APPROPRIATION TO DEPARTMENT OF DAIRY HUSBANDRY (21) A recommendation that an appropriation of $2,175 be made to the Department of Dairy Husbandry from excess receipts in the Official Test Division to cover estimated expenses above the original budget estimate. I also recommend that effective July 1, 1939, a revolving fund be authorized for Dairy official testing to be credited on July 1 with any excess of income over appropriations for the current year. After July 1, all receipts from this work will be credited to the revolving fund, and I further suggest that charges for tests on University herds be made and credited to this fund and that all expenses of this work be charged to the fund. Any balance in the fund at the end of each year would be carried forward with the understanding t h a t if any substantial surplus accumulates, consideration will be given to disposing of it.

On motion of Mr. Moschel, this recommendation was adopted, and the appropriation was made, by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Adams, Mr. Cleary, Mr. Jensen, Mr. Karraker, Dr. Meyer, Mr. Moschel, Mrs. Plumb, Mr. Wieland; no, none; absent, Mr. Horner, Mr. Mayer, Mr. Pogue.
