hands of other dealers some are dumped into the ash barrel by per sons ignorant of their value while others are lost.
 Million and Half Bottle Thrown Away.
 Tn some instances, milk bottle ex- changes have been established; these
 are either owned and operated by the
 milk dealers or by an independent
 company. Establishm ents of the diff
 Iefent dealers are visited regularly
 and all stray bottles brought to the
 exchange Headquarters, where they are washed, sterilized and assorted
 The price paid by the dealer to the exchange varies from IA to 1-2 a cent. The object is simply to aid the dealers in recovering their bottles, and they can we'll afford to pay the
 small price asked by the exchange for this service. It does not, however do away altogether with the large loss of bottles incident to the milk busin ess. Junk dealers and employees on city garbage and refuse dumps very often return large numbers of bottles to
 at7,l tn9i nllkmen; la' in fact, in one city, the
 milk bottle exchange recovered, in
 three years, about 1,50O,0OO bottles from the refuse dumps.
 Keep the Milk Cold.
 The city consumer of nn1If can greatly aid the dealer by cleaning and returning promptly every bottle re- cefved The bottle should be wash ed in clear, warm water, then in very hot water, and stood wrong side up in a clean place to dry. This, done by the housewife is particularly a saving when the dealer or dairynnan operates only small plant and does not have the outfit for rapid cleaning. When milk is left in bottles to get sour or
 to putrefy, it adds to the dairyrnan's | cost for cleaning them and the same 1 is true when little milk is allowed l to dry in the bottle, especially in the l angle around the bottom
 mother way in which the consumer can cooperate is by quickly removing 1 the milk from the doorstep or porch l where the heat from the sun is likely 1 soon to affect 1t. The farmer and | the dealer, if they have done their part in keeping the milk cold, can not 1 be held responsible if the consum CT 1 fails, Immediately upon receipt of the 1 milk, to put it into the refrigerator. A few hours exposure to the sum m CT heat soon brings the temperature up to above 50 degrees F., where the bacterial content increases rapidly. l The departments experts advise keeping the milk, as much as it is practicable, in the original receptacle in which it is received, and at tenn perature of between 40 and 50 de-
 grees F., thus aiding in keeping down | the great summer waste caused by | the souring of milk before it can be used.

Ocean Temperatures.

The steamer Albatross, which 1s-used by oceanographers, makes 8EeeOccis of deep sea temperatures These tenn perature observations prove that the ocean has a far mores limited range or heat and cold than the land, its maxi mum surface temperature being about S5 degrees F., and its minimum about 29 degrees F. in the most frig1d depths, the ''coId puddies" between Greenland and Norway. The average ocean temperature at depth of six or seven hundred fathoms is S6 degrees E. One of the mysteries of the sea is a regular nightly temperature rise of half a degree at q depth of 100 fathoms. This unaccountable tempera- ture variation has been observed by the Albatross over and over again American Magazine.

which he followed, gathered from his uncaeS own lips:
 Take piece of paper and put down on it everything you can possibly re- quire. Then go over it and see that it contains nothing you can possibly do without.
 Imagine yourself in bed What have you got on? Very well; put it down, together with change. You get up. What do you do? Wash yourself What do you wash yourself with? :? Soap. Put down soap. Go on til you have finished. Then take your clothes Begin at your feet What do you wear on your feet? Boots, shoes, socks. Put them down. Work up till you get to your head. What do you want besides clothes? Put down everything.
 This is the plan the old gentleman al ways pursued. The list made, he would go over it carefully to see that he had forgotten nothing. Then he would go over it again and strike out everything it was possible to dispense with. Then he would lose the list

LAND FIGHTING NOT CLEAN.
The Naval Captain Preferred His Bat

 ties on the Open Sea.
 When Vera Cruz was besieged in the Mexican war Captain Robert E. Lee, afterward the commander in chief of the Confederate army. was ordered to throw up breastworks to defend a bat tery manned by the jackies of man Of-war- Lee put the tars into the trenches and soon had the dirt flying, but the sailors did not labor cheerfuliy. They resented having to shovel dirt, and their captain remonstrated openly with Lee.
 My men," he said, do not want mud banks to hide behind; just let them get out and at the enemy"
 But Lee would not listen. and the tars sweated away at the shoveling. Presently the Mexicans opened fire at the very point thus protected, and the sailors were glad to seek the shelter of the despised dirt. The ships captain felt that he owed Lee an apology and made a handsome one.
 ''WelI, Captain Lee,'' he stammered, ''I reckon you were right I suppose the dirt did save some of my boys from being killed or wounded. but you know we sailors have no use for dirt banks on shipboard. All we want is a clear deck and an open sea. The fact is, cap- tain, I don't like this land fighting, any way. It isn't cIean."-Youth's Compan- ion.

DECISION FAvORS
SOUTHERN RAILWAY
Rates i'm Which North Carolina and
Greensboro Merchants are Inter.
ested Found Not Unreasonable.

Washington, April 19.-Joint through
rates from Cincinnati ana points relat-
ed thereto and from the Pittsburgh,
Buffalo territory to North Carolina On
the first si3 classes of freight as now
applied by the Southern railway and
It's connections, are not unreasonable
nor unjust, according to s lengthy de-
c1sion handed down by rue Interstate
Commerce commission today in the
complaint OF the North Carolina cor
poration commission and the Odell
Hardware company and other Green's
boro merchants as interyeners.
The Odell Hardware company and
other merchants intervened with a
complaint against the rates from east
ern Seaboard territory to North Caro-
lima points. The commission reserves
it's opinion in this case for future con-
sideration.
Commissioner Clark, who wrote the
opinion which the commission allowed
as a result of the Virginia cities con-
troversy which was decided in favor
Of North Carolina last year and con-
cludes that North Carolina at that
time recsived a reduction of rates on
the six classes of freight approximate
ing 20 per cent. s'These reduced
rates. the opinion says, "were pub
lished as proportional rates to North
Carolina. destinations on business orig
mating beyond the Virginia cities.
Joint through rates from st. Lous and
Cincinnati to North Carolina destina-
tions were to be made by adding the
rates from those points of origin to
the Virginia cities the proposed pro-
portional.

therefore, only the issues presented by
