about cleanliness from a booklet

The stories are about children of

cuss it. This is very interesting as
we can give our thoughts and opin-

vice of the University of Minneso-
ia announced this week new lamb

lent sheep raiseTs and to demon
strate the best methods of breed
ing, feeding, and managing focks
of sheep.

Fattening of Lambs
to be Morris Theme

With what success and profit
can lambs be fattened in western
Minnesota for the market, and
what are the best and most profit
able feeds to use in fattening them
art questions to which answers will
be returned at the second annual
Lamb Feeders and Sheep Crow
ers' Day meeting to be heldsat the
West Central Station at Morris,
Monday, January 80.
A carload of lambs bought on
the market at South St. Paul have
been fattened at the university sta
ton at Morris in eight lots of 80
each, a different ration for each
lot. The finished lambs ready for
market will be on exhibition and
will answer several important
questions about reeding by the
records they have made.
Beginning at 10 a. m. the lambs
will be inspected, and results OBJ
tanned from the feeding trials will
be discussed by P. IS. Jordan of
the West Central Station. J. S.
Montgomery of the Central Live
stock Commission company will
analyze the market value of the
experimental lambs, and P. A.
Anderson of University Farm will
speak on the effect of Type and

presented in the afternoon: "How

February % to March 8. Applca-
tions for admission TO this course
should be made now to w. b.
Combs, dairy products specialist.
The course has been reorganized
and will have some new features,
says Professor Combs. More but
ter and starter judging and cream
grading will be done than ever be-
fore. To meet a demand, inforna-
ton and training in the manufac-
ture of sweet curd or cottage
cheese will be given, and it is
planned to devote some time to
the manufacture of ice cream and
to questions pertaining to the hand
ling of market milk.
An effort will be made during
the course to formulate system
of cream gradins which will be &C
ceptable to creamerymen of the
state. Cream grading practice will
be given under the direction of ex-
perienced men. 1t is expected that
as "a result distinct progress will be
made in movement to define the
grades more definitely and uni
formly. The manufacture OF
powdered buttermilk will also be
given attention.
The detailed program for the
course, the class room and labora-
tory features of which will be var
led by judging contests and the
celebration of Visitors Day, will
soon be made public. Announce
ment of the personnel of the group
of instructors from the outside will
increase the interest in the pro-
gram for the advanced course.

FRIDAY afternoon during the in

The attendance was smaller

Thursday afternoon we had a

than just the ordinary kind.
The first grade has completed the
Eskimo booklets and are very
proud of their hand1work.
The advanced geography class
continued its travelling this last
week. Germany, France, Switzer-
land and Belgium were visited. We
found the Alps very beautiful. 1t
was especially interesting to watch
the winter sports in Switzerland
We also visited the bear pit and
heard stories about it. We found
the story of William Tell very in
teresting. Germany had many beau
tlful cathedrals and museums to
visit. The silk factories held our
attention a good deal of the time
while in France.
