There is not a perfect degree of har-
mony in the camp of the milk producers,
for, besides their perpetual wars with
the milk exchange of New York, they
are frequently battling among them
selves. The project of forming mani
moth stock company of milk producers
does not meet with appreciation in Con-
necticut and the farmers along the Hud-
son are virtually going it alone. Repre-
sentatives of the central milk union, who
met at Middletown, N. Y, the headquar-
tiers of the milk union in that section,
have agreed upon plan which dispenses
with middlemen and provides for the di-
rect delivery of the milk from the pro-
Queer to the consumer under the system
In vogue in London and in Syracuse.
The plan contempiates joint stock COM
pany, The Five States Milk Company"
The stock is to be apportioned, in limited
number of 50 shares, among the milk
shippers. Creameries are to be estab-
lished at suitable shipping points for the
surplus milk. A central station is to be
established in New York, with delivery
wagons. All milk will be handled from
this central station. The union figures
that by this plan it can save half the
present cost of delivery and the middle
mems profits and can place a superior
quality OF milk in the hgnds of the con-
sumers at less price than now, while the
producer, who is a stOckholder in the
company, will realize for his milk from
Ito &c quart more. President Seeley
has issued new price card as follows !:
ssIhe union of milk producers price for
milk on and after September I, 1890 and
until otherwise ordered, shall be Sc per
quart net to producers, with an addition
al allowance Of SC per can where the
same is delivered on the west side of the
Hudson river The Exchange price is
. I-2c per quart.

Some men are all nose and whiskers,
while others run mostly to feet and un-

Some are little else than fancy wrappers,
others merely a pleasant ''smell'' and the
