75 Enthusiastic
Students Attend
Milking School
A two-day milking school
held last week at the 1 Lan
caster Farm and Home
Center was attended by 75
enthusiastic milkers. And,
according to N. Alan Bair,
the assoicate county agent
who organized the school,
there were almost that many
applicants who couldn't be
accomodated because there
just wasn’t enough room.
For those who were
disappointed at not getting
into the school here, Bair
pointed out that there will be
a three-day milking school at
Penn State on April 1-3. The
fee for the school will be $lO,
Bair said, and students must
pre-register. More in
formation on the school can
be had either from Bair or by
contacting: Agricultural

plans to conduct anothe
local school, Bair re r
that it wasn't likely because
of the inherent difficulties in
getting the instructors. Most
of the milking school in
structors are resident
faculty members at the
university, which means
they aren't as available for
off-campus instruction as
are members of the ex
tension staff.
Bair said he was well
pleased with the response to
the school. They covered the
subject of milking from
inside the udder to inside the
bulk tank. Technique,
equipment and main
tamence, and the physiology
of the udder and lactation
were all explained.
All the students were in
terested and enthusiastic,
but Bair commented
especially on the vo-ag
students who were enrolled
through their schools.
