Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Twelfth Annual Report of the American Dairymen´s Association: With Transactions and Addresses for the Year 1876 Since the publication of the Eleventh Annual Report, two Conventions have been held by the American Dairymen´s Association - one on the Centennial grounds at Philadelphia, the other at Ingersoll, Canada. The Philadelphia Convention was appointed by invitation of the Philadelphia Produce Exchange, to meet in the rooms of the Exchange, but for the greater convenience of persons visiting the International Exhibition, the place was changed to Judge´s Hall, on the Centennial grounds. It opened on the 17th of October, and held one session a day for four days. It was made an international meeting and was open to the people of all countries, who might desire to attend. The addresses which were prepared by citizens of the United States, Canada, and England, will be found able and instructive papers. From not obtaining some of the addresses until after the Report went to press, the proceedings of the Convention, first in order of time, had to be placed in the latter part of the Report. The active part taken in the Association at its formation and during its earlier history, by the Dairymen of Canada, led its founders and early supporters to embrace the Dominion in the field of its labors, and the name given to the organization was made to accord with this fact, though the Conventions continued to be held in the States. In view of these facts and of the efficient aid rendered by Canadian Dairymen in sustaining the late International Dairy Exhibition, through the liberality of funds contributed, their vigorous exertions, and the high character as well as the extent of their exhibits, and in view of the further fact that the Association had already held meetings on four days in the United States, the Executive Board deemed it appropriate to accept the invitation of the Ingersoll Board of Trade to hold the annual meeting of the current year at Ingersoll, the great centre of the cheese producing district of Canada, and it was accordingly so held. This brief Statement of the reasons for holding the late meeting on the north side of the St. Lawrence, is deemed proper by the Secretary, as some people in the States have, not fully appreciating all the circumstances, thought strangely of moving the Annual Convention from the neighborhood of its accustomed location. The meeting proved a large and profitable one. The only unfavorable circumstance connected with it was the occurrence of an unprecedented snow storm along the line of the N. Y. Central Rail Road, which prevented the attendance of some two hundred people from the States, who otherwise would have been present to participate in its proceedings. But notwithstanding the storm the Hall was well filled from the Canadian side, and the papers and discussions sustained the high character of the previous meetings of the Association, as a perusal of them will fully show, and they are accordingly submitted with much satisfaction, to the Dairymen both of Canada and the States.
