>at Iowa STATE College. with w. B.
Barney, state dairy and food COM
| missioner, we have urged head but
| termakers and checsen,akers to se-
cure deferred classification because It
will mean Il Very serious loss to the
| food admins tration to close down
creameries and cheese factories and
also to agriculture. Nevertheless, many
of the younger men have gone to war
AID more are going. II their places
are not filled by women and men be-
ycnd the draft age, many plants viii
have to close"
Special effort is being made to in
tcrest women and men beyond military
age who are now in less essential en-
ployment in the butter and cheese in
dustries. In connection with that ef-
! fort all of the dairy courses at Iowa
State College viii be opened to women,
either in one year courses or in the
full four year collegiate courses.
Already We are training a class OF
young women who will be able to take
up some lines of dairy manufacturing
work, such as testing, milk inspection
and the like. They promise to adapt
themselves satisfactorily to this work.
The demand upon us for specially
trained men and women Is larger than
we can supply now. In the past few
months we have placed fifteen men in
field inspection positions with the
United States department Of agricul-
ture; they are now inspecting the
butter that Is being manufactured for
the navy in Iowa and other western
plans"

B|TUM|NOUS COAL Il
SHORTAGE IMPENDS
Administrator Weaver and
Consumers Apprehensive. !,
Supply Is Due Monday.

Now that the supply OF hard coal in
Washington is sufficient to meet press
ing demands. a threatened shortage
Administrator Weaver and the users Of
soft coal. The shortage is not yet
acute. but unless there is q speedy in
crease in receipts 1t soon will be-
come so.
Reports were received today that
enough bituminous Is on its way and
should be here by Monday morn
ing to avert the necessity OF banking
any soft coal fires, but IL anything
arises to delay its arrival many apart
ment houses, hotels. office buildings and
other large users of soft coal will be In
sore straits.
By direction of DR.. Garfield, the ma
tional fuel administration today ordered
that the daily shipments OF anthracite
to Washington shall be increased from
an average of 2.400 tons to 3,40o TONS
for period of seven days. Edward F.
Colladay, while acting as fuel adminis-
traitor during the absence of Mr..
Weaver, began efforts to obtain this in
crease in shipments. and he continued
them. upon Mr.. Weaver's request, after

Use of 1t several days ago. but the for.
NAL order was issued only this morn
ing.
If railroad conditions are such that
this additional coal can be gotten
through without delay, Administrator
Weaver believes there ought not to be
any further serious shortage of anthra-
cite this winter. Receipts for the TWEEN
ty-four hours ended this morning
dropped to about half those Of recent
days. but they are expected to increase
over Sunday, and there is enough on
hand to meet absolute requirements,
