CONTRACTOR TURNS
OVER DAIRY BUILDING
COMING SUMMER WILL SEE THE
DAIRY DEPARTMENT IN THEIR
NEW QUARTERS

A dairy building without an equal
in the West has been completed this
month at the University of Idaho. The
new building is a substantial two
story brick structure 81 by 43 feet
with a full basement. 1t is to be de-
voted entirely to the work along dairy
lines. The main floor and basement
are devoted mainly to the manufact-
ure TO dairy products, while the sec
ond floor contains offices, classrooms
and research laboratories.
The main floor with the exception
of hall and cooler, which occupies a
space 10 by 35 feet, is n large
manufacturing room 40 by SO feet.
The floor is concrete with adequate
drains. A white enamel wainscote
extends four feet above the floor.
The usual factory b~uttermaking
| equipment consisting of a continuous
pasteurizer, vat pasteurizer, churns
and smaller apparatus are grouped
| together on the south side of this
room. On the north are the cheese
watts, press, and farm dairying equip
ment, including a number of the lead
ing makes of s%eparators.
The basement furnishes space for
a mechanical refrigerating and ice
making plant. Cold rooms on the
main floor and in the basement will
be cooled by mechanical refrigeration.
To the south Of the re~frigerating
plant is the ice cream room 20 by 20
feet, equipped with tub and brine
freezers and ice crushed. Ice cream
will be hardened by holding in an adj
joining heavily insulated cold room
at near o. F. On the north side Of
the basement is the milk testing lab
oratory, 26 by 20 feet, equipped with
electric and hand testers. A locker
room, supply storage and cheese cur
ing rooms are also located in the base
ment.
On the upper floor are two offices,
a class room, herd book room, and
research laboratory. The laboratory,
a room 20 by 26 feet, will be used by
advanced students in dairying and in
carrying on certain types of expert
ment station work, It is equipped
for the m~icroscopical and chemical
examination of milk and it's pro-
ducts. The class room on the other
side of the hall is the same size as
the research laboratory. The offices
and herd book room are located in the
front part of the building. The build
ing is planned and built for utility.

WILL NOT INCREASE QUOTA
OF SOLDIERS UNTIL AUGUST

An error was made in reporting
the prospects of increasing the quota
Of soldiers for the University of Ida
no this summer, in that it was stated
there would probably be more than
100 soldiers here this month. DR.. E.
H. Lindley, president of the univer-
sity, says that no effort will be made
to increase the first quota but he
hopes to be prepared to take at least
200 men in August and that the school
will prepare, as quickly as possible,
to take more men and continue the
work throughout the year. Owing TO
the limited equipment President Lind
ley thinks it best to not try to take
more than 100 in June.

JUL|AETTA SCHOOL
HAS CH|LDRENS DAY
SPLENDID PROGRAM AND PIC
MIC MAKE DAY A JOYOUS ONE
INDIAN TAKES PART

Childrens day was observed II
Juliaetta on last Sunday by holding
a Sunday school picnic in the Julia
eta park. Representative schools
from Genesee, American Ridge
Bethel and Fairview, together with
the schools of Juliaetta participated
in the exercises. The exercises con-
sisted of vocal numbers, Rotations.
flag drills and addresses in the fore
noon, while in the afternoon the
leading address of the day was de-
livered by the Rev. S. A. Crown,
pastor of the Federated church at
Genesee, who spoke on the subject Of
the Federated church movement. Rev.
Crown is a forceful speaker, and his
remarks were most favorably re-
ceived.
At noon an old fashioned basket
dinner was spread on impoverished
tables under the shade Of the trees
and there was plenty to eat for all,
and to spare. There were several
hundred in attendance.
A feature of the afternoons pro-
gram was a rendition of Nearer My
God to Thee" in the sign language,
by Harry Wheeler, a full-blood Nez
Perez Indian, who is a graduate of
the Carlisle Indian school in Penn
.sylvania. AS the song was sung by
a select choir, Mr.. Wheeler illustra-
ted the words with signs and motions
whose aptness and gracefulness made
a decided hit with the audience. Later

