MORGAN TALKS .... :. bIG BUSINESS
 WITH WILSON
Discusses Trust Problem, Railroad Situation and
 New Haven Affair.

Washington, July 2.-President Will son and J. P. Morgan of New York, head of the big banking house of J. P. Morgan & company, held a lengthy conference at the white house today.
 Mir. Morgan called on the president to discuss the extension of American banks in South America, the trust problem, the railroad situation and principally, the governments investi- gation into the affairs of the New Haven system.
 Experts of the interestate commerce commission are now examining the books of MT. Morgan's firm to find out exactly what part it played in the spectacular financial operations of the New Haven company. MT. Morgan and all other persons concerned on the subject have been in doubt as to the administration attitude in the in- vestigation, in view of the conflict that has arisen between Solicitor Folk of the interstate commerce commits sion and Attorney General Mickey holds. Solicitor Folk is pressing the New Haven crowd very hard.
 MT. Morgan's face was wreathed in smiles when he emerged from the presidents office.
 Cordial Conversation.
 T had a most cordial visit" he ad- mitted, as he jumped into waiting taxicab outside.
 The subject of the extension of the business of the American banks in South America was discussed at some length. So, also was the railroad sit uation. It is understood MT. Morgan expressed the hope that the railroads would not be too greatly restricted in their expenditures. particularly in ad- vertising and other activities intended to build up business.
 After the Morgan visit it developed that the president intends. to make himself accessible to business men of the country. It was explained that the president had avoided seeing rep resentatives of the business interests of the country because of other de- mands on his tim and because he was working on a definite program of leg islation, and did not want to subject himself to the influence of big busi- ness.
 Having completed his legislative program, or reached the point where he believes he can see it's completion, the presidnt fels free to meet mon of big and little business to talk over the affairs of the country.

Difficult Time Experienced Yesterday in Maintaining
 Quorum in Senate.
TRADE COMMISSION
 BILL IS UNDER FIRE
Senator NewlandS Fails in Attempt to Obtain Agreement as to Time for Vote on Measure, and Discussion
 Will Be Resumed Today.

Washington, July 2.-The agreement to stand on the job and complete trust Legislation as speedily as possible was followed today by one roll call after another in an attempt to maintain a quorum and give the pending trade commission bill consideration. Unless there is better team work on the part of the Democratic leaders, trust legis- lation will still be under discussion when the snow flies.
 Senator Cummins occupied the floor in a scholary discussion of the pend ing measure, and advocated certain amendments he believes will improve it. He frequently was interrupted by demands for quorum and each time the ergeant-at-arms was required to send for absentees and before the business of the body could proceed.
 "The flippant and contemptuous manner in which the senate is dealing with matters of vital importance to the industries of the country, in the faint hope that the twilight zone of legislation will be illuminated, is nothing short of farcical," said Sena- tor Brandegee of Connecticut in at tacking the attempted railroad tactics of the leaders to jam the bill through with only corporals guard on tl.e floor.'
 Mir. Brandegee protested against the committe "ddmping" any more half baked legislation of this character" upon the senate during the heated term, and then attempting to enact it into law without proper consideration or even respectful attention
 Late in the afternoon Senator New lands. in charge of the trade commis- sion bill, attempted to get an agree rent for the time for a vote, but failed. He then gave notice that de- bate on the bill would be resumed to- MOTION and beginning Monday he would ask the senate to hold night sessions in an effort to get the meas ure out of the way of other trust bills that will be ready by that time.

have in mind is not to compel the peo>

to rush blindly ahead with naval en-
largement before we have found out
what are the true lines of naval pol
icy? There is no time-emergency
thrust upon us. If anything at all Is
clear about the European war, 1t is
that all the participants, victor or con-
Quered, will come out of it PROSTATE,

IN LIGHTER VEIN

A dog sat out in the midnight chill and
howled at the beaming moon; his
knowledge of music was really nil
and his voice was out of tune.
And he howled and howled as the
hours went by, while lodging the
bricks we threw, till the moon went
down in the western sky, and his
voice was split in two.
And there wasn't a thing at which to
howl over which a pup could weep,
and the noise Of the dog was wrong
and foul, for the folks were wild for
sleep.
There are plenty of men like that
blamed fool hound, who yell when
there's nothing wrong; disturbing
our land with senseless sound-the

vent fraud, it is not the most import
ant. The most important is to get
milk that has been produced by
healthy cows, fed IN proper feeds, and
under sanitary conditions; and milk
that has been properly handled from
the time it left the COW until it reaches
the consumer.
All cows producing milk for direct
consumption should be guaranteed
healthy or free from diseases of any
kind. These cows should be fed on
fresh and well cured feeds; feeds that
do not faint the milk. These cows
should be kept in a barn that is clean.
The floors and cutters should be Of
concrete, so they can be cleaned and
scrubbed out. The walls and ceiling
should be tight and smooth. No clean
ing Of the barn and feeding Of hay
should be permitted during milking
hours. The barn should be provided
with an automatic ventilating system,
81 lhtt, Tic SoWo Soh nave iiOSh "h'
and so that the barn is not steamy and
stuffy.
From the time that the milk Is
drawn until it reaches the consumer 1t
should be cooled to as low a tempera-
ture as possible. Even with the best
of care some germs or bacteria will
get into the milk. II the milk is cool
ed and kept cool, these bacteria do not
multiply. The great cause of so much
poor milk being used for direct con-
sumption is the low price paid for
milk. No man is going to invest a lot
of money in COWS, in sanitary barns, in
cooling plants. In steam, and hot water
facilities for cleaning purposes, in bot
ties, teams and delivery wagons. I'M
less he Is reasonably sure that he can
make a little profit.
Considering the cost of other COM
mon foods, milk is easily worth 15c
per quart. If such a price were paid
it would not be long until there would
be a good grade Of milk supplied In
every instance. There probably would
also be some who would continue to
produce it; but it is safer to pay a
little more per quart for the milk, and
then be sure 1t is of a good quality and
healthful.

MILK Is A CHEAP FOOD

1t is not an unusual thing to see arti-
cles in various journals and dailies
with headlines featuring high prices of
milk. Very little is said about quality;
that is, quality from a sanitary stand
point.
One quart of milk contains about
the same food value as does n pound
of meat. One quart of milk also con
tains about the same food value as
does 8k eggs. One pound of meat
sells for at least 15c, and 81 eggs sell
for about lac. One quart of milk
usually sells for about &c. 1t will thus
be seer hat milk is a cheap food, and
it Is a good food. There is no refuse
in milk and practically all of 1t is di-
gestible. Milk is a balanced ration, so
it has several good qualities, in addi-
ton to being cheap.
Once a usewife stated that 1--WE
must buy milk for the baby, but we
cannot afford to buy it for the whole

feeling existing.

WHAT PREPAREDNESS MEANS

These new found a~gitators for a
great military force ought to be told
by all who wish to see clear on this
subject, that they are simply playing
with the thing. They talk about TAX.

strongest European power, but the
steps they propose are ridiculously in
adequate. A few more battleships,
they say, a couple of hundred thous-

and so on. But all this is merely squirt
ing rose water on a big fire, If all
that they allege is true. Be frank
about it, messieurs the militarists. Go
the whole figure. Put all your cards

nonsense of the tenth-of-the.way meas

men. We shall have to enact compul-
sorry military service. Upon the navy
we shall need to spend many fold what
we do now. The cost of our entire
military establishment will be five or
six times greater than at present. The
income tax will be doubled or quad
rupled, and additional forms of taxa
