'Service Department
For Farmers and
Breeders of Cattle

The educational department of Iowa
State Dairy Association which has
offices at Waterloo, will inaugurate
new service department for farmers
and breeders Of dairy cattle in the
state.
There have been a great many re-
quests from not only Iowa farmers, but
from many of the other states, 5or
cattle. These requests have been for
all of the leading breeds of pure bred
special dairy cattle as we'll as the
grades There-are many communities
, in which dairying is Just getting a
start. BY means Of cooperative test
associations and the individual test
ing on the farm, large number OF
cows have been found to be. unprofit-
able. BY selling the Improbable
cows, the herds have been reduced
thus creating demand for grade cows
Of all of the leading breeds. In most
of these communities there is also a
demand for pure bred bulls for the
purpose of improving the future herds.
In other locations where dairying has
developed more rapidly, tho breeders
often have a few animals for sale.
Some instances these breeders are not
well enough known to find ready buy
ers for their surplus stock. 1t is for
the purpose Of bringing the purchaser
!, and the seller in closer touch that the
dairy association has inaugurated this
plan.
Lists will be kept on file in the office
and breeders who have dairy cattle
for sale, regardless of the breed, are
invited to send in description of the
animals which they have for sale CIV
ing the essential information that buy
ers require before making their pur-
chase.
Those who wish to buy either grade
COWS or pure breds are also invited to
write the department for information.
The dairy association is always ready
to answer in practical way any ques-
lions which farmers wish to ask. 1t
is only necessary for those interested
to state their problems by writing the
department. Prompt attention is
given to all correspondence and those
receiving assistance are not obliged In
any way. 1t is for the purpose of
serving the dairy interests and the
general public to greater degree that
the dairy association has adopted the
service department

Food Value of MIX
Not Appreciated by
General Public

The value OF milk as food is not
appreciated as It should be. Many
adults consider it a beverage rather
than an easily digestible and highly
nutritious article of food. They do not
realize that glass OF milk contains
approximately the same amount OF
nutritive material as a good slice OF
beef, quarter Of loaf of bread, or
two large eggs.
It has been truthfully stated that
we live NOT npon what we eat. but
upon what we digest. Milk is more
completely digested and utilized than
any other article Of food. Far more
easily digested than such animal foods
as meat, fish, etc.. in place of which
milk and milk products find their logi-
cal place In the diet.
Not only is milk more readily and
completely digested, but the same
amount Of nutritive material can be
obtained for less money in milk than In
other animal fods, according to Dairy
and Food Commissioner w. b. Barney.
The cereal products are, in the raw
state, the cheapest food stuffs we can
buy, but many Of the products manu-
featured from these cereals would not
be so generally used were their cost
compared with milk. Consider, for ex-
ample, the widely advertised prepared
breakfast foods. It takes from six to
nine large helpings approximately one
package) of many of these prepared
foods to contain as much nourishment
as one quart Of milk or three quarters
of pint of cream with which they are
served at the breakfast table. The
quart Of milk costs the housewife
about cents, whereas the breakfast
food requires the expenditure OF from
10 to 20 cents for a package. While
the raw cereal products such as corn
meal. flour, etc, are indeed cheap foods
for furnishing energy. they do not con-
tain appreciable amounts of protein.
On the other hand. more than % per
cent Of the food constituents Of whole
milk consists of this necessary mater
ial in its most useful form-casein.
Protein, the most costly Of food mater
ials and the one generally lacking in
inexpensive foods. is required to build
up our body structure.
