MILK SCARCE; COWS
ARE NOT DOING DUTY

WOODBURY., July 11.-There is a
decided milk shortage throughout
South Jersey. inc particularly in Glou-
cester and Salem counties, where Inn
mense quantities usually are gathered.
Milkmen of this city cannot get nearly
all they want and are particularly Ju-
dicious in dispensing It, giving families
with babies preference.
The demand at the resorts is not
alone responsible for the shortage.
Cows are not doing their duty; In fact,
there is a shortage OF good cows. ana
the high prices are held responsible.
There is scarcely a dairy farm where
h number of cows Is up to what the
owner would like but few cows are on
the market. Win one is offered for
sale 1t is quicklj snapped III at almost
any price.

Observations by the
 Sagebrush Savant

Dld you over not.ce that fellow who is married and who is alwsys securing around like this:
 "Aw. guess I got as good woman as anybody. but il 'wuszent' married I wouldn't marry the best woman that ever lived"
 That fellow ought to have a barrel stave warmed upon him till he cocld not sit down for a week. Now, if his wife dies, which would he fortunate for her, be will be married again in less than q week. Did you ever notice the woman who lets sickly vail out of her and i: psrpetuslly wh'ning, "Oh, if it wa. mol for the children. l wou'd not live with him another day" What she needs is the hose turned on her till her fool brain grow normal.
 If the lightning should strike he husband, which would be the luckies thing that could happen him, sh would marry some designing cigarett sucker in less than a month and lavis all her husband had made in years o him. and let the children stsTve.
