FIFTY LEADING
BADGER FARMERS
John Quincy Emery, Dairy
Farmer and Farm
Legislator.

The Badger state took a long step
forward when it began to give instruc-
ton in dairy husbandry and in other
lines of farming All of our grand old
men of agriculture have been boost
ers for more knowledge in da1rylng
and in farming in general. John
Quincy Emery was no exception, but
he devoted much of his life to supple
menting education in better farming.
mot all people act sin accordance
with their best knowledge and many
people are as lazy and Indifferent as
the circumstances will permit" he
once told the buttermakers Of the
state. In the interests of our dairy
industry, Mr. Emery became a most
ardent advocate of legislation to reg
ulate the course Of action in dairy
ing. He saw he need of legislation
to define and guard against insanitary
and adulterated milk, to prevent adul-
teratiOn of cheese and unfair imlta-
ton of butter, in short such laws as
are necessary to safeguard and de-
fend the dairy industry and the con-
Stunning public.
He was one of the men whose eff
forts and influence resulted in the
formation of the state dairy and food
department He saw it start with
three members in 1889, saw it grow
to eight in 1903, to % in 1909, and
to 80 in 1915 at the end of his twelve
yearS~administration as dairy and food
commissioner.
Mr. Emery was born in Ohio Of Old
New England stock He came as
child to Dane county, and spent his
boyhood working on the farm, attend
ing public and private schools, and
in teaching during his young man
hood. His work as an educator led
him to various counties and to various
official positions. He taught at AL
bion academy. served as high school

There are few streets in Ypres to-

of refugee families guide the way OF
the visitor through the ruins of the
city. This was once one Of the prin-
cipal side streets of the town; today
it is only a path through the wilder
ness. The path leads from the old
cathedral, seen in the. background, to
the American Red Cross colony erect
ed to care for the hundreds of refu-
gees returning to the city without
homes or shelter. These barrack
buildings furnished the only shelter
obtainable for hundreds Of people
