THE SkJM.Milk AGE,

The cattle scarcity affects some
thing else besides the price and con-
sumption Of beef. 1t threatens the
supply and use of milk. In Boston.
where there was an appreciable milk
scarcity during the year 1918, the
question has been raised by the state
milk inspector whether II will not be-
come necessary 10 sell skim.milk in
the market, as an ordinary source OF
supply, as well as milk containing the
cream. AS matters are now, the skim
med milk. which is the bulk OF the
product, and the most valuable part
of It as the food content is concerned,
Is fed mostly to calves and hogs. or
even thrown away. II is not regard
ed as possessing much value after
the cream has been separated from
It Such an organization OF the mar
keting and use OF milk as would per
NIT OF the furnishing OF skinned
milk TO consumers, by the daily
means through which they receive
their full milk. would add a great
deal to the food supply of the cities.
Little by little We are reaching the
conditions OF Europe so far as the
utilization Of food products is con.
cerned. Europe throws nothing away.
We have been in the habit of throw.
ing about half OF everything away.
Europe burns its sawdust and its coal
dust in briquettes; We burn ours in
waste heaps. Europe uses the last
ounce of its skim-milk: We may have

skinned of the cream OF things. We
have arrived at the skim-milk epoch.

Butte Quiet

Butte, Mont. June 15.-Quiet prevailed in Butte today after the rioting by seced- CTS from the Western Federation of Miners had spent itself, but Governor Samuel V. Stewart today asked Wash ington as to the possibility of obtaining federal troops in case of further dis order.
 The violence of the revolting miners ceased last night, when the coming of the governor wac reported The chief ex- ecutive today said that he found no dis order. and would not call for state troops under present conditions. Many of the miners who had seeded from the local miners union because of excessive ,spe- cial assessments and the requirements that they must show union cards on going to work, today returned to the mines. They were not compelled to display their cards.
 Governor Stewart tonight said
 "In my opinion the situation is much better and I doubt whether there will be any necessity for outside interference from any source.
 No call has been made for federal troops. There has been an interchange of communications with Washington relative to the possibility of securing federal troops in case a contingency should arise'

No Fighting in City

Torreon, June 15.-No fighting in the city proper is anticipated by constitu- tionalist officers here, who were pre- pairing today to move with Villas forces. As yet the assault of Natera' s troops has proven unsuccessful.
 Due to the fact that the city is To- cated in basin either force would find itself in a predicament should fighting take place in the city itself without possession having been gained of the three mountains and other com manding elevations about the town.
 With their retreat cut off the feder- als may decide to defend to the utmost every position taken by them and since they have a large number of machine guns, constitutionalist officers believe that the fighting around Zacatecas may become the bloodiest that the revolution has seen thus far. Those familiar with the topography of the positions entrenched say that only the best ar tillery work can prevent the loss of thousands by attacking troops.
 Many believe General Villa will at- tack the positions at night when ma chine guns are of little value.
 General Natera has not been able to make much progress in the investment of the city, and for this reason the main attack is not likely to take place until General Villa advances on the city with his own division.

President Wilson told great crowd assembled today before the state, war and navy building to celebrate flag day that, flying over reunited na- tion, this banner for the future was meant to stand for the just use of un- disputed national power"
 our spirits as well as our states are now reunited" said the President, and nobody questions our ability to push fordward our economic affairs upon lines of unparalleled successes and prosperity.
 This flag for the future Is meant to stand for the just use of our un- disputed national power No nation is ever going to doubt our power to as- sert its rights; and we should lay it to heart that no nation shall eyer henceforth doubt our power to put it to the highest uses to which a great emblem of justice and government can be put.
 Tt is henceforth to stand for self possession, for dignity, for the asser- ton of the right of one nation to serve The other nations of the world-an emblem that will not condescend to be used for purposes of aggression and self-ag aggrandizement
 "So 1t seems to me that 1t is my privilege and right as the temporary representative of a great nation that does what 1t pleases with its own ar- fairs to say that we please to do jus tice and assert the rights of mankind wherever this flag Is unfurled.''

Niagara Falls June 15.-The three South American mediators formally ad- vised General Carranza by telegraph tonight that they would not admit his representatives to the conference here unless an armistice were declared and internal as well international phases of the Mexican problem were in cluded in the poceedings.
 This action followed the receipt of a note from Rafael Zubaran, special rep resentative of Carranza at Washington, announcing the appointement of Fer nando Iglesias Caftieron, Luis Carrera and Jose Vasconcelos as constitutional delegates to the mediation conference at which, according to the view of the constitutionalist chief, "it is sought to settle the international conflict which has arisen between the United States and the Mexican republic.'

Rebels Defeated

Fl Paso, Tex, June 15-News of consti- | tutionalist reverses at Zacatecas was re-
 eeived here today from the south, as well as by press dispatches from Mexico City. Reports from Torreon failed to tell of General Villas departure to help Natera, although it was said here that Villa S
 men were moving toward Zacatecas as rapidly as the condition of the railroad would permit.
 In an effort to take the city Gen. Pan filo Natera's troops attacked the federal entrenchments on El Grille and Veta Grande mountains and were repulsed with
 heavy losses. Four attacks were made
 and each time the constitutionalists had
 to retire in a heavy machine gun fire. No information as to the number of
 dead and wounded on the constitutional list side was given out, but the losses were | unusually heavy.
 The consttutionalist forces employed in the assault numbered about 1000 out of
 total of 12,o00 forming the command of
 General Natera. It has been learned that the force of Gen Medina Barron. the fed eral commander of the Zacatecas garri- son, is at least 5000 strong.
 An attack made on Friday on La Bufa also was unsuccessful, 1t was reported.
 and later in the day General Natera was
 obliged to telegraph to General Carranza for endorsements. So critical was the
 situation that General Carranza at once ordered south a number of brigades of General Villas division, step which on Saturday led to the holding of a long conference at Torreon between General Villa and the various brigade com manders of the division of the north
 As soon as possible General Villa will ktake his troops to Zacatecas and every ef- fort will be made not only to take the place, but also cut off the retreat of the federals. The constitutionalist force
 available for this purpose will number no less than 32,000 men, according to official estimates.
 Apart from cutting the railroad south of Zacatecas and thus making the retreat If the federals a difficult undertaking, General Natera was said to have made little headway against the troops of Gen. eral Barron.
