CONSIDERABLE excitement has been
stirred up among the dealers in milk
in many localities in our State. A
mans reputation fcl honesty stands
him nothing in this business. He may
purchase the best cows, feed them most
carefully, take the utmost pains to
have unauthorized milk, and yet un-.
der the test of the lactometer he may
be condemned. This test is notably
unreliable. A few days ago, milk was
taken from the same can within
few minutes and the lactometer regis
tered differently. During rainy sea
son, the grass is full of moisture and
an increase of the flow of milk is found
with correspondingly decrease in its
quality, yet being pure milk. The
lactometer at the best, only affords
suspicion Of adulteration, but under
our laws, its testimony will condemn
the milk, no matter if the milk should
be taken from the COW in the presence
of the inspector. In fact, such testi-
mony would be ruled out of Court.
This seems ridiculous, but late trial
not many miles from Beverly, affords
ground for just such comment. Let
our citizens in their dealings with our
milkmen, consider their good character
(and we believe them all honest mem
End not be in a hurry to utter com

ACCORDING to The Philadelphia
Record reports from nearly all the
peach growing districts of Burlington
county indicate that the early fruit
will be almost total failure, and only
about 10 per cent. can be marketed.
The continued wet weather has cansed
the peaches to rot on the trees before
they reached maturity and the result
will be heavy loss to the growers.
Many trees that were loaded down
with well.developed peaches only a few
days ago are now covered with decayed
fruit.

NEGATIVE evidence is not worth
much in law. That man did not see
or hear certain thing, does not prove
that it did not occur, if other men did
see or hear that certain thing. So in

the consumers, as well as relieving the burden

the case with GREEN'S august Flozoey and

increase the size of the bottles containing
