the classes each day, in looking after
the heating of the building, holding
the stock, etc.
The chairman of the live stock de-
partment should be on hand the first
day of the short course lat a. m.
sharp to start things going in the
right direction.
Good stock and everyone pushing
straight ahead will make the live
stock part of the short course sue
cess. Do not forget about the i'm
portance of having suitable room
warmth, raised seats, abundance of
light.
Premiums for Glass Wark.
Good premiums should be given for
the best class work. These premiums
should run from LIST place down to
the 9Th or 10th place. All under
certain age can be placed in one list
and all over a certain age in another
if the committee so desire. Premiums
in the mems department should be
for the best all around work in both
the live stock and corn Judging Sec
lions. Premiums given for corn judy
ing work alone, or stock judging work
alone are unsatisfactory and may en-
courage the students to slight half of
the work in order to win premium.
Domestic Science-Advanced Work.
When second or third year course
is offered, an entirely new program
will be given. This program will con-
sist of work along the lines of food,
sanitation, personal hygiene and serv.
ing.
Girls Glass.
A special program will be provided
for the girls class, which will be held
daily from to p. m. This work will
include bread Judging and bread max
ing, cooking of simple foods, personal
hygiene, choice and care of clothing
and house furnishing.
1t is earnestly hoped that a cooking
and sewing contest will be planned for
the girls and that very generous
prizes will be given to the winners.
A good local woman should be en-
gagged for the week, who will wash the
dishes and do the kitchen work. She
should be on hand from s o'clock in
the morning until o'clock at night.
Have the domestic science room put
in readiness for work Saturday be-
fore the short course opens.
Provide a Jewel or Quick Meal gas
oline range with stationary oven, or
a gas range connected ready for use.
Small gasoline stoves are not suitable
for demonstration work.
There should be small room ad-
joining the demonstration room, suit
able for kitchen. In this room ar
rangements should be made for wash
ing dishes, keeping supplies, etc.
For one demonstration the local
butcher will be asked to bring his
block and illustrate the different cuts
of meat and if possible to cut up
side of beef.
General Suggestions.
1. 1t is important that the execu-
tive board see to it that there are no
auctions, closing out sales or large
social parties in town or country dur
ing the week of the short course.
2. Where possible the boys and
girls of the high school should be al
lowed to take the work. In this case
they should take the examination in
corn and stock judging and domestic
science as the case may be.
3. Do not make the mistake of
thinking the short course is intended
for young people only. Urge the
middle aged and older people to take
the course.
4. 1t is customary for some one
from the extension department to go
to the place of the short course a
month before it opens to help in COM
pelting the arrangement of details. A
special effort should be made to have
a large attendance at this meeting.
5. Owing to the large amount of
work outlined for the week it is i'm
perative that classes begin on time.
Encourage everyone to register be-
fore $3.50 Monday morning and to be
on time at all classes. Doors will
