VISITORS IA TO IL AT HALF

FURIOUS ONSLAUGHT.

After being led at the half by
IA to II count, the fast Hopkins quint
came through with 33 to % victory
over the Guardsmen in the fastest
game seen at the armory this season.
The game was played Saturday night
January 9Th, before a capacity crowd.
The quarter ended with neither team
having any decided advantage, the
count being Z to z. In the second
quarter the locals outscored their fast
rivals by getting seven points with
Hopkins content with four.
The third quarter was the worst
session for the Guards. Laudon, who
had been held scoreless by Bobzin in
the first half, made three baskets in
this period and with the help Of his
team mates, ran the score to "a for
Hopkins and Is for the locals. The
last quarter saw fast work from both
teams with the visitors having de-
cided advantage in scoring and team
work, running their count up to 80
with Redwood scoring only points

For the local team no individual

EAT MORE BUTTER
FOR HEALTH AND
FARMERS GAIN
MINNESOTA DAIRY COUNCIL
SEES NEED FOR INCREASED
DEMAND FOR DAIRY PRO-
DUCTS IF STATE PROFITS.

With butterfat the one staple up
on which the American farmer can
depend to net him a profit, year af-
ter year, it is only to be expected
that he should be greatly concerned
about any over-production of butter.
While such an excess is by no means
impossible, it is not likely to occur
if dairy farmers are alive to their OPP
portunities to expand their markets,
according to the Minnesota Dairy
Council. Some idea of the extent OF
this opportunity may be CLEANED from
a statement made by DR.. C. w. Lar
son, Chief of the United States Bur-
eau of Dairy Industry, at recent
creamery convention. DR.. Larson
stated that if each pound of butter
were cut into 48 small pieces and each
citizen of consuming age would eat
one additional piece at each meal,
the per CAPITA consumption would be
increased five pounds, or a total of
100000 pounds.
Since only 1,3OO,0OO,000 pounds of
butter are being manufactured by
American creameries annually, such
an expansion would require an in
crease of nearly 80 per cent in the
present output. With new markets
to absorb such an expansion in pro-
duction, an additional $25,000,O00
would accrue to the dairy farmers of
Minnesota, while the total for the
farmers of the United States would
be nearly $150,0OO,OO0. Minnesota's
share of the increase would be ap-
proximately 60 per cent of the value
of the entire wheat crop of the state
for 1925, the latest year for which fig
ures are available at present.
By working through the National
Dairy Council, the newly-formed Min
nesota Council hopes to bring about
greater demand for butter, as well
as to protect the market which dairy
farmers already enjoy. Council work
has been carried on in Philadelphia
for several years and that city today
consumes an average of "a pounds of
butter per person annually, compared
with a per capita consumption of II
pounds for the United States. The
consumer, once acquainted with the
value of butter as a food, usually in
creases his purchases of it material
