WANT COLLEGE MEN

College men of South Dakota are
urged if possible, to spend their sum-
mer vacations helping on the farms.
An appeal issued by f. T. Meredith,
secretary of agriculture, says that this
year there is special need for such
help on the farms because of the i'm
portance of maintaining a normal pro.
duction of food.
Il hope" says Secretary Meredith.
that not only students. but business
men generally, will lend aid as SO
many Of them did patriotically and
effectively in the summer of 1918"
Reports received by the department,
he points out, show that the present
supply of hired farm labor is 10 per
cent less than last year and approxi.
mately 72 per cent of the normal sup
ply, which was almost exactly the stu,
alton in 1918. The farmers and the r
families are doing their utmost 70
keep up production, but they cannot
secure the hired help that they for
merly have had, he says.

WEATHER AFFECTS MARKETS
somtimes DemoraIizes Conditions BY
Interfering With Delivery
Prices May Vary.

Weather conditions affect the con-
suming markets in the large cities
somewhat differently from the mar
kets in producing sections. and the
two sets of markets do not always
move In agreement. The weather
sometimes stimulates the demand for
certain products and sometimes de-
morallzes conditions by interfering
with delivery or by injuring the quail
ity of much of the stock. say market
experts, United States department of
agriculture.
In the producing sections rainy or
cold weather or extreme heat may in
terfere with gathering the crop or
may threaten its destruction, thus
causing a temporary advance in price {;
or 1t may hasten the maturity unex-
pectedly and thus cause sudden in
crease in supplies at the shipping sta
tions Under such conditions prices
may vary at shipping points independ-
entity of the consuming markets. An
advance or decline in price may be
carried further in shipping section
than in the consuming market.

average bacterial count of 8OO,O26.
while 1865 samples of milk which had
an average content of 2,4O6,357 bac-

II rapid bacterial growth Is to be pre-

Is to use a surface cooler with the

Cleanliness Counts In Stable.
A factor having en- Indirect but i'm
portant bearing upon the production of
milk is the character of the stable.
Whenever possible it should be on high
ground with good natural drainage.
Poultry houses. toilets, hog sheds.
manure piles, or other polluting sur
roundings should be at distance from
the COW stable. The latter should
have a floor that is nOn-absorbent and
easily cleaned; and smooth walls kept
free from cobwebs and dust. -Four
square feet of glass is the desirable
amount of window space per COW, and
at least 500 cubic feet of air should
be provided for each animal.
The building where the milk is
handled should be so placed as to be
free from dust and stable odors, and
should be divided into two compart-
ments, one for handling the milk and
the other for washing the utensils.
The room should be smooth-walled.
clean, and well ventilated. All milk
utensils should be Of durable. smooth.
non-absorbent material. Wooden uten-
sils are hard to sterilize. and are not
used in the best equipped dairies.
After the cows are prepared for
milking, each mixer should wash his
hands thoroughly with soap and water
and put on pair Of clean Overalls
and a jumper, or wear a suit, white II
possible. which is used for no other
purpose. Milking should be done only
with dry hands. After the milk is
taken to the milk house 1t should be
weighed, strained. and cooled at once.
Bottled milk may be kept cool during
transportation by the use Of cracked
ice placed in the crates.
