WANT MORE MONEY
FOR THEIR MILK

A threatened advance in the price OF
mix in Philadelphia is likely to have
its effect here. A dispatch from the
quaker City says: Farmers are dis
satisfied with four cents quart for
the supply, and may demand an in
crease to 5 1-2 cents. thus forcing the
dairymen to raise the present retail
price Of 8 cents to 10 cents a quart.
The question was agitated at meet
ing Of the Philadelphia Dairymen and
Milk Dealers Association. AT least 100
farmers and milk dealers from North
Philadelphia and Montgomery county
were present and everyone Joined in
the movement, whose sole object is to
better the condition of the milk dealer
by obtaining higher prices for his pro-
duct.
Heretofore the farmers and dairy
men have been selling their milk to
the trade at cents a quart They de-
clare that they cannot realize enough
profit at this figure. so it was decided at
the initial meeting Of the new milk
dealers combine to charge the trade
3 1-2 cents a quart.
Price of Feed is Higher.
More than 100 farmers and dairymen
paid the entrance fee to join the as
sociation, and several hundred addi-
tional dealers are expected 10 join the
movement before a month is past. The
secretary was directed to send a com-
lmunication to every milk dealer and
idairvman in PHILADELPHIA, Montgom-
cry, Bucks and Berl1s counties explain
ling to them the purpose Of the new as
isociation and inviting them to join the
movement.
/ In increasing the wholesale price Of
milk from 4 TO IL cents the dealers
declare it is not their intention TO rob
or mulct the public, but merely a de-
sire TO make a reasonable profit They
stated that the price of feed has so in
creased within the past few months
Nthat an increase in the price Of milk
is Imperative, or many dealers WIN be
forced from business.

Some idea OF the enormous expendi-

fact that more than $1,000 was spent
on the single item OF shoes and other
footsear in equipping THE Girl and the
Governor" the sparkling new comic
opera In which rollickng jefferson De
Angels appears az the Grand Opera
House on Friday evening. As the
scenes OF the opera are laid in a Span
ish- American colony during the pictur-
esque early sixteenth century when
costumes We're extraordinarily ornate
and costly, Il has been deemed neces-
sary TO the realism OF THE Girl and
the Governor to garb the entire COM
pnny Of eighty performers in the most
beautiful OF ancient sartorial effects.
Thus the great cost Of the footwear,
many Of the boots being made Of the

1t is the most wonderful acrobatic and
scenic performance ever given. All that
ingenuity and skill can devise has been
introduced IN the play by John +.
Byrne. who has no equal In inventlng
pleasing stage mechanism, which gift
with his acrobatic accomplishments has
made himself and play famous. The
scenic effects are very clever and
startling. The piece is virtually new.
and comes as fresh and crisp as a new
bank note. The masculine members OF
the company are as supple as India
rubber. and their tricks and acrobatic
turns could not be performed except
by the most expert gymnasts and lofty
tumblers. The play has dash and go

to by the audience with genuine mirth.
The humoplsms are clear and original
and numerous ludicrous situations are

ton do not make for better morals
and better men and women. To assert
the contrary is to deny history and to
shut ones eyes to the light.
1t is also worse than idle to claim
that the South, with it's high rate Of
illiteracy, is as advanced and as pro-
gressive as other sections Of this
country. It is no disparagement Of
our section to admit its shortcomings.
1t is only by frankly recognizing our
obstacles that we can ultimately
sweep them out of our path.
The Southern Farm Magazine is
arguing in circle when it asserts that
at some remote time "the means Of
education will be so attractive and the
meaning Of education will be so uni
versally understood that the .neces-
sity for compulsion will not exist. /"
In other words, when the whole coun-
try shall have been educated and en-
lightencd the necessity for education
and enlightenment will not exist For
it is only in enlightened conditions
that such things could be possible.
The editor also admits, unawares, that
the necessity for compulsion does ex-
ist now, otherwise it would not cease
to exist later on.
The time will certainly come when
"the meaning of education will be so
universally understood' and SO gen
orally valued that the youth Of the
land will regard the advocates of ILL
teracy as their worst enemies
State.

An Advocate of Illiteracy.

1t is somewhat astonishing to find
periodical like the Southern Farm
Magazine, which ought to be the rep
rcsentative and earnest advocate of
the best interest Of the children on
the farms of the South, standing in
the path of progress and opposing ed
ucation and enlightenment. In it's cur
rent issue, it assails what it calls
compulsory miseducation which is
what it evidently considers all CON-
pulsory education to be. We quote
its summing up, as follows:
When we have gotten (sic) back to
first principles and have come to real
ize what real education is, and when,
in addition, we have literally provid-
ed the means for the furtherance Of
right education, it will be time enough
to talk Of compulsory education. By
that time the means Of education
will be so attractive and the meaning
of education will be so universally
understood that the necessity for COM
pulsory will not exist. In the mean
time, compulsory education is likely
to defeat its very purpose, and, more
over, is certain to weaken the import
ance Of the home as the safe and sane
Influence Of American life.
In another place it says that The
State, in it's steadfast advocacy Of
compulsory education, "seems to have
fallen into the very common error
that literacy is a cure-all; that attend
ance upon schools in a guarantee of
education, when rs a matter Of fact
the crying need is for a reform in
educational methods" ',
This insisting upon a "reform in
educational methods" when we have
no education among the people to re-
form is absurd enough to need no
comment. We are not Of the opinion
that ''literacy is a cure-all;" we do
not think that it will Immediately
change the heart Of man, and make
him virtuons and patriotic and gentle;
but we id think that it ID the fir,nest
and best Foundation Of Virtue. The
country, cannot eradicate crime OF
crush out the criminal instinct BY
compulsory education Of its children,
but it can lay the basis Of sound and
virtuous character by giving to its
children the steadying and the uplift-
ing power Of mental training.
It is worse than idle, in the face Of
the records and Of universal history,
TO affirm that &intelligehes and sauca7

what success really is were thorough
ly enjoyed by the more serious-mind-
ed, and consumed some ten minutes.
He then admonished the boys to per-
form we'll every duty connected
with their daily work, pointing out
wildly its Importance though now
perhaps distasteful, in their career
IN life.
His closing remarks were devoted
to the Importance Of close and careful
observation Of things as one goes
through life. Advising every cadet
to begin to observe now and pick out
future life partner, the Senator
closed a most interesting and instruc-
tive address.
