WARNING TO PARENTS.

It is risky to feed raw milk and
cream t. children or lnvalids un-
less you are sure that at the farm
which produces the milk the ut
most cleanliness Is observed at all
times, particularly during milk
ing: that the employees are thor
oughly healthy and cleanly per-
sons, that the cows are free from
diseases. that the water used for
rinsing is OF undoubted purity. and
that the milk is quickly cooled and
kept cold and covered until de-
iivered to you.
Raw milk often produces Tuber-
culosis. Scarlet Never. also Ty-
photd and otheI intestinal dis
cases.
We can guard against infection
BY properly pasteurizing milk or
by home pasteurization.
Properly pasteurizing milk (and
cream) by keeping it at 40 deg. r.
for twenty to thirty minutes does
not affect its nutritlve value nor
its digestibiIity.
The best system is to pa.teur-
ize the milk after 1t has been
bottled.
You can home pasteurize raw
milk by heating it to near boiling,
then cool. and keep cold and cov-
cred until used.
Most Indigestion IN babies Is
caused by milk too rich in cream.

In the seventeenth round Wolgast sent

Congress May Investigate
CObb-Detroit CONTROVERSY!

Washington, April 19.-'rhe controversy
between 'Ty" Cobb and the Detroit
American Leage Baseball club manage
ment over the signing of Cobb's contract
for this season may result in an investi-
cation by Congress to ascertain whether
the system of players contracts of the
ba aseball leagues violate the Sherman anti
trust law or the law against peonage.
Representative Hardwick of Georgia,
representing the district in which Cobb
resides, stated tonight he was working
on a resolution for such an investigation
and would introduce it in the House
next week.
Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia, who
declares ''Ty'' Cobb is one of the south's
nost prominent citizens, telegraphed to
Cobb in Georgia today, asking him to
forward to Washington copy of his con-
tract and information regarding the con-
dtions under which the players sign. The
senator said he wished to form an opinion
as to the validity of the contract and
to ascertain whether it was true that
players are forced to accept salaries and
terms or be forever prevented from play
ing.
What understand exists cannot exist

The protest of Frank is based on what

turned over to Mobile by New York. These
men, he declares, are still the property
of New York in that no official transfer
is alleged to haves occurred.
The point is entirely. technical, even if
it should be proved that the reasoning

Detroit, April 19.-Tyrus Cobb will be
in Detroit early next week to talk busi-
ness with President Navin of the De-
tioit American League club. This was
the prediction made tonight by mutual
friends of the champion batsman and
the baseball magnate. who, for several
days have been trying hard to heal the
breach of friendship, known to be exist
ing between the two men. Mr.. Navin
declined to discuss the matter tonight
but it was learned on excellent authority
that Cobb will come here well know
ing what salary he can get for playing
ball this season. The feeling exists in
inner baseball circles here that Cobb
who is now under suspension for refusing
to report to the Detroit club as result
of his salary dispute, will not have to
wait for reinstatement after he and Mr.
Navin come to an agreement.

senatorial situation, in view of the

cussed from every angle at the Cap

vantageous position to work out a
policy of real fiscal reform should
II so desire.
Although the Attorney Generals

the effect of the constitutional
amendment providing for popular
