have dome good job in taking Rp up the suggestions
which The Times offered recently for central CO.
operative distributing center in the city.
The plan promises not only to cut big chunk out
of the dairymen's expenses, thus enabling them to
keep their product up to the highest standard at the
lowest possible price to the consumer, but at the
time to furnish better service to their Tacoma
patrons.
The silly picture of delivery wagon of one con-
chasing the delivery wagon of another concern
or half dozen other concerns, through the city
Streets appears about to fade into the background.
With a little cooperation in cutting down unnec-
essary expense the dealers will find need to COM
plain about losing money.
There can be no excuse for boosting the price Of
milk i'll Tacoma when so much waste energy can be
turned into cash.

ITODAY's BEAUTY HELP

You can keep your hair at its
very best by washing it with a
teaspoonful of canthrox dissolved
In cup of hot water, afterward
rinsing thoroughly with clear wa
ter. One finds that the hair dries
quickly and evenly, is unstreaked,
bright, soft and very fluffy, so
fluffy in fact. that It looks more
abundant than 1t Is, and SO soft
that arranging 1t becomes a pleas
ure. This simple, inexpensive
shampoo cleanses the hair and
scalp thoroughly of all dandruff
and dirt, and leaves clean,
wholesome feeling. All scalp ir-
ritation will disappear, and the
hair will be brighter and glossier
than ever before.

Practical Prescription
For Sour Acid Stomachs

Nine-tenths of all cases of stom-
ach trouble nowadays are caused
by too much acid. In the begin
ming the stomach itself Is not
diseased but II this acid condition
Is allowed to continue, the acid is
very likely to eat Nto the stom-
ach walls and produce stomach
ulcers which may render a radi-
cal surgical operation necessary
even to prolong life. Therefore,
an "acid stomach" IL really a
dangerous condition and should
be treated seriously. The excess
acid or stomach hyperacidity must
be neutralized by bisurated mag
nesia taken In teaspoonful doses
in a fourth of glass Of water
after each meal. Larger quanti-
ties may be used II necessary as
It is absolutely harmless. Be sure
to ask your druggist for the bfsur-
ated magnesia as no other form
of magnesia is as effective as the
bisurated.

Peters, Exploit

One OF the most amazing exploits ever successful
ly carried out by newspaper reporter in the Pa
cifc Northwest, we think it will be agreed, was f.
"A. Peters breaking into the state penitentary and
living there several days a convict.
How the prisoners actually live how they regard
life, whether their punishment tends to reform
them and how it would feel to be one of themthese
are questions that every wide-awake citizens has
puzzled over.
Newspaper reporters more perhaps than the aver
age have thought along these lines, for the simple
reason that their work often brings them into
tact with men about to enter prison and with men
just released from prison.
But that intervening period has remained hazy
region Of which reporters have had to write only
ond-hand information, information which the con-
victs gave up reluctantly. 1t natural they
should not want to talk much about period filled
with personal humiliation for themselves.
For this reason Mr.. Peters actual residence in the
pententiary prisoner, accepted such by the
real prisoners and by the guards gave him coveted
opportunity to experience the life of the whom

has just been issued by the United
States Coast and Geodetic Survey.
Although not on a scale large enough
TO be used for entering the numerous
harbors and anchorages indenting the
shores of the Sound, il serves as con-
venient diagram for indicating their
general characteristics and in making
an intelligent selection of the larger
scale charts, which should be used for
intricate inshore navigation.
Since the larger part of the traffic
leaves New York City or has that port
as its destination, says the Coast Sur
vey, some idea of the magnitude of the
commerce of the Sound can be OBJ
tanned from the arrivals and depart
ures of vessels at He'll Gate, which were
129.749 in 1914, the value of freight
transported s126,255,s51, and the num-
Der Of passengers carried 1,222,532.
This commerce will be increased when
proposed improvements in He'll Gate
and the East River are realized, i'm
which will allow vessels of
the deepest draft 10 reach New York by
this route.

HEAVY DEMAND
ADVANCES COTTON
Prices Reach New High Ground
Close Shows Net Gain
Of % to 81 Points.

The cotton market was extremely ac-
tive, with prices making new hign
ground for the movement on q broaden
ing and even excited demand. Inc
more favorable view OF international
politics seemed to bring many buying
orders into the market. while 1t also
appeared from the talk around the ring
that the mention Of peace proposals in
the German note has strengthened the
hope OF some such development before
the end Of the new crop season. AT
any rate, heavy realizing sales were
readily absorbed. and prices closed
within Q or points Of the best. with
the tone firm at a net advance Of 20
to 81 points
Liverpool did not fully meet the local
gains OF Friday afternoon, but the
market here opened firm at an advance
Of 2 to 8 points on active buying, which
came from trade interests as well as
from Wall Street and outside sources
There was enough profit taking TO
cause some little irregularity during
the middle Of the morning, but reac-
tions were slight, and the best point
of the day was reached In the late
trading, when July contracts sold at
1919 and December at 1909, or about
81 points above last nights closing ing.
ures. Notwithstanding the extent OF
this advance, the market showed re-
markable powers of absorption for
Saturday half-holiday. as illustrated by
the experience of broker who had
selling order for 10000 bales and who
got off the contracts within q range OF
? or 3 points just before the close.
The local market for spot cotton was
steady and 25 points higher at 1850 ior

DECISION AFFECTS
GAS STOVE COOKING
Consolidated May Write Range
Leases from April |.

The Consolidated Gas Company last
week received the right again to lease
gas ranges for a period of one year
from April by decision of the Pub
lie Service Commission, reversing its
attitude as taken on April 80, 1915. Ed
ward B. Burch requested that the gas
company be ordered to arrange its gas
range rental for a term of one year
beginning October /. the date of the
principal moving day in the greater city.
A rehearing of this original decision
was held last October, when argument
against the decision was made by
Cyrus C. Miller, chairman OF the execu-
tive committee of the Advisory Council
of Real Estate Interests, and John A.
Gawer, counsel for the Consolidated
Gas Company. The gas company pre-
sented facts showing that half Of its
consumers use their gas ranges for only
six months each year. that is. during
the warm months. By making leases
from October l the season Of demand
covering the summer months would
have been passed and the ranges would
therefore be rented only for q period
of six months.
