that they would even tender their
friendly offices. This Is because oi

not recognize the Huerta administra-

absolutely prevented mediation be

BRYAN stated today that no reply
note has yet been sent TO Carranza.
On excellent authority. II was learn

HARRINGTON. Del, April "a
Refrigerated milk stations az the
principal towns along the Delaware,

nable farmers 10 keep more COWS
and provide a market for milk, is the
iouhle improvement sought by pro
sressive agriculturists who have been
working for some time in conjunction
with the railroad officials.

Farms within q radius of twenty
miles.
The campaign for the milk stations
Was first begun in an effort 70 have
fho farmers keep more cattle and i'm
prove their land by using barnyard
compost. The erection Of creameries
who located in many Of the towns
was the first step. but II was soon
found that the creameries could sup

handle all the milk sent them.

milk from Harrington was made with
success. With a refrigerating station

MUST CLEAN UP NEXT MONTH
Village Trustees To Appoint Sanitary
Inspector Dump Grounds

Look out for the lady sanitary
inspector.
This may be warning that will
be passed about if the village
council is able to find a lady who
will take the job, for the village
dads" have it doped out that
woman would have it all over a
man when it comes to securing the
cleaning up of back yards. etc.
But the council will probably
expect the sanitary inspector to
collect the dog and poll taxes and
this provision will probably let out
all feminine applicants.
AT any rate the board plans to
appoint sanitary inspector about
the middle OF April and this iuspec-
tor will be expected to see to it
that the town is thoroughly cleaned
up.
In connection with cleaning up
the town the board will have to
make arrangements for a dumping
ground and L. N. Brown has been
appointed committee of one to
look up and get prices on ground
suitable for this purpose. The
board figured that it could buy a
small piece of ground and dig a
pit on it where the refuse could be
burned as it accumulated.
