gone to great trouble and expens,
building sanitary and modern dairies
II should be said in passing that tn,
local deirymen arc In harmony with
tho city health authorities and CO.
| operate choerfully with Thorn for tho
welfare of all concerned.
Tho Cox substitute for the Throcls.
morton bill is much to be preferred
| for II presents q fair and equitable
| solution OF tho problem 1t would
leave the appointment OF city milk in
spcctors In tho hands of the present
authorities and not in those of the
State Dairy and Food Commissioner.
y board of appeal is likewise provided
for, to consist OF the mayor Of the
city or town. the present or a member
of the local board of health and u
dalryman selected by the appealing
dairyman from list of three sub
united by the local duiryman's assoc
citation. This would nuke the settle
ment of the dispute a local matter, and
give both the dairyman and the city
health authorities fairer chance.
The State would be saved great ex-
pense in this way. because the State
Dairy and Food Commissioner would
not have to travel all over the State.
Furthermore, tho Cox bill provides
that pending the appeal the dairyman
appealing shall not sell his milk, and
thereby SO checks source of danger
unchecked in the Throckmorton bill.
Cities with high standards of milk
inspection should be allowed the right
of local self-government in q case like
this. Inspection or interference by the
state is unnecessary and results in a
duplication of work and expense. II
the cities have high standards. let them
alone. Richmond attained the score Of
sac in December. 1911, as against $50
in 1907. The minimum standard Is now
almost as high as the maximum was
in Richmond four years ago The
State soore Is very much lower. Inter
terests Of the city.
The cities OF Virginia have a rlght
to demand the defeat Of the Throck-
morton bill. Inextricably interwoven
with the question OF milk supply is
the question of public health. A high
standard in milk inspection. such is
now obtains, means better health, means
that the sources OF infection in typhoid,
scarlet fever and diphtherla will be
checked IL not entirely destroyed
that the unsanitery milk that costs
thousands OF innocent babies their
lives will be cast out. Human life IS
in issue. and that is the best reason
why this measure should be voted
down every time 1t comes up. Cities
rightly insist that they shall SO regu-
late the milk supply that the least
detriment shall come to their citizens,
and that Is the right which the
bill would impair. If not
deny. There is no demand for the |
Throckmorton bill. but there is an
overwhelming demand that 1t be
killed.

then our duty to make them Herculeans

GAME LAWS NOT TO BE MIsCoN.
STRCED,

= general game protection law is
apt 70 be misconstrued as 4 measure
solely benefiting sportsmen. This
criticism, however, does not hold true
when applied to the bill presented in
the Senate by Mr.. Moncure and by Mr..
rutherford In the House. This
measure provides for the protection
of all bird life. incidentally allowing
legitimate sportsmen to kill the nat
ural increase of certain species known
as game birds. The end sought to be
attained Is not that of providing a
better sport for a small class, but is
that of saving TO the State the In
valuable services of the featherod
tribe. The farmers OF the State are
the beneticiaries under the proposed
law, the effect of which is 20 make
those who kill game birds pay for
the protection of all species. Thus. in
stead Of the farmer bearing the entire
cost of bird protection (for the Cement
Of few sportsmen) as in the past,
the proposed law casts the whole cost
Of protection upon the sportsman for
the benefit OF the farmer.
Examine the proposed hunting IL
cense system. No farmer thereunce.

THE rHnockMonroN MILK Bill

THE THRuCkMoRToN MILK BILL.
I, Is TO be hoped that the House

Will heea the appeal OF the cities OF

10 take the power TO require G pure
milk supply from those cities when
have high standards and TO destroy
very largely the good work Of boards
Of health in the cities which, through
such boards, secure sanitary milk for
their citizens.
The second provision OF this bill
gives the state Dairy and Food Com
missioner the power TO nullify inc
appointment of city dairy inspectors,
which would thus give that otficer alb
eolutc power over such inspectors.
This would give the state Dairy and
