City on the dairy map as the Dairy
Capital of America" The Internas
tional holds out world of knowl-
edge to the best informed dairymans
and a fund of instruction to these

Milwaukee will therefore be the
mecca Of all progressive cattle breed
ers, dairy farmers, buttermakers,
.cheesemakers, mas ct milk men and
thousands of milk consumers who
will seek the scientific advice that will
be given in abundance by experts

makers in America, the entire out
put of the creamery has been sold in
advance at a premium Of two cents
above the Elgin price on the day it
is made.
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan,
Iowa and Illinois buttermakers are

lions have been provided for at least
1000 men of the creamery trade to
watch the methods and practical
ideas of the United States experts.
There will be SO much in the in
structional line at the international
Dairy Show that agricultural and
dairy school graduates are among it's
most liberal patrons and most en-
thusiastic supporters. There is a
well defined movement on foot
among Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa
and Michigan university graduates to

be worked out at the coming show in
Milwaukee.
