]. A. Cozine read an interesting
paper teeming with practical expert
ence upon the subject, Which is the
most profitable for the dairy, the sum-
mer or the winter cow For all pur-
poses, he showed conclusively that the
winter COW is by far the most profit
able Neils p. Hoegh followed Mr..
CoZine with a short talk, emphasizing
the superior value of the winter cow
for the dairy.
John A. Nash responded to the sub
ject, Education" and made some
valuable suggestions and clear state
ments that met with hearty response
from the large audience. Mr. Nash is
one of the most ardent supporters of
higher education that can be found.
His address marked the difference be-
tween u man that is educated so he
may clearly express himself and one
that is not educated.
Byron P. Norton, State Dairy Com
missioner, addressed the meeting and
portrayed the advantages to be achiev-
ee by the people of Iowa and lauded
the greatness of our state and portray
ed her valuable resources. During the
entire day he gave those present much
valuable information that he has prac-
ticed for years and by so doing has
prospered. The session closed for the
afternoon at $3.50 until this evening
when they will meet and give an in
teresting program. The program for
tomorrow is exceptionally good and
will doubtless prove very interesting.
The interest manifested to-day far
exceeds all previous years and had the
weather not have interfered this years
Institute would have been equal to
any held in the state.
In addition to the program by local
talent, Gov. Leslie NJ. Shaw is to be
present to address the Institute.
We are pleased to note that the In
stitute is growing in favor each year
and will soon be up to the high stand
ard and fill the mission for which it
was founded.
