MILK FROM THE DESERT.

Gel Paso, Texas, has one of the most
interesting milk supplies of any city,"

milk is goats milk, produced by num-

thousand goats. These goats get their
living from the surrounding hot, dry
territory, deficient in grass and only
moderately covered with sagebrush and
cactus. A COW would starve to death.

the treasury, in a formal statement is
sued tonight giving an estimate OF the
federal governments revenues and ex-
penditures up to the end of the fiscal
year beginning next July.
Assuming that congress will continue
in effect the present emergency tax law
and customs duty on sugar, the secre-
tary estimates that SIP, SO6. 1874 in addl-
tional revenue will be needed for the ex-
penditures for 1917 including 500, 800. 900
for new measures for national defense.
This amount" says the statement,
''can easily be raised by intern taxa
ton without appreciable burdens upon
the American people"
Mr.. McAdoo suggested a reduction in
the income tax law on single persons
from $4,000 to $4,000 and on married per-
sons from $4,000 to $4,000; changes in the
sur-tax imposed on incomes above GER

automobiles, other internal combustion
engines, and various other things.

Aroostook Potatoes.

Potatoes come very slowly, the buyers,
as for some time past, not being anxious
to buy, and the farmers not being willing
to sell. The price remains at from 81 60

the general expectation is that it will 90

that the rise may not take place until
after the holiday season is over. Quite
a good many of the buyers are loaded nm
rather heavily at from $500 to $2.25, so
that they have not made much money! on
the deal, and now feel somewhat handi-
capped. The high price some weeks ago
rather spoiled the farmers for taking
less, although they admit that 81. 80 or
more is mighty good price-one that
compares well with price of 80 cents or
SO cents, such as they sometimes have to
endure. Fort Fairfield Review. Nov.

''These figures seemed remarkable to
me-" be says. They reveal the fact
that the drinkers were the better hitters
at the start, that they declined steadily
in batting, while the non-drinkers not
only held their pace but improved little.
The figures show the drinkers averages
varied largely each year, while the nom
drinkers batted within few points each
season of what they had done the pre-
ceding year. The figures showed the
drinkers were the more reliable men,
and to my surprise found that the eight
non-drinkers played in eight and frac-
ton more games per season than the
eight zen drinkers did,

JOHN BAKLEYCORN KNOCKS OUT
BASEBALL STARS.

In the current issue of Farm and Fire
side are some interesting figures showing
the ravages worked by alcohol among
the star players of big baseball leagues.
These figut es have been gathered by
Hugh S. Fullerton. Mr., Fullerton pur-
posely eliminated the hard drinkers from
his experiments; he confined himself to
the bottle of beer" man who thinks
that what he takes cannot possibly hurt
him.
He kept tab of the records and batting
averages of thirty-two moderate drinkers
and twenty-four players who did not
drink. After eleven years only two of
the original thirty-two drinking players
are on the diamond while eight of the
twenty-four non-drinkers are still play
ing. Furthermore only five of the
drinkers are prosperous as opposed to
fourteen of the on-drinkers. Six of the
beer contingent are down and out, eight
are dead and one is missing-but only
three of the non-drinkers are either dead
or ruined. The non-drinkers have won
more games and pitched more games,
stolen more bases and kept up better
batting average, although at the begin
ming of the eleven years the drinkers
surpassed them. The following table of
batting averages is given by Mr.. Fuller
