AS shows and expositions are sup
posed to emphasize progress, to bring
out by comparison new and better
methods of operation, and as this is
an era of close margin in business, the
best minds of the country are con-
stantly engaged IN evolving low cost OF
production, and marketing methods. 1t
is reasonable to expect that an indus
try involving billion of dollars an
nually, as does the dairy industry In
America, must have the best brains OF
the day working out improvement In
the vast problems that are attached to
its many branches. That this stu
pendous industry might receive Its
proper recognition among the worlds
activities, few patriotic men organ
lied this association for the purpose
of holding an annual dairy show that
would be short course in dairy hus-
bandry unequaled anywhere else. map
ping out a line of work to produce an
educational event that would supple
ment the work of our agricultural col
leges, which was much to be desired
in the dairy world, and each recurring
show taking advantage of experience
gained in the previous shows has i'm
| proved until 1t is today somewhere
| near what it's founders intend it shall
| be.
Twelve hundred to fourteen hundred
head of the best breeds of dairy cat
tie are promised for exhibition this
year, being judged by competent
! trained experts on type and perfor-
nance, with all records Of perfor-
nance and cost of production avail
able, with what is best in the arts OF
breeding and feeding developed by
masters in the industry placed at the
/ disposal of the visitor, and with the
highest achievement of the genius OF
/ man on lines of caring for and mar
keting dairy products before you, the
1912 show promises to surpass all it's
| predecessors, and it would indeed be
a. laggard who would not justify time
and expense Of attendance upon this
| great show. Within it's portals the
old-timer can gain most useful knowl-
|
beginner can equip himself with the
groundwork for embarking upon sue
cessful dairy enterprise. The hand
full of men who commenced this show
have been supplemented by several
hundred others from all over the
country who from contact were con-
vinced of the integrity Of purpose of

identified with the work undertaken.
AS success each year crowns the eff
forts of the management, the feeling
takes root with the dairy people that
this show should be the mecca to
which all men interested in dairy
progress should make an annual pill
grimage and bring their fellows with
them in goodly numbers.
This show is the mart for exchange
of experiences and ideas that have
made or broke those following the
lines disclosed. 1t Is the mart where
all that is best in dairying, be it
breeding, feeding, fitting for show
yard, or developing to the highest
| standard of production for market pur-
poses Is discussed; where all that is
modern in farm and dairy machinery
is displayed in practical manner. Here
! the east meets the west; the young
ster rubs elbows with the veteran.
In fact, no fair or exposition can hope
to attain the value and Importance
that this exposition has attained. 1t
stands today honestly administered
for the dairy industry as whole; 1t
knows no breed or interest above an
other and is the highest exponent OF
all that is best in dairying. The
seventh annual show, better equipped,
with all features of merit amplified,
new and instructive features added in
the government educational exhibit,
no matter what character Of stock rails
ing he is engaged in day or two
spent at the show must be helpful to
the man who wants to advance in his
methods and make more money from
his farm. 1t is a farmers show, the
less pretentious scale you farm on the
more need you have of its teachings.
The railroads are doing great work
along their respective lines and they,
together with the agricultural and
dairy press, are rendering valuable
support to this show. This show is
held in Chicago every year. This year
