SKIMMILK AND BUTTERMILK
CONTAIN VALUABLE FOOD
C. D. Dahle Produces Table 8howing
Valuable Data.
C. D. Dahle of the division of dairy
husbandry. University of Minnesota,
makes out a strong case for greater
use of skimmilk and buttermilk in the
households of the land.
"Only about one-third of the solid
matter of milk is removed in making
butter," he says, "leaving two-thirds
of the solid matter in the skimmilk
and buttermilk. These solids are edi
ble and have about one-half the food
value of the total solids of the milk."
Mr. Dahle presents the following
tables comparing the composition of

"More skimmilk should be used in

Teacher Training in Service.
The division of agricultural educa
tion, .co-operating with the state de
partment of education, is doing more
definite work this year than ever be
fore with its graduates who have gone
out to teach agriculture in high
schools. This division not only keeps
"olose tabs" on Its graduates and gives
them a helping hand when they need
It, but it answers many calls for coun
sel from the graduates of other in
stitutions who are teaching agriculture
in Minnesota high schools.
This work, known as teacher train
ing in service, is under the direction
of Paul Calrow, state supervisor with
the department of education. If the
new teacher seems to be in difficulty,
or needB a little experienced guidance
in getting over the Vough places, Sup
ervisor Calrow informs Dr. A. V.
Storm and his men, and a representa
tive of the agricultural education di
vision is sent to counsel and advise
the teacher.
Dr. P. W. Lathrop of the division
has spent a large part of the present
college year in making these visits.
All the men who were graduated last
spring and are now teaching agricul
ture have been visited by him. In
most instances he spends the major
part of two days in going over and
working out the special problems en
countered by the teacher.

Polled, Brown Swiss, Holstein, Jetfsey,

The big meeting of tha series fciU

dairy division, University of Minne
sota, but now of Iowa State College
at Ames, and D. D. Aitkin of Flint,
Michigan, one of the leading breeders
of Holstein cattle in this country.
Farmers' week at University Farm
offers programs that will profit all per
sons who take an intent in any
phase of farming. A special program,
for instance, will be put on by the hor
ticultural department on Friday, Jan
uary 5, for potato growers. Several
members of the faculty at University
Farm and- representatives of the Min
nesota Potato Exchange and the State.
Department of Agriculture will speak
on subjects which vitally concern the
business of growing potatoes at this
time.
The program for the homemakers
the women from the farms and towns
will be started early Tuesday, Jan
uary 2. The need for recreation, mod
ern appliances and machines for the
home, and first aid in the nursery will
be subjects considered the first day.
Care of the school child, how to anuse
the children, adequate diets, short
cuts in clothing construction, poultry
for women, how to fight contagion,
trimming hats, studies in preparing

onstration, discussions, conferences,
etc. The railroads have cut the round
trip rate 25 per cent to those who
buy their "going" ticket on the "cuttifi
cate plan."
More Scientific Farming Necessary.
Prof. Andrea Boss, vice director of
the Minnesota Experiment station and
chief of the farm crops and farm man
agement division of the university,
says that farmers, to meet the present
adverse conditions, should look upon
crops as affording opportunities to
utilize their own labor and the labor
of-certain members of their families
and also of such hired labor as they
may be able to employ for the purpose
of making gain.
"This means that the labor must
be used efficiently and that crops
must be produced economically," he
says. "In choosing the three or four
crops that enter into the farm scheme
on most farms, it becomes essential
to choose those which do not compete
with each other for the farmer's labor
so that the employment demand will
be spread out well over the year.*
"Under such circumstances the time
of the farmer and his family will be
more constantly and steadily employ
ed and, as is the case with the labor
er, the more hours that a farmer and
his family work the more hours' pay
he will receive."
Various problems that the average
settler on cutover lands must face are
discussed in a new bulletin entitled,
"Making a Living on a Farm," writ
ten by W. L. Cavert, and published by
the agricultural extension division of
the University of Minnesota. The bul
letin gives the experience in tabloid
form of nearly 400 farmers in the tim
ber counties of Beltrami and Itasca
for the years 1918, 1919, and 1920.
Such questions as the proper type- of
buildings to erect, what machinery to
buy, right kind of livestock to keep,*
cropping systems, etc., are discussed
in the light of the experience of those
who have already gone "through the
mill." This bulletin will be sent free
to all persons who will ask the Office
of Publications, University Farm, St
