Learn the Why and the Wherefore. 



Dairy education is not a goal, it is not the end 

 sought ; it is a tool to be used in attaining the desired 

 end, and just as some can not drive a nail without 

 marring the wood or even saw a board straight, so 

 some may never profit by education. 



Education is training the eye to see, to read, and 

 the mind to think and draw right conclusions from 

 conflicting data and evidence. The seeker after 

 truth asks tAvo men, each of whom have been suc- 

 cessful, "What is the proper thing to do under such 

 circumstances." Their answers are diametrically 

 opposite. It is then only the man who can analyze 

 and figure out why seemingly opposite methods have 

 brought these men success; who can derive from 

 their answers that which will be of help in his con- 

 dition. 



Again, education is not only training, but it is 

 profiting by the experience of others; it is avoiding 

 the experimental period, the cutting and trying and 

 proving a truth that has already been proved and 

 demonstrated many times over. It accepts that 

 which is proved. 



The ancients knew that to keep milk sweet it must 

 be cold. Science has shown us M'hy, and the very 

 beginner in the business of dairying can learn Avhat 

 temperature is necessary to secure the keeping of 

 milk, he can learn whether or not he has that tem- 

 perature and know that given that temperature, the 

 milk received in the right condition will keep.
