In speaking of his offer, which
all Interested believe to be a very
generous one, Mr. Selfors says, "1
am Informed that other Individuals
are giving cash prlxes, having the
Idea of giving encouragement to
the youngsters, that they may get
a thrill and ulsu some reasonable
remuneration for their efforts.
Knowing that this kind of endea
vor Is one of the very best for
broadening the Interest In bettor
and more profitable dairying, I
fefl that no parents should neglect
i hair children's welfare along this
Hue, but should try to increase among them being
their Intorest
school of life."