Every inch Of space is made use Of
for some mi Of the many important
activities of the department and much
work will be undertaken which has
heretofore been impossible, due to
inadequate facilities. Well planned
work rooms and the careful placing
of machinery will make for efficiency
in the work of the department. In the
various laboratories, such machinery
and equipment is provided that dairy
products are manufactured and hand
led as they are in the commercial
plant. Thus, instruction in dairy
manufacturing is given with equip
ment in a manner so that the know
ledge of the processes which the stud
ent obtains can be applied directly to
the creamery business. The various
laboratories also furnish equipment
for experimental work, by students
and instructors, while a commercial
creamery maintained for ms -ructional
and experimental purposes, provides
the raw materials ard dairy products
with which to work.
The department is indeed fortunate
to possess such a splendid building
since it affords the opportunity of
doing more and better work in the
development of dairying in Idaho.

crops on their ranches. The seed
was obtained from the agricultural
department of the United States gov
eminent and was planted May Is,

NENANA|TES ARE
LET IN ON PLAN
TO BID ON WOOL
Wool Clipped From White House
Sheep Will Be Sold to the
Highest Bidder.

/ There have been many novel
methods adopted for the raising OF
Red Cross funds but none of them
has been more unique than the one
by which President Wilson is helping
to boost the big hundred million
dollar drive that is under way this
week throughout the country. Every
one in Nenana has a chance to get
into the game and it is in full swing
from the time of this announcement.
The following telegram, received this
morning by Mrs. Bowen, who is lead
ing the local drive, explains the
plan:

"Yarn made from wool clipped

Wilson on the White House grounds

tributed by the president to be auc-
toned for the benefit of the Red
Cross. Each state and Alaska has
been awarded two pounds, and the
proceeds are to be counted as the
contribution of President Wilson and
Mrs. Wilson to the fund. Governor
Riggs has appointed me chairman
to manage the auction in this divi-
sion and one-half pound has been
assigned as our quota for auction
here. The governor also suggests
that the purchaser might use the
yarn to embroider stars on the honor
flag gained during the Third Liberty
Loan drive. Each bidder should &C
company his bid with ten per cent
of the amount he or she bids, and
no money will be refunded. I sug-
gest that you public the list of bid

CARTER KOON IS
GLAD He JOINED;
CENSORS STRICT
Former Resident of Nenana Writes
That Doings At the Front
Are Army Secret.

Under date of March 10, Carter
koon, former we'll known resident
of Nenana who went Outside to en-
list last year and who is now in
France, attached to Co. B. First
U. S. Engineers, has written to
Arid Slippern in which he describes
the country in which he is stationed
and refers to the fate of a previous
letter, which gives some notion of
the strictness with which the mill
tary authorities are maintaining
their censorship of war news. 81

he writes, land was truly glad to
hear from you, for somehow, Ne
mana seems more like home to me
than any place l know.
Gas l sit here writing this, with
the sun shining nice and warm, and
the birds singing in the trees, you
would not imagine there was any
such thing as war. But as the ger
man (small g trenches are in view
across the way, and as l have been
around her for some time. l don't
have to be told that at any minute
something may start which would
soon convince even the most skepti-
cal person that there is war in this
part of the country.
"Well, old boy, if l were allowed
to do it, l might write a more in
teresting letter, for you know
can hand out a pretty good line
when | want to. But as l had a
letter returned to me last night with
a request, or rather, | should say,
IN the army, a command to rewrite
it, | guess it's taboo with what a
fellow likes most to write about,
and in fact, about all a fellow has
to write about over here, after he
has exhausted his vocabulary in COM
menting on the fine climate in the
winter time, the grand scenery, and
the modern, up-to-date towns (mod-
ern in the days of Joan of Arc)
and last but not least, this lovely
mud they have over here. If Lee
Page had spent the price of ticket
to France, he need never to have
gone to the expense of putting up
a factory to make glue, for this S
surely the clear dope.
"But leaving all jokes aside, l
imagine this to be a beautiful coun-
try in the summer time, and when |
left Nenana with the intention of
trying to join as soon as l got to
the great Outside, / did not expect
any summer picnic excursion, so l
am not discouraged, neither am |
dissatisfied. And if l get through
0. X. l will consider it even as a
personal investment, time well
spent"
In closing, the former contractor
expresses wish to be remembered
to all his friends in Nenana. ...>
