There are few branches of agriculture that take as little fertility from the soil and at the same time returns a profit to the farmer as dauy farming. While teaching dairy farming is not the purpose of this bulletin, yet it is the basis of the lessons presented. These lessons present the subject from the standpoint of clean milk production, milk products, milk as a food in the home and as a supplement to other food materials, and have been prepared to give to the organized school work in elementary agriculture additional impetus in dairying, to provide material for instruction that is within the range of elemen- tary pupils, and to furnish a topic for home projects that may be worked out with profit to every community and with real educational value to the pupils concerned. SOURCES OF INFORMATION. Practically all the subject matter for class use and instructions for homo projects will bo found in Imlletins available, either free or at a small cost. Almost every State agricultural college has published ' Prepared under the direction of F. R. lloal'l, Specialist in Agricultural Education, States Tlclations Service, U. S.
