THE MILK SITUATION.
Commissioner Brigham of Vermont
Writes About the Changed Conditions

Commissioner of Agriculture Brig
ham of Vermont gives the following
facts regarding the milk situation in
the American CultivatOr:
The milk situation in New England
has changed greatly in the last 10
years. In New England there are over
2l0 cities and towns of over 5000 in
habitants, making a total population
of over fifteen million persons. Fifteen
years ago most OF the cities and towns
received their milk supply from the
immediate vicinity. Now throughout
New England the railroads handle 90
cars Of milk day or over half a mil
lion quarts, some Of it coming from q
distance of over 200 miles. Transporta-
ton charges, icing, together with mod
ern demands for pasteurization and
more clearly methods of handling and
in the production of the commodity re-
quired by the state board OF health,
have created a problem in management
and accounts which many farmers and
consumers do not understand.
Fifteen years ago actually no milk
was bottled or pasteurizcd. Now prac-
! tically none of it escapes either pro-
! cess. The ordinary individual does not
believe that it costs the farmer money
to daily remove the piles of manure
that before the present day regulations
| could stand for seasons. or to ice 1T.
or to pasteurize or to provide modern
| equipment of various descriptions. Per
feet pasteurization means heating the
milk. and holding it at a temperature
of 143 degrees for from - minutes TO
half an hour. Under the old methods
it was comparatively easy for the
farmer to keep his COWS and milk them
and then sell the milk with little or
no reward for what it was costing him
for feed.
One hardly needs to he told now,
however, that in these days when the
price is mounting higher and higher
that it Is vital to the farmer to know
=. Just what it costs him to produce his
milk per quart, that he may adjust his
expenses to work profitably and eco,
nomicallv.
This is an age of scientific manage
ment when every item of expense must
be placed where it belongs or the bal
; anee sheet will come out awry.
Among questions to be asked and
answered in order to determine the
price that must be received for mill
. in order to make it profitable to sci
are the following: What does it cos
TO produce milk and what does it COS
; to keep Il cow year! Into this cos
should be figured ten per cent on thu
cost Of the barn and yearly repairs n
I housing expenses (allowin% OF course

Think of a war tax of 121a per cent
on all incomes above 5000. That is
what the Britishers are paying at the
present time, and many of them expect
that before the war is over the tax
viii be SO per cent. c. ". Barron of
the Boston News Bureau, in one of the
brilliant articles written after an ex-
tended trip through Europe, says that
the cheerfJness of the English people
in paying the heavy tax was the great
est marvel that came under his OBJ
servation. Can You imagine some

A HOME REMEDY
FOR DYSPEPSIA

In view Of the well known fact that
probably over ninety per cent Of all
stomach trouble, dyspepsia, indigestion,
fatulencc, etc, is either directly or in
directly due TO acidity, or as it IS com
monty called ''sour stomach, it is ev-
ident that correction and prevention
depends almost entirely on neutraliz-
ing the acid and stopping the fermen-
tation. For this purpose there is moth
ing better than teaspoonful of ordi-
nary bisurated magnesia in a little
water Immediately after eating or
when the pain is felt. This Immediate
ly stops the fermentation and permits
the stomach 10 proceed with its work
under normal conditions. Owing to the
widespread use Of bisurated magnesia
by physicians and in the hospitals and
| for greater convenience in carrying
most druggists now supply it in grain

teaspoonfu1 IF the ordinary powder

The Democratic lawyers of Vermont

pointment to the federal judgeship left
vacant by the death of Judge James L.
Martin of BrattlebOro are Judge Sen
eca Haseltou of Burlington, Thomas
Mooney of Rutland, c. d. Watson Of
st. Adams and Harland Z. Howe Of
st. Johnsbury. Judge Haselton is I'M
doubtedly eliminated from considera-
ton at the start, being within three
years of the mark at which federal
judges retire on a pension. We should
expect some of the active Democratic
politicians of the state to shun Mr..
Watson, after the way he pulled out of
the last senatorial campaign, leaving
the Democrats with a candidate who
had been a lifelong Republican, and
who had the support Of three other
parties or organizations in the contest

Taken BY Surprise.

There are some hospitable creatures
who are greatly disturbed il they can
not meet every demand made on them,
although there are cases when it is
ridiculous TO expect them to be able to
be equal to the occasion. Recently a
barn took fire on large estate, and
the firemen of the village worked hard
to put out the flames. After it was all
over the husband asked the fire fight
ers into the house to partake of coffee
and whatever edibles were on hand.
His wife welcomed the men with
steaming cups of coffee, doughnuts
and pies. Then she said apologetical-
~, "Oh, If l had only known this was
going to happen l would have had {
lot of things baked up!'

Eugene Field was fond of relating
the following story Of James Whit

ness OF the return voyage from Eu-
rope it was proposed to give concert
in the saloon of the ship, an entertain
ment to which all capable of amusing
their fellow passengers should con-
tribute. Mr.. Riley was asked to recite
some of his original poems. and OF
course he cheerfully agreed to do so.
Among the number present at this
midocean entertainment over which
the Rev. Myron Reed presided. were
two Scotchmen. very worthy gentle
men, en- route from the land o cakes
to the land Of biscuits on a tour of
investigation. These twain shared the
enthusiasm with which the auditors
applauded Mr.. Riley's charming reel
tations. They maryeled that so versa.

Harvey's Joke on the President.
You know, of course, that Colonel
Harvey recently visited President Will
son at the White House and that these
two keen wits had a session together.
Wen, official etiquette forbids divul-
gence of presidential conversations,
but friend of friend of prominent
inmate of the White House says that
little bird told him that Mark Twain's
name came up in some connection and
Colonel Harvey remarked casually that
there still live persons who had never
heard of the great humorist The
president found this almost incredible.
"Oh, yes" the colonel continued.
"Only yesterday. here in Washington,
/ met such a one. He was an office
seeker. He declared positively he had
never heard of Mark Twain. / asked
him about Tom Sawyer. No, he had
never heard OF him, either. Nor Huck
Finn? No, never. Nor Puddnhead
Wilson? oh, dear, yes he ejaculat-

Singular Things in PluraIs.

Then one fowl is a goose, but two are

Yet the plural of moose should neyer

You may find lone mouse or a whole
lot of mice;
But the plural of house is houses, not

If the plural of man is always called

Why shouldn't the plural of pan be
called pen?
The cow in the plural may be COWS
or kline,
But a bow, if repeated, is never calico

And the plural of vow is vows, not
vine;
And if | speak of foot, and you
show me your feet,

Then one may be that, and three woul,

We speak of brother and also o
