profession here but the results Of their
visit Wall be sent forth or millions OF

pecially the southern part, will be bet
ter known in circles interested in
dairying than it has ever been.

of dairy farming, unable to expand
further, New York decreasing in pro-
duction, Minnesota permitting little
increase in development, and the con-
sumption of dairy products increasing
rapidly, these big producers and ex-
perts are looking to@southern Idaho as
the region into which the dairy indus
try can expand.

expected to have two-fold object
