.Scrub Hulls Cost .More Tlinii Good
Ones.
According to reports received from
Douglas county, Minn., a group of en
tei prising dairymen in that county
profited by the use of good purebred
bulls for a period of eight years, for
a total investment of only $25 apiece.
Those dairymen banished the scrub
bulls from their territory, and re-
lllaccd them with rood nnrclirorl lmllu
that they bought co-operatively. The
Duns were sniuou irom one group or
faims to another every two years un
til each former had the use of each
bull for two years. In this way each
man hud the use of a good purebred
bull at less cost than he could keep
It scrub bull.
The economy of replacing a lot of
poor bulls with high-class purebred
bulls capable of Increasing produc
tion of the herds, is becoming very
aiinaroilt to I iOod mnnv fnrmoru In
Nebraska as well as in other states.
According to government reports
Nebraska ranks second in the number
of persons enrolled and first in the
number of animals listed in the
"Better Sires-Better Stock" cam
paign which tho Agricultural College
Is conducting in co-operation with
county farm bureaus. Keep "swat
ting" the scrub sire and bring No
broska into f i-.st place in the number
of persons enrolled in the "Better
Sire," campaign.

COli NT ' SCHOOL NOTLS
W. E. VOSS, Superintendent
Since the iluys hnvo been r.hort
and somewhat cold, there has been
considerable absence and larulneso in
some of our rural and in ono of our
urban schools. The county attend
ance officer seems to think that tills
soasonal condition effects some par
ents so that they do not get up early
enough to get their children to
school on time if at all. .It would
appear that such things should not
bring parents to cause children to
be absent, tardy, or to play truant.
The facts that have been collected in
such cases would indicate that some
of the parents in question seek to
cover their neglect by offering tho
excuso for their childrons' absence
that they had been "sick." Some of
these "sick" children have been
found to have spent those days, cut
short by getting up in the middle of
the forenoon, helping mother or fath
er, skating, hunting, going to town,
or killing time around the home.
These cat.es i.re being taken care of
as they come lo our attention through
the functioning of tho attendance,
law. This s not so hard to do be
cause every community has people
who are interested to see that every
child has an opportunity to get well
tho education obtainable through our
free schools, unci that the large sums
of monev spent for schools will ren
der a full service to every child.
A striking Indilterence towards
the educational interests of children
is shown by some of the parents who
plan to move elsewhere soon. They
attempt to withdraw their children
from school several weeks or even
months before they will actually
leave the district. This, of course,
cannot be permitted; but what idea
such parents have for taking their
children out of school so soon be
foic moving nway is hard to toll.
One would almost surmise that they
feel that their sending the children
to school is not intended so much
for the good of the children as it is
to satisfy a desire to conform in
some measure with tho custom and
ideals of tho people in general and
incidentally with the rinmrrmint
I of tho law. When these motives
I have been met in their estimation,
lour trouDio liegins. Already, we
I have a number of patrons who ap
Ipcar more or less highly incensed bo
I cause it is teing required of them
til their actuul changing of residenco
takes place. Since they have taken
the position that they may take
their childron out of school at any
time they pluasu under such circum
stances, and wo tho position that they
mist keep their children in school,
we can appreciate their attitudo to
wards us and the law. With them
as with nearly all other persons who
have to meet requirements, it is just
ordinary human naturo functioning
that makes trouble and not the na
ture of the lequi.-emcnt. While duo
allowance is tuado for this nature of
people, nover-the-less wo feel in dut
bound to see that all children attend
school when possible. The educa
t'nual interests of children go above

FARM JIURLAU.
By Geneva Rankin.
The milk campaign that is being
carried on through the Extension
Service of the College of Iowa is a
campaign full of merits. Dakota
county, duo to its proximity to Wood
bury county, should keep in touch
with this campaign and join in this
educational phase of the study of
milk Milk is ith food and drink.
The real value of milk is not gener
ally understood. It has had a place
in the diet because it has pleased the
taste rather than because its food
value has been appreciated. Some
families make the niiataku by cutting
down tho amount of milk used while
they go on using foods that have ad
vanced in proportion.
What does it take' to make a good
diet?
1. Body building food such as milk,
eggs, lean meat, cheese, fish, beans,
pens, nuts, ccrcaU
2. Energy foods such as cream,
butter, fat meat, vegetable oils, nuts
sugars, starches.
3. Mineral matter as in milk,
cheese, vegetables like caullflour,
spinach, celery, cabbage, string beans
Iron, whick is found especially in
egg yolk, lean beef, spinach, stripg
beans, whole wheat bread, oatmeal,
prunes, raisins.
4. Vltamine substances as found
in milk, cruam, butter, vegetables
and fruits.
What milk alone contributes lo
the diet:
I. Milk furnishes tho best rp.o
teins for body building.
2. Milk supplies enough mineral
matter for the rapidly growing body
of the Infant. In the best source of
lime and is jIso rich in phosphorous.
3. Whole milk is one of the best
sources of vitamines.
4. Milk furnishes fat which is nn
abundant souice ot energy.
Dr. McCollum, noted Food Scien
tist, says that "No family has the
right to purc'ir.se any meat until
each member ha.i a pint of milk
daily."
Dr. Sherman says, "Allow as much
money for milk, vegetables, and fruits
as for meats, fish and eggs." 'Fami
lies who must make overy penny
count should buy less meat lather
than less milk. Provide li pints
of milk 'daily for small children and
one ipint for older children and
adults."
