PURDUE DAIRY SCHOOL.
The Purdue University dairy school will
be one of the attractions on the fair
grounds each morning and afternoon. The
school will be conducted i'm the dairy build
ing, on the main drive, a few hundred feet
from the south gate. 1t is thought that the
school will be of value to Indiana men and
women who are interested in butter maxi
ing, both for home use and for sale on city
markets. 1t will be under the direction of
Professor Van Norman. and about twenty
students from the Purdue school of dairy
ing will assist him.
Professor Van Norman Is regarded as an
authority on butter making and all affairs
authority whom he will name, will lecture
at the school each morning at IL o'clock.
The students will conduct a practical dairy
all day. Manufacturers of modern dairy
appliances will provide the students with
separators, churns and the like, and cream
will be separated from milk, ripened and
churned into butter.
The school will not only teach butter
making. but will give city consumers of the
product an insight into the secrets of how
to tell good butter from bad. or imitation,
when they find 1t on sale in market houses
and groceries. The dairy building can &C
commodate several hundred people. and
visitors may attend the school every day
without cost.
This is probably the last year that Sousa's
band will be heard at the Indiana fair, and
1T may not appear in Indiana again. John
Philip Sousa has made it known that he
expects to retire from band tours and rest
and devote his time to other lines of
musical work for some years. This is the
fifth engagement the band has had at the
fair, and Sousa will bring about a dozen So
loists for this week. Chief among the So
loists will be Miss Estelle Liebling, So
prano, and Miss Anna often, voliniste, both
of whom made a recent tour of Europe with
Sousa's band. The programmes at the fair
are to be on Wednesday and Thursday
afternoons, and the night concerts will be
at Tomlinson Hall.
