MILK BUSINESS
REv0LUTIONIzED
Only Eight Dairymen in Month
of August
Failed to Come Up to the Legal
Requirements.
FORTY-TWO MEET THE TESTS
Publication of Monthly Reports
Has Good Effect.
1t Causes Dealers to Put Forth
Greater Efforts.

Eight Topeka milk dealers and
dairymen sold milk during the month
of August showing a bacterial count
in excess of the legal limit of 100000
to the cubic centimeter. Forty-two
of the fifty samples analysed in the
laboratory of the city milk inspector
met the legal requirements.
The efforts of the milk inspector
are causing dairymen to make greater
efforts to produce clean, wholesome
milk. The publication of the monthly
reports of dairy inspections and milk
samples examined is also educating
the public to be more discriminating
as to what dairymen are patronized.
The result is that dairymen who regu-
larly make good showings in the
monthly reports find that they are
able to command higher prices for
supply the demand. Others find that
they are able to reduce the delivery
cost by being able to choose their Gus
toners in close proximity to. one an
other.
In short, milkmen who are making
good records, find they can be quite
autocratic as to prices, and places of
delivery. Housewives are complaining
that good milkmen, and by good
milkmen'' they mean those standing
well in the monthly reports, are hard
to keep, and it is becoming just as
much an offense in Topeka to steal
domestic servant from one household
to another.
Following is the report of the milk
inspection departr ent for the month
of August:

Los Angeles, Cal, Sept. 4.-Charged
with masquerading as a man for
twenty-five years, Prof. Eugene de
Forest So years old, a woman, was
arrested late last night at her home
and later made an extraordinary con-
fession in which she both admitted
and explained the charge. Before
City Mother Alethea Gilbert and De-
tectives Fletcher Felts and Charles
Herne, Professor DeForeSt, who is
well known teacher of dramatic art
with offices in the Blanchard build
ing, told of two marriageS-in one of
which she posed as the wife and in
the other as the husband-and of a
romance which she explained had

lice Snively and the officers who

For five years Professor DeForest

San Francisco and in Los Angeles she
has been regarded as a teacher of I'M
usual ability. None of her students
in Los Angeles even suspected that
their lHSlTuclOI III 6lOcuLlOn was a
woman. The long coat which she
wore, her short gray hair and other
masculine appearances disarmed all
suspicion.
To a well known Christian Science

will come as particular shock as
Prof. DeForest was engaged to marry
