STATE FAIR LESSONS

One of the most practical lessons OF
our state fair this fall was that taught
by the state agricultural college which
had set up in an amphitheater holding
about LOCO persons, a complete modern
dairy. In this dairy all the operations Of
separating milk. testing it with the Bah
cock tester and making butter were per-
formed daily and the amphitheater was
never large enough to hold the interested
crowds.
The care taken by the operator to
prevent contamination Of milk and butter
was evidently revelation to many of
the farmers and their wives, as excla-
nations of surprise were frequently heard
when the utensils were washed and scrub
bed again and again, plunged into hot
water and the whole process of butter
making gone through without once hav-
ing been touched by a human hand.
The spectators were for the most part
composed of practical dairy workers
more or less versed in their business
They asked innumerable questions upon
every phase of dairying, often showing
almost perfect knowledge of the bust
ness; but the operator in charge a re-
markably well informed and alert young
man, never failed to give instant and
satisfactory reply.
Two demonstrations daily were made
in this dairy and during the FIVE days
of the fair it is safe to say that 10000 per
sons received valuable instruction in the
way of object lessons in good dairying.
