No line OF agriculture in West

than dairying, due 10 a consider.
able extent of course, to the i'm.
provement In local marking, etc.
The 1920 census values the daily
products In the state at more than
S11,000,0 900, or more than double
the figures for ten years ago. 1t is
probable, furthermore, that the de
velopment in the last half OF the
ten year period has been much
more rapid than in the first half.
Since the census figures were tax

dairy business Is furnished by the
extension division OF the univer.
sity, which has cooperated closely
with the university dairy depart
ment in preparing dairy program
that Fits" West Virginia.
The biggest project during the
past two years has been the impor-
tation OF high grade and registered
cows into the state. Since Janu.
airy, 1920, fifteen carloads OF such
cattle, representing total cost OF
$40 900, have been distributed in
Monongalia, Ohio, Cabel, Lewis, Up

when every woman and every man stood shoulder to

one sure channel by which they could actually help

calls Of various kind that had to do with relief and

The prices Of mnk IN West Vir-
GINA is among the best In The Unt-
ted States. In the larger cities and
towns, the retail price OF milk
ranges from IL to 90 cents per
quart. The consumption OF milk Is
steadily increasing, due to the edu;
cational work that has been done
in most sections in showing the
value OF milk as food. and the I'M
portance OF q liberal supply OF milk
for children particularly.
The home demonstration agents,
in such counties as have them have
doubtless been among the leading
influences in bringing about this
use OF milk. The constant work
among the farm women has begun
TO have the right effect. and on the
farms where milk had ceased to be
an important article OF daily diet,
it has taken It's proper place again.
But OF course 1t is in the cities
that the most noticeable results
have been obtained.
