4 The closing of the Nineteenth centu-
~ has witnessed marvellous strides in
the improvements of methods in the dali
L ry world. Formerly the whole business
was conducted largely by rule of
4 thumb" Instead of vocation requir-
ing certain apprenticeship it is fast
becoming an exact science, in which
chemistry and bacteriology play no in
significant part The increasing inter-
est and attendance at the various dairy
schools throughout the United States
and Canada, the existence of great CO.
operative and commercial organiza-
tions for the manufacture and sale OF
dairy products is an undisputable tes-
timony to the achievements of modern
science. In this great Industry the
Il government has appropriated vast
sums of money to help the dairyman in
his work, and this is indicative of its
Importance as factor of the great
food problem of the world.
The territorial lines of the dairy belt
have long since been annihilated. A
few states and provinces in the east no
longer enjoy the exclusive distinction
of being in the dairy sections. In the
! Dairy building at the Exposition space.
has already been asked for by Maine
and California, Manitoba and Texas.
The supposed disadvantage of soil. wa
! ter climate and food in portions Of
t North America have largely been elm
inn.ed by the skillful dairyman. and to-
day splendid representatives of dairy
animals are found wherever the whole
!, sonepcss and nutritiye value OF milk
!, products are known.
Few people have any adequate con-
ception of the present magnitude Of the
t dairy industry. In the United States
: and Canada there is one dairy COW to
{ every four persons. or 10000 600 cows.
t TIE annual milk production is esti-
5 mated at $3.50 100000. Add to this the
value of dairy cows. SG5O.OO00Oo. and
we have $1,000, 0DD,0o0. Tc this add
the investments in dairy appliances.
and we reach n grand total of 50 O0O,-
100000 invested in this great industry
in the United States and Canada. The
great countries to the south of us. Cen
/ trail and South America, are eager for
American dairy products, and with
a more people from these countries visit
X ing the Exposition in 1901 than have
visited the United States and Canada
!, in the past half century the great COM
mercial opportunity to exhibitors of
Dairy Products and Supplies needs no
further comment.
Il A large, beautiful building located
near the Agricultural building will be
! devoted exclusively to Dairy Products
and Dairy Apparatus.
i All the milk products will be exhibit
ed in glass cases properly refrigerated

MS possible the texture and quality of
: the products on exhibition. Exhibitors

chimes for the benefit of the visitors
