BREEDERS' CONGRESS TO BE HELD AT MILWAUKEE IN FALL Plans are under way by A. D. Lyuch and M. H. Petersen, dairy experts of the Illinois Agricultural Association, whereby a "Breeders' Congress" can be held in conjunction with the Na-- tional Dairy Show at Milwaukee this fall; according to information received by Farm Adviger Doergchuk, of the Lake County Farm Bureau. The pur-- pose of the congress would be to,ep-- able dairy cattle buyers of states that are buying train loads of dairy cattle monthly to meet the sellers in Wis-- consin, where most of the dairy cattle replacement supply comes from. Fifty eight cows on the average are meeting théir '"Waterloo" every day in lHlinois as a result of the tuberculo sis testing. Over 1,000 are being test-- ed daily. With 58 cows being killed each day in Illinois, practically 1,500 ers of Wisconsin gre just as honest as those of Illinois. 'What we need is gloser contact between the sellers: of Wisconsin and the buyers of Illinois. When a farmer buys his own cattle gress" meets with the approval of W. E.
