X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>Dairies to Prairies tells the story of Elg
 in&rsquo\;s dairy heritage. With its own Butter Board of Trade\, Elgin onc
 e set the price for butter nationally! Elgin's first wealth was the dairy 
 industry with the Borden Condensing plant and easy rail access to the City
  of Chicago market. The project also explores how these former dairy farms
  have come under pressure from suburban development\, modern day agricultu
 re and efforts to restore natural prairies. Now the Gail Borden Public Lib
 rary is working to digitize the Elgin Dairy Report publication for better 
 understanding of Elgin's butter and dairy industry.</p>\n<p>We will highli
 ght the newly-digitized Elgin Dairy Report volumes thanks to the grant we 
 received from the Illinois State Historical Records Advisory Board.</p>\n<
 p>Presented by Historian Jerry Turnquist and Genealogy &amp\; Local Histor
 y Librarian James McAdams.</p>\n<p>This program is in partnership with the
  Elgin History Museum.</p>\n<p>Please Register</p>\n<p>This program is hel
 d in conjunction with The Elgin Dairy Report 1892-1894 and 1900-1903 digit
 ization project thanks to 2025 funding from the</p>\n<p>OFFICE OF THE SECR
 ETARY OF STATE\, ILLINOIS STATE ARCHIVES AND ILLINOIS STATE HISTORICAL REC
 ORDS ADVISORY BOARD.</p>\nhttps://gailborden.libnet.info/event/15853381
