water supply which will never fail.
Let the pastures be brought into the
best possible condition. The brush
and weeds may be cut off, the old
moss-fbound turf rooted up and seed
ed down to good pasture grass, and
the water supply attended to. In the
meadows the same system of im
provement may be adopted. Fences
may be rebuilt and stones all picked
up clean.
Following this plan carefully and
systematically for a few years the

The Dairy Division of the United
States Department of Agriculture will
conduct a milk and! cream contest
which will be open to all producers
of market milk in the United States.
Space has been allotted for the use
of the Dairy Division in making the
exhibit. The first contest of. this kind
was held in connection with the Na
tional Dairy Show, Chicago, February
15-24, .1906, under the direction of the
Dairy Division. Milk and cream were
sent from 13 different states and much
interost was shown by the Dairymen
and it proved to be a valuable educa
tional feature. Results were published
as Bulletin 87, B. A. L,, U. S. Dcpart-
ment of Agriculture.
Since the first National contest sev
eral states have had similar exhibits,
including New Hampshire, Ohio, Con
necticut, Illinois, Missouri, Massachu
setts, Pennsylvania and Michigan.

contests. The object of this contest
is educational and for the benefit of
all interested in pure milk. The milk

position, 20 for bacteria, 5 for acidity,
and 10 for appearance of package and
cleanliness of milk. The quality of the
milk will be clearly shown by the

smiling faintly, 'am glad to meet you
as a physician, though I can't admit
you are a gentleman."
