Upon several different occasions there were between 600 and 700 peo ple in attendance upon the Dairy Convention and exhibit at one time, and from the moment that President Judd called the meeting to order at 10 o'clock Thursday morning until it closed at 5 o'clock Friday afternoon, the interest never flagged. Hon. B. D. White, the dairy expert with the Department of Agriculture at Wash ington, D. C, who has participated in dairy conventions in all of the older states, said that he had never attend ed a better convention. The program was full of interest It was a school of information and Instruction, and facts were presented and views ex changed and actual results shown, which will be of tremendous value to all those engaged in the Industry or contemplates a participation in it. The substantial character of the gath ering was shown when the Chair re quested those actually milking cows commercially to stand 75 per cent of the audience arose, and when a vote was asked to Bhow what pro portion of these were testing milk with the idea of keeping their herds up to the highest standard, at least three-fourths of the milkers rose a second time, a striking evidence of modern dairy methods.

Editor of the Courier: Your arti cle on the Goldfield trouble, I think, to iDthAK harsh nn the miners. A a n reader of both sides of the controver sy I think that tne miners are justi fied. First, the miners dig out of Mnthor TTnrth the gold and silver which being in close proximity with the San Francisco mine, coum be con verted into American dollars in 30 days. Then, sir, why should a corpo ration ask Its employes to take scrip ttiot ia nni o tender In anv nenap and their hard earnings taken and de posited in defunct banks and trust companies to Doister up a wnu cat speculation? Yes, it is all well enough t talk nhnnt hfilne natriotic lust, at this time when the speculator's ox has been gored, but now was it wnen the banks and the trusts had their tha necks of nroduce: when they were demanding the government Issue of currency Dasea ou oue-imru the value of non-perishable products of n .oiu r.r 3 npr cent ner annum, to be the first lien on the product? What did the same people say tnen about patriotism? They charge us with being lunatics and all other kinds of "ticks." If the producers had treated them with the noma rfnoe thpv pave, thev would have refused to take their wild cat curren cy and what would have happened? It is not hard to guess, bo mucn ior patriotism, if tha nreRs nf the country would give the people the facts instead of holding back facts I think the results would be better in tne ena. This matter puts me in the mind of the old story told on the Irishman that held the limb back until his friend got in reach then let go, mak ing tha ramark "Beeory. if I had not held It, it would have knocked you down." Moral. Those who have told the t-v. win ha raanected: those who have not will be nit. The truth will come some day. The consequences we know not we guess. Yours for the facts, W. W. MYERS.
