(Louisiana Party at the Unir, of Wisconsin College of Agriculture.)
A dairy observation party composed ef 64 farmers and others interested
hi the dairy industry made a ten-day tour of the leading milk-produoug eee- |
tioas of Wisconsin in October, Including visits to the University of Wisconsin
sad the University of Illinois and a stay of three days at the Notional Dairy
8b-?w at Cliieago. The party was composed of 63 persons from Louisiana
nud 11 from Mississippi. The tour was made under the direction of C. H.
S t ap l es, dairy husbandman of the Extension Division, Louisiana State Univer
sity.
In Wisoonsin the dairy farmers ft ret stopped at Fort Atkinson, where
, they visited Hoard's Guernsey farm; the Jamas Manufacturing Company, mak
| era of dairy farm equipment; the plant of Hoard's Dairyman, a weekly publi
cation devoted to the dairy Industry, and a number of leading dairy taras in
that viciait y. At each place the visitor« were taken In charge by the owner
and shewn ever the farm and through the barns. Short addr ess e e were made
by A. J. Glover and P. C. Bur chard, editors of Heard's Dairyman. "Tha secret
ef s n eoee e la dairying;" said Mr. Glover, 'Ta to get good cews, good equipment,
and la heap the premises clean and attractive by the see et palm and white
wash. A man who does these things will soon become so interested In the
bénins sa that it will not he drudgery." Mr. Barehard spoke on the value of
eow-testing associations, which be said were a most important factor tat the
dairy industry. 'Testing mite Is the only accurate means of telling what a
snw «an do," said Mr. Burchard. "In Wisconsin there are 256,060 cows on
HR, which makes It possible to gradually Increase the average production.
The average annual production per cow In the stete has increased 1.666
pounds In the last ten years."
From Port Atkinson the party pr oceed ed to Waukesha, where they sp e nt
n half day vtstttag the dairy herds of that county. Waukesha Caunty la said
to have more dairy cows than any like area In tha United States. The dairy
bans here, as elsewhere, were large and modern, equipped In many 1
vMh steal stanchions, cemeat floors, running water, electric lights, vemtilati
■raten», teed carriers, silos, etc. A community sales pavillon in which sales
ef daisy cattle are held tour times a year was one of the many la I meat lag
things shown toe visiters, and which indicated tha extent tha development
ed the dairying industry had reached la W&ukeeha County.
Vielt University ef Wisconsin.
Tha next place visited was Madiaon, where all of one mtiteiny was spent
Inspecting the buildings, equipment and livestock of the college of agitati
«, University of Wiaooealn. The enrollment In the University was M32
dents, ef which 260 warn ta kin g agricultural courses. At aooa luncheon
an iddr eea of weloome was delivered by Governor Phillipe ef Wtacmuto. who

Groan Oeuaty furnished a etrtkiag example ef what dairying wiH 4s to

fermes» found it necessary to make a change to teste farming operations as
«ha long continued growing of wheat had dep l eted the sofl to such an sortent
thnt this crop was no longer profitable. In fact, many of tha fasmteg lands
ware said for taxes. Tha same lands todhy are selling st from »209 to 8300
an acre, and dairying is responsible for this increase to values. Tha
production of dairy products in this county now amounts to 88,060,000.
At the National Dairy Show.
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, October 8, 9 and 10, were spent at the
National Dairy Show at Chicago, where the visitors saw representatives of the
leading dairy breeds exhibited and judged, and attended the National skies
They saw a Holstein male calf, three and one-half months old, sell for $6,000,
a Jersey bull seli for 36,100, and a Jersey cow bring 83,360. At the Jersej
sale 40 cattle brought an average price of $1,453.
Among other things of interest at the Dairy Show were exhibits of the
latest inventions for dealing with the production and marketing of dairy prod
nets and an educational exhibit of milk products and their uses try the United
States Department of Agriculture.
The Louisiana-Mississippi delegatiqn found time to visit points of inter
est to Chicago, including the Swift packing plant, whers they were entertained
at tancheon.
The University at Illinois.
Saturday, October 11, was spent st the University of Illinois. The morn
ing was d«voted to inspocting tha buildings and equipment and the afternoon
to a visit to the college farm and livestock barns. An Informal täte by Dean
Davenport of the college ef agriculture was one of the events of the day moot
enjoyed by tee visitors. Hs said that he welcomed the delegation with espe
clal warmth because it was led by Prof. W. R. Dodson, whom he regarded at
a man of the highest worth and standing in tha agricultural field.
The Dean stated that the agricultural college of the University of Illinois
was made what it is by the people of the State, led by the fanners whe
demanded it. The farmers led the movement for the development of the
college. The farmers of Illinois realize that the agricultural college costs a
lot of money, said the Dean, but they also realize that it would cost them
much mors to attempt to farm without ita help. '"Things are going ahead in
Ulinels," continued Dr. Davenport *"We have arrested the down grade and
are started to the right direction. Farmers are looking more and more to th<
college for help and guidance." More than 1,100 students are enrolled foi
agricultural courses to the University of Illinois, which ha« a total enrollment
of abeut seven thousand.
Dean Davenport Mid that Louisiana was fortunate in having the SUt<
University and the Agricultural College combined and organized as oas ir.
stitutlon, and added that only by such organization could the best devetoj
ment and the best results be obtained.
