Just throw a few thousand Of gal
Ions OF buttermilk on that notion store.
Bill"
These and other things like them
were heard at a fire which, but for the
existence OF unlimited buttermilk In
accessible places, would have utterly
destroyed the blooming little town Of
Patch Grove, near this place.
The Habberton creamery was in pro-
cess of going up in flames and the 500
inhabitants of Patch Grove soon real
ICED that it was buttermilk or nothing
for the whole town OF them. They
therefore lay to with a will and for a
good three hours buttermilk was so
common that the hogs wouldn't drink
it, A solid wall Of buttermilk saved
the biggest house in town from taking
fire and the town with It.
Prominent citizens have organized a
movement to erect a monument to but
termilk in the main street.

Mines SET TO
GUARD new YORK
FEAT rs ACCOMPLISHED AFTER
YEARS OF FUTILE EN-
DEAvOR.

Washington, Dec. 11.-After years
Of fruitless endeavor, submarine mines
have been planted in the deep waters
Of the race" at the Eastern entrance
to Long Island sound, and New York
city Is today better fortified against
attack by sea than ever before. An
nouncement OF the solution or this diff
ficult problem was made today by
Cen. Arthur Murray, chief Of the coast
artillery, in his annual report to the
secretary OF war.
Until recent experiments were made
Ii was believed by army and navy Of
aicers that mines could not be planted
IN water deeper than 100 to rs feet.
8t was found, however, by officers OF
che coast artillery that Il was quite as
easy to plant the mines in deep water
as in shallow. II heavy enough anchors
were obtainable. So, with anchors
weighing 1,E0O pounds. mines were
planted In tbs race at depth OF
f26, then 400 and finally 500 feet. The
complete submarine equipment for the
race" Is now being prepared and viii
be in place soon.
