1925 Third District Agricultural School Milking Squad. A caption in the 1925 Mulerider reads, "It has been the policy of the College to lend boys and girls one or two cows from the dairy herd, so long as these lasted, and to permit other students to bring profitable cows and milk them at the dairy barn. Each cow is charged with the feed she consumes and the profit goes to the boy or girl who milks her. Most of these boys and girls have been making their board the past year by so doing. Considerable fortitude and energy are required to enable a young man or a young lady to go to the dairy barn three times a day and milk a cow; however, that kind of boy or girl will succeed in educating himself or herself and will develop into the men and women who prosper in this world."
