Work on Fourth Northwest
Dairy Exposition Starts
Offices Have Been Opened at New
Nicollet Hotel, Minneapolis-
Breeders Are Interested

Promotion work on the fourth
annual northwest dairy exposition to
be held at the Minnesota State Fair
September A to II, has been initiated
with the opening of the dairy show
committee office in the New Nicollet
Hotel, Minneapolis, and the engage
ment Of two men for field service
work in all parts Of the state.
Last year field service work car
ried on by the committee covered 76
counties in Minnesota, some work in
South Dakota and in few counties
on the North Dakota side of the Red
River Valley. j. F. Conner, of Red
wood Falls, Minnesota, is now cover
ing the southwest section of the state.
Mr.. Conner has been identified with
the field service department of the
Northwest Dairy Exposition for the
past four years. M. J. Cort, Mime
apolis, is at work in the Red River
Valley. Mr.. Cort has been instru-
mental in the organization of hun
dreds Of cooperative creameries in
Minnesota.
The work of the field men consists
in visiting breeders Of dairy cattle in
an effort to bring them to the show,
calling on bankers and local business
men to enlist their aid again this year
in carrying out the diversified farm
ing program of the show, and address
sing meetings Of the commercial clubs,
service clubs, farm groups, dairy as
sociations and other business organi-
cations.
Plans for the 1926 show are well
under way. According to Edward
Barr, secretary and executive director
Apf the dairy exposition committee, ed
ucational exhibits this year will be
presented on much larger scale than
in other years. They are designed,
he declares, to illustrate graphically
the story of farm Investigation here
in the Northwest. Novelty exhibits
are being prepared to replace 91The
Purple Cow" Of nursery rhyme fame
which attracted 125, 900 people to the
cattle building during the 1928
show, Mr.. Barr asserts.
The new Northwest Dairy EXPOSE
ton committee was appointed last
week by Governor Theodore Chris
Hanson. The committee this year in
cludes the governors of five states,
Minnesota, North and South Dakota,
Iowa and Wisconsin, and representa-
tive business men, agricultural lead
ers, railroad executives, bankers and
university men from all parts of the
Northwest. Governor Christensen is
general chairman.
Cattle entries for 1926 are expect
ed to top the high mark of 1870 for
the 1925 show. Prizes offered for
cattle amount to $28,786. Beef
breeds will receive $13,231 of this
amount and dairy breeds $15, 555.
Early indications point to great in
terest in this years show among
breeders.

haven't sense enough to do for our
selves. Out Of the sacrifices of many
we squander the money in competing
church buildings and expect the old
miracles over again. The crowd
learned that organized grouping is
necessary for getting things done and
the world will find thru the organized
church the best distribution of sup
plies. And it all grew out of boy
who was willing to sacrifice to the
limit and go partners with the Al
mighty. The hope of the world is in
the hands of its lads and lassies
whose gifts of life are being freely
offered to their Lord today.
THE MESSAGE
Johns purpose in telling the event
is to find in it the suggestion and
reason for the message that followed
it in the Capernaum synagog. Here
Jesus faced the same who had clam
ored for His browning the day before.
He charged them with self-seeking in
their demand and sought to lift their
sight above the symbol to the reality,
from M erial to spiritual kingdoms.
That he carried them as far as He did
is a great achievement. But they re-
fused to see in Him the living bread
that God provides for all men, to I'M
derstand that only as one feeds on
His word and assimilates His life can
he in the fullest sense live. He is not
the dessert but the full meal. The
people followed their accustomed
mode of thinking that works were
the things God desired. Jesus replied
that it was not an act but an attitude;
that the real work is the attitude of
belief in Him. They leveled the
Carpenter below the Law-Giver.
Jesus took them into the realm of ac-
complishment-if it "Giveth life unto
the world" then one has proof of its
coming from God. Men would say,
eff he lives in a monestary he must
be priest; Jesus would reply, eff
life is holier where he is, he is
priest" Men are ''long" on pedigree,
God on service. The people refused to
follow Him into the world of spirit,
the disciples also wavered, and the
period of loneliness began for Him
whose life is bread of all fulness of
life.
