 iirely distinct in the matter of inistruction and the studemt for the time 

 confinesi himis'elfl strictly to the subject in haind- Thus hei may take creiam 

 separationi without taking butter miaking,, thoughi he may» not take but- 

 ter making without having had creiam' sieparation. 



Asi showing some of the subjects that are treated in' this departm<ent, 

 . aside from the ordinary quesiiions of dairying, it i& well to notice that 

 nine weeks are giveni to the study of Factory Management under Mr.. Erf, 

 .and' anj equal amount of time to city milk supply under Mr. Frasier. Both 

 lubjects are elective and! offered only for those students especially inter- 

 ested' m these particular lines. 



The subjects- of Stock Judging and Breeding are taught ini the De- 

 I)artment of Animal Husibandry aad only the special dairy subjects are 

 comsidered under the management of dairyfarmi&astaugtitbyMr, Eraser. 

 It is the design- of this department, not only tooffer the study of fundameni- 

 lal studies! in dairy imdiustrieis, but to offer them separately,, so that he 

 shall have a clar idea at all times' of the proiblem he is studying, whether 

 "it isi the co-w herself, her feed', her housing, or the care of the milk; or 

 whether it isi a question of the ma;chaniery of the dairy, the character of 

 the product; or the kind of package in. which it is sold.
