coal tar c0loring matter into the
former. Prof. Ladd also urged the
discrimination of the common prac-
tice of giving tea or coffee to young
children or any highly seasoned arti-
cles of diet: as having tendency to
retard growth and cause disorders of
the stomach. Prof. Kaufman talked
about the COWS that are paying their
board and advised all farmers to use
a Babcock milk tester, to determine
how much butter fat is contained in
milk from each COW and thus deter
mine which are profitable to keep,
as one pound of butter fat makes one
and one-sixth pounds of butter.
These testers come at four and five
dollars set.
Nearly every farmer who has use
for these testers find that some of his
COWS produce mole butter and are
bringing them in handsome profit,
while others that require the same
feed, care and time do not make but
ter enough to pay for the feed they
eat.
Prof. Shepherd took up the general
subject of agriculture and after con-
Quoting short question box Chair
man Worst made a few closing re-
MARKS and a resolution of gratitude
and respect for the action of the N.
P. and Great Northern R.R., in pro-
viding reduced and free fare from the
various points along their respective
lines to the Experimental station
was introduced amidst much enthu~
Siasm.
All expressed themselves as well
pleased and greatly enlightened on
many matters by the exhibits and
lectures of the day.
On several occasions visitors were
heard calculating Had only known
some things which 1 have seen and
learned today I could have been
richer today by many hundreds Of
dollars.''
One Of the Prof's was heard to re-
mark, ''My group was a fine lot Of
intelligent men, who were anxious to
learn new methods and take back all
the suggestions possible. They were
from Stutsman and are good stick
ers.''
The fact that the A. C. was the
poorest Institution in the state
was greatly deplored by the visitors
as well as the faculty and hopes were
expressed that another legislature
would show more liberality towards
'"The Farmers Institution"
The ''be good natu1ed'' injunction
on Chairman Worst's circular was
obeyed to the lettel for every body

drivers Of tho rigs to the college
faculty even the weather was on its
good behavior. as one of the Oliver
county delegates remared.
