no ministers preaching the gospel in
our pulpits and no teachers leading our
children into the light of truth i'll the
Sunday schools, no singing of hymns
of praise and supplications to the God
of Nations. but instead, shat all would
be playing golf or baseball or tennis
or motoring or attending a picnic or

late Saturday night dancing or play
ing poker or dissipating that they have
to sleep all day, Sunday to reeuperate?,

TO STUDY ACTUAL
COST OF MILK
PRODUCTION
BY RAYMOND ELLIS
A ssistant Farm Advisor

Some months ago a number of dairy
men in Sacramento county conceived
the idea of studying the actual cost OF
producing gallon of milk or a pound
of butterfat under actual dairying con
ditions As a consequence, other see
tions decided to take up this work, and
in order to do so got an appropriation
from the state legislature to make the
study This money was then turned
over to the division of farm manage
ment of the University of California
and the work of gathering statistics
assigned to them The idea in wanting
this data is to correct the idea, prevail
ent in most large cities, that the dairy
men are charging too much for their
milk. -&
Inasmuch as Imperial county is not
only one of the greatest dairving coun-
ties in the state, but is also unique in
its methods, it was selected Jas. one of
the districts from which such data is
to be gathered. Because of the dis
tance from the main office at Berkeley,
it has become necessary to work out
Il plan of procedure for this district
which differs from other parts of the
state. 1t would be too costly to send
ii field man here to do this work, so
the plan was finally hit upon to work
through the high school agricultural
teachers and their classes of boys. Ac
cording to present plans the work will
be carried on in that way.
The data desired by the men in
charge consists of Il first inventory, Il
set of twelve monthly reports and a
final inventory. The blanks for these
reports are already made up and will
be furnished from the main office.
Fhey consist of Il series of questions as
20 valuations and costs and can be
filled out very quickly. The monthly
reports can be made up very easily in
+, half an hour by the man making the
reports. The actual work of collabor-
tting the figures will be done at the
main office in Berkeley.
Prof. r. l.. Adams of the division of
farm management has sent one of his
field men, Mr.. Brown, to the valley to
study the situation and work will start
Immediately in gathering the first in
ventories and the first monthly ne
ports. At the present time twenty some
counties are sending in reports from
over four hundred different dairies. AT
the end of the year some very valuable
data should be available.
