresh favored
butter was demanded At all seasons Of
the wear. To meet this demand the sys-
tenn OF winter dAirying, so successfully
practiced in Illinois where the finest
stock il made at all seasons Of the year,
must be extended. Creameries or the
associated EARn Of butter making must
take the place Of private dairies, because
"A mnch higher price is realized for the
4 product and much waste and labor is
saved the dairymAn. Besides, ali classes
should have the opportunity 10 enjoy
7 fine butter, at reasonable prices, As well
ar all other articles Of food.
Dairying gives its followers both
physical ard intellectual food. No class
think more or discuss more. This was
sttested by their conventions which
should continue 90 be encouraged. They
had been OF vast benefit not only 30 their
members but TO the entire dairy com
munity.
An important feature OF the dairy in
dnstry has been the successful estab-
lishment OF two distinct dairy fairs the
past year. One at Meadvile, Pa, and
the other at Chicago, the results Of which
would be Of lasting benefit. Dairy fairs
were of long establishment in England,
where two had.also been held within the
year. In that country the leading men
of the nation took pride in participa-
tion in meetings Of dairymen. At the
fairs. dukes and lords aud members Of
Parliament ofieiated. The Prince OF
Wales prides himself on having the
finest dairy in England.
