Use Little MIX or Cream.

The government investigators find
that comparatively little milk is con-
sumed in most southern cities. The
amount per capita in Richmond is not
quite one-half pint. which is about
as high an average as in any other
southern city, while at Pensacola 1t is
as low as one.fifth pint. and in Mo
bile less than one-tenth pint, What is
true of the consumption of milk is
even more true of the consumption of
cream. 1t can be said, according to
these investigators, that practically
no cream Is sold in the south for use.

The Ranchwoman.

The success of Mrs. w. n. Sherman
and the beauty of her hospitable home,
the famous Minnewawa ranch in Cali
fornia should be an incentive to every
woman to hold fast to the home in
stinct while winning her way In the
business world. In the face of much
opposition and caustic comment Mrs.
Sherman, soon after leaving an east
ern college, bought large tract of I'M
improved land near Fresno. deter
mined by her own efforts to develop
its possibilities.
Her success is indicated by the fact
that Minnewawa is valued at over five
times the original investment. During
the busiest season there are over 400
people at work on the ranch and in the
cannery. Since discovering that by
personal oversight of the packing her
grapes brought from 500 to $500 more
per carload than when left to the SUI
pervision of others, Mrs. Sherman
very sagely concluded that woman
can be real helper, even though she
leave the care of the household to
some one else. Mrs. Sherman has not
confined her efforts to raisin growing
alone, but has national reputation as
stock raiser and fruit grower.-Pil-

VIII BE No Discrimination.

Absolutely no discrimination will be
made between Mormon or non-Mor-

of the promoters is that the handsome
reward offered will induce the literary
and musical people of the state to pro-
duce an anthem touching the history.
characteristics, resources or hopes OF
Utah that will be distinctly state
song. The committee that will sift
the manuscripts will be announced in
few days. and will be composed OF
the best known and most reputable
literary and musical people in the
state.
It will be a great honor to be known
as the author of the words or the com.
poser of the music for the state an.
them of Utah, and in addition to this
the six successful competitors will re.
ceive for their work sums in excess Of
the amounts paid by the highest class
magazines TO the best writer's and
composers in the country. In Offering
the large sum as an inducement to the
writer's and composers of the state the

Some of the best compositions in the
history of music and literature are the
work of unknown writers and must

as likely TO be poor and unknown as
rich and noted.

1t is sometimes interesting to watch

Every now and then some one will
think there is a splendid opening to

MUST HAVE CHARMED LIVES
A Brood Of Larks Hatehed Out In Nest
on Racetrack.

y bTooo OF LaTks f1atCneu Out IN Nesi
on Raeetrack.
A pair of larks which built their
nest on the racecourse at Keele park.
Staffordshlre. and are raising little
family, have been taken under the spe-
cial protection of the Grand Duke Mi
chiel of Russia. who Is now in resi-.
dence at Keele park, says the London
Express.
When the steeplechase races were
held at Keele park the larks' nest was
discovered on the racecourse near the
winning post.
Despite the races, the large number
OF carriages and the crowds of people
who had passed over the course, the
nest had escaped injury.
Marks OF horses hoofs and carriage
wheels we're found perilously close to
the larks' little home, and In one case
a wheel had evidently just grazed the
outer edge.
The Grand Duke Michael was told
of the strange discovery and went to
inspect the nest. There was another
days racing. but II was thought use
less to have the nest removed, and so
1t was again left to the care OF Provi'
dence.
Again, on Thursday, great crowds
thronged the racecourse. Race horses
and carriages crossed and recrossed
the spot selected by the birds. but
again the nest escaped scathless.
When the nest was examined re-
Gently it was found that three young
larks were Matched out and the par
ent birds were busy feeding the
youngsters
The grand duke was Informed OF
the birds preservation and he at once
issued instructions to the men on the
estate to carefully guard the larks and
their home.
