At the afternoon session .of -(the'
Dairymen's Association -Dr. -jJD.1
tfeia rurncr pxeaiueu ana was in
his usual vein of enthusiasm J for
the cause. He ' " responded brief
ly to the welcome extended and
said that the parties coming from
distant parts did so at; no : little
personal sacrifice but it was done
in the interests of-the dairying
on which agricultural : progress
rests. . . , ii.j , ; '
He said that no , man, should
keep a poor cow now. It is prac
tical for every one to have. a. cow
in good keeping.; . v '
At this stage Dr Curtice treated
the subject, "Dome liecent Leg

and minute. We can not repro
duce it to advantage. X'J VJ

It is a mistake that cows die
from change - of t"climate rom
North to South or from crossing
the Blue Ridge. If the cow comes
in contact with the u ticks-,she X is
