Wisconsin Cheesennakers Association
The tenth annual meeting OF the |
Wisconsin Cheese Makers Association |
will be held in the city of Milwaukee, |
airy. 1902 This is to be educa- |
dona1 meeting on the latest improved |
methods of cheese making, both for
eign and domestic, including all al
lied subjects Speakers OF national
reputation of Canada and the States
have been engaged at great expense
to address this meeting. Professors
and authorities who are continually
investigating and experimenting along
dairy lines, have been booked for this
occasion.
We had the largest convention in
the history of the association at Madi-
son last January. and should start this
meeting with a big membership list,
making the tenth annual convention
record-breaker in the history OF the
association. No one interested in dairy
work and cheese-making, or desirous
of learning more in this line, can
afford to miss this convention 1t be
hooves cheese-makers to bring
a sample of our cheese, and have it
tested by cheese experts, who are edu-
| Gated in this line of business: showing
us wherein our cheese is not equal to
| that of our neighbors (if it is mott;
/ and, as we are students, we will go
| home with a determination to profit
/ by our past mistakes and the sug
| gestions received.
Those who contributed to the pro-
| gramme last January were past grand
| masters in the art of practical cheese
| making, the repreSen tativeS of two
| governments, the assistant food COM
| m1ssioners of two great dairy states,
| and world-famed professors, who have
| reduced dairying to a science The
names of r. A. Pearson, assistant chief
OF the dairy division of the United
States Department of Agriculture; ].
A. Ruddick, official referee of the De
| partment of Agriculture of Canada;
j. Fl. Monrad. assistant food commits
! sioner of Illinois, together with Dr.
s. M Babcock and others from the
Wisconsin Experimental Station, gave
a prestige and standing to the con
vention which but few meetings OF
this kind in the United tSates have
| ever had.
To think that our farmers should
| have almost en- bloc remained away
from this convention, and missed ths

well known authorities on the dair.

profit is, to say the least, a blunder

In every community there are farmer
to whom the rest naturally look Ut
