Cheapest and Best.
Do the people of Hays want sanitary
milk? Recently state food inspector
took from various sources in Hays sam
pies of milk for laboratory tests and we
still have every right to claim the
cleanest and richest market milk in the
city.
We are glad to express our appreci-
alton of the class of customers that re-
main with US. When rigid inspection is
enforced and the people of Hays become
more acquainted with the Importance of
milk as food and the dangers of con-
taminated milk they win consider quail
ity as well as price in buying this food
and know that dirty, impure milk is
dear as a gift.
Scientific tests are the only reliable
tests of milk DIR. Heath, city milk in
spector of Buffalo, N. Y. says: 81
have seen milk offered for sale that on
examination showed more contamin-
alton than there was in an equal amount
of sewer water, yet this milk was placed
in bottles exactly similar to those used
for comparatively pure milk
There is difference between doing a
thing and pretending to do it. Not
seven but all of our cows passed tu-
bercular test We do not guarantee
any number of inches of cream in the
neck of the milk bottle, but every COW
has been tested for butter-fat and the
average for the herd is higher than any
u 4 =
Considering food value we are selling
the cheapest milk in Hays as well as the
most sanitary. We solicit only such
trade as we can supply from our own
cows and have been selling all we have
had; but with some cows freshening we
can now add few more customers to
our list.

FIELD SPORTS

When you keep boy interested in
football, baseball, tennis, and the like,
you lessen the chances that he will get
interested in things not so good for
him.
The Youth Companion, since its en-
largement, gives generous space to this
matter of athletic training, and it gets
the best coaches in the country to write
for it.
How to practice to become frst-rate
pitcher, how to train for race, how
to learn the newest strokes in swim
ming-these and hundred other topics
of the greatest interest to boys-to
girls, too, for that matter-are touched
upon in this important department of
The Companion.
And this is only a small part of the
service which the Companion renders
in any home which it enters. 1t has
points of contact with hundred inter
ests.
If you do not know the Companion as
it is to-day, let US send you one or two
current issues free, that you may thor
oughly test the papers quality. We
will send also the Forecast for 1915.
Every new subscriber who sends 81. 90
for the fifty-two weekly issue of 1915
will receive free all the issues of the
paper for the remaining weeks of 1914;
also the Companion Home Calender for
1915.

The present whereabouts of Jacob
Miller. the aged father of Mrs C. L.
Girard. who disappeared from the Gi-
rard home in the Orchard mesa dis
trict over a week ago. are as much a
mystery as they were when Independ-
ent reported the affair last week,
even though the search for him was
continued almost increasingly for sew
eral days thereafter. 1t was reported
on Wednesday that Miller had been
seen at Hotchkiss during the present
week. but investigation shows this
report to be unfounded. Mrs. Girard
has written to her sister and other
relatives in the East to see if any in
formation can be gathered, and she
is expecting a reply inside the next
few days. 1t is thought he may have
boarded a train entirely unbeknown
to persons here and is now at the
home of a relative.
