At the time The price OF milk was
raised by the exchange the neces-
Eity for that action, II II ever eE,
isted az all, had passed away From
October I on practically no Ice ie

5000 per month 20 the larger milk
dealers
Al the time the raise went into
effect the milk dealers OF Seattle
we're paying the farmers about 4
cents per quart for average milk.
The price has not raised any since.
Counting transportation charges,
the milk Was costing the dealers
about liz cents per gallon when
the raise went into effect The
same milk can be obtained az the
same price today.
As a matter of fact. however,
some OF the dairymen are supplying
little better quality OF milk. Inc
stead OF buying all their milk AZ
10 cents per gallon. they are buying
part AZ Is cents and part AZ 20 10
rs cents. mixing the two grades
and thus producing a little better
milk.
Accordingly their milk IL now
costing them about IS cents per
gallon delivered in Seattle.
Profits Are Large.
Even figuring that the milk costs
the dealers 20 cents per gallon. or
8 cents per quart. they are handling
IL on a ice per cent margin when
selling 20 the small consumer by
the quart and on a $50 per cent
margin when selling by the pint.
Even in his Wholesale deals. selling

is doing business on a margin %

While the cost Of delivery In Sc

NSOpyElSuISu, Dy XII
A far seeing, provident business
man will not pursue policy which
Is subversive of his best interests.
He will not destroy his own house,
neither will he jeopardize his bust
ness. He will observe the golden
rule, not only in theory, but in prac-
tice, and its practical observation was
never more needed than at the pres
ent time. Men dream about the
Golden Age" and yet, ofttimes pur-
sue a policy which renders the dawn
of that age an impossibility.
Within the horizon of every coun-
try resident there exists an evil which
is yearly assuming greater proper
tions. We refer to the mail order
business which last year amounted
in money sent to Chicago alone to
5000, 100000. Two hundred million
dollars diverted from it's legitimate
channel. Two hundred million dol
lars sent out to enrich those who
were not needy, while those at home
sorely in need of support were passed
by co1dly; the local trade was i'm
poverished just to that extent. This
golden trade reviving stream should
have remained within it's own chan
mel, thus enriching it's own soil, and
causing desert places to bloom and
blossom.
Many unemployed would have been
engaged at living wages, households

Fortunate Men of Prominence.

Admirers of great, rich or famous
people often bestow their wealth upon
the objects of their regard. The Ger
man emperor heads the list of lucky
ones so favored. His receipts in
money and real estate during the last
ten years would, it is said, make a
millionaire envious. Following prece-
dent, Hamburg merchant prince left
more than s1,000,000 to the emperor s
chancellor, whom Kaiser William i'm
mediately created Prince" Bue1ow.
William Jennings Bryan recently
came by wealth in the same way. In
England Lord AIlerton has received
100000 from an admirer of his public
career and DR.. Jameson inherits a sum
one-f1fth larger under the will of Mr..
Belt. Queen Victoria was very for
tunate in her admirers, of whom the
wealthiest was Nield, who bequeathed
to her the sum of s1,250,000.
