CERTIFIED MILK POPULAR.
Department of Agriculture Shows
Great Increase in Production

Certificate milk is growing in favor,
according to the Department of Agri-
culture which announced today that the
daily production of 1876 dairies in the
United States now is nearly 5000 gal
lops. an increase of nearly 30s per cent
in five years. The department points out.
however, that this amount is only about
one-half of one per cent of the total milk
supply OF the country.
The department. experts lay emphasis
on the fact that expensive apparatus is
not 50 necessary to the production OF
certified and absolutely clean milk as is
= careful and unremitting attention to
sanitary details In a bulletin which the
department has Just issued the proper
methods for turning out certified milk

CONTRACTORS ASSUME
LARGE UNDERTAKING
Will Move Hotel Building of Re-
inforced Concrete Upon
New Foundation.

Supplementing what appeared in the
July issue of the Building Age rela tive
to the moving of the Commercial High
School building in San Francisco. the
same magazine this month states that
Nichols & Handley, the same contractors,
have taken the contract for moving a
four-story reinforced concrete hotel with
stores on the ground floor and which
covers an area fifty by eighty-f1ve feet.
The estimated weight of the entire build
ing is $500 tons and it is intended to
move the three upper floors weighing
about 1850 tons. These upper floors will
be moved to the adjoining lot while a
new foundation is placed. The ground
story will be rebuilt and then the SUI
perstructure will be replaced upon it.
The building was erected about two
years after the great fire and was con-
sidered one of the best concrete struc-
lures south of Market street. The own
err. however. employed contractor who
was his own architect and. the founda-
tons being laid only a few feet below
the street level with light footings. the
structure soon began to settle on the
west side the walls finally leaning about
two feet out of plumb at the top. Eff
forts were made to shore up the struc-
ture and place piers under ii, but the
piers also settled and 1t became impos-
sible to rent the stores. Investigation
showed that the subsoil under nearly
half the building was the bed of an old
slough consisting of blue mud and only
the excellent quality of the concrete had
prevented the building from collapsing
1t was decided to give up the ground floor
cutting off the building at the second
story When the upper part was re-
moved 142 piles were driven into the
mud Upon these q solid foundation will
be laid and walls erected to the second
story, after which the upper part will be
set back on its old location.

attraction to the winter pleasures OF the
National Capital.
In recent years the place of the late
lamented Count CaSSini has been taken
by the French ambassador, M. Jusse-
rand. who has most generously and un-
ceasingly given support and encourage
ment to the sport. One of the classic
fencing events in this country is the an
nual competition for the JuSSerand tro-
phy-a large and handsome bronze figure
of a fighting Gaul-a desire for the
permanent possession Of which has. dur
ing the past two years. brought to Wash
ington the picked representatives of the
clubs of Boston, New York and Philadel-
phia.
Few Fencers in Military.
1t is considered a strange thing that so
few of the prominent fencers of Wash
ington have been army and navy officers.
President Roosevelt and Maj. Gen. Leon
ard Wood used to engage in many a
friendly bout with the saber in the
White House, under the instruction of
NJ Francois Darrieulat, the French
maitre d'armes, who has been the lead
ing fencing instructor Of Washington for
twenty years. 1t is considered singular
that the example of President Roosevelt
and Gen. Wood has not stimulated
greater interest among the younger off,
GERS of the army and navy. as they are
the only class Of society to which swords
manship presents a really unitarian
aspect. That is particularly true of the
army officers, and more especially of the
cavalry, in which arm 1t is now quite
the vogue to magnify the probability OF
sharp action and the necessity of ca
pacity to handle the sword.
During the winter many interesting
competitions will be held with outside
clubs Always there has been great
deal of friendly competition between the
Washington Club and the Naval Acad-
envy teams.
The formal opening of the new club
rooms at 100 Connecticut avenue, Oc-
tober l, will present to the National
Capital the most perfectly balanced
sale d'armes in this country. The spa
cious hall, with it's carefully considered
arrangement of both natural and artificial
lighting, will give to the fencer that
freedom of action and freedom from un-
equal light and shadow so necessary to
the favorable pursuit of this most finish
ed of games-and will. at the same time,
afford ample sitting room to the select
audiences which will from time to time
attend the more public events.

Few Forest Fires Last Year.

According to the Department OF Agri-
culture the losses by fire in the national
forests for the calendar year 1912 were
the lowest of recent years; less than one
acre to every thousand of timbered lands
were burned over and the total damage
is estimated at $7529O. or less than 81 to
every 1900 acres Of area. This good
record is attributed, first, to favorable
weather conditions in most localities
and, second, to the increased efnciency OF
the fire-fighting organization.
