WINTER COURSE IN FARMING
Special Dairy and short Courses at
Corvallis College.

The Oregon Agricultural College
at Corvallis will offer this winter. as
usual, two special courses along agri-
cultural lines, which will be desig-
mated "the short course in agricul-
ture," and "the special dairy
course"
The short course in agriculture
will open on Tuesday, January s.
1907, at 600 a. m, and continue
two weeks, closing on Friday, Janu-
airy is. The course consists of a
series OF popular lectures along lines
suited to aid horticulturists, dairy
men, and others engaged in agrlcul.
tural pursuits in developing the
great natural resources OF our state.
The lectures are supplemented by
laboratory work under the auspices
OF experts, who strive to make the
course thoroughly practical by
adapting the work as far as possible
to the needs of each individual.
The special course will also open
on January S.1907. and will continue
six weeks, closing on February 15,
1907. The purpose of this course Is
to familiarize students with the mod
ern forms of dairy apparatus and
teach the underlying principles of
the production. care, and manufac-
ture of milk into butter and cheese.
Students will meet for work six
days per week. The forenoon of each
day will be devoted to practical
work in the dairy rooms. In the
afternoon of each day. except those
devoted to cheese making. lectures
and recltatlons will occupy the time
during two or three hours.
In addition to the regular teaching
force. the services OF an expert
cheese maker, Mr.. l.. d. Ziemer, have
been secured. Mr.. Zlemer Is a grad
uate OF the Wisconsin dairy school,
and for a time was travelling dairy
instructor In that state. For the
past four years he has been actively
engaged In the manufacture OF
cheese in Tillamook county, Oregon.
There will be no charge for tut
tion and no educational entrance re-
quirements. for either OF these
courses. Board and room can be
had in Corvallis at SO to 81 per
week.
A cordial invitation Is extended to
all persons interested to enroll in
one OF these courses. An outline OF
the course can be had for the ask
ing. For further information ad-
