COMMITTEE ON
 WOOD FOR FUEL STARTS WORK

Hartford, Dec. 4-The humble a.x is to take it's place with the rifle, the machine gun and the mortar as an instrument of warfare if plans being made by Thomas W. Russell, Federal Fuel Administrator. for Connecticut, and his committee on wood for fuel go through successfully. Under the su- pervision of James s. Storrow, Fed eral Fuel Administrator for New nEg- land, the committee has launched a plan to stimulate the cutting of wood for fuel this winter as a means of re- ieving the coal shortage while the war continues and thus provide more coal for the needs of the Army and Navy and the industries upon which they must depend.
 The committee, which is composed of State Forester W. O. Fflley and a representative of every county in the state, ds endeavoring to increase the
 cutting of cordwood as much as pos- sible and to enlist the aid of every
 man who Is able to wield an ax and can devote part or all his time tc
 woodchopping. There is a large quan. | tity of wood in the state suitable fol l fuel, some of which is within easy l hauling distance of the large cities | where the need of coal is perhaps 1 greatest.
 Wood has been scarce this winter | because conditions for the past two
 or three seasons have been such a: | to discourage cutting and marketing | but there is an excellent market thi! | winter and surety, woodmen say, that
 the market will continue to be ex
 cellent for at least another season The chief difficulty this winter in tht wood situation is lack of labor, bu
 this can be met if the farmers devote 1 more of their attention than the! l have in the past to the possibilities O. i developing this industry, and thu wood for fuel committee contends tha.
 it is their patriotic duty as we'll a!
 their opportunity to do this. Every farmer is urged to work III for immediate use the partially sea, soned tops on his woodlots which ha4 been left from numbering and to GU | the chestnut which has been killed b. l blight before it has gone to waste Wood varies in fuel value according t. 1 type. A cord of season hickory O.

NEGRO BURNED AT STAKE,

Dyersburg, Tenn, Dec. s1Lgon Scott, g negro, who attacked a young white woman in this county a week ago Thursday, was burned at the stake in the public square here yesterday afternoon, while thousands watched until his tortures ended. Sheriff Bryant of Dyer took the negro to Union City Saturday night and placed him in jail. He telephoned for three officers of this county to bring him through the county, Sun- day morning. They left with Ligon in car, when a mob stopped them and took the negro.
 The entire county knew of the cap- ture and thousands flocked to town. A trial was arranged for and a jury selected and the mob was importun- ed to withhold action until the jury decided his fate. The negro confessed his guilt.
 | An iron stake was driven in the ground and the negro was tied to it He was stripped of his clothing and red hot irons were applied to all parts of his body. Finally a bonfire was built around him and he was burned to death. Then the spectators dis persed. No arrests were made.

WHAT INCREASES COST

would reduce the price of milk 85 cents per hundred pounds. This in- dicates that the cost of milk today is attributable to other factors than the cost of grain by-product feeds or mixed feeds, made from grain by product materials.
 These other factors are embodied in the higher labor costs, which in many localities have more than treb- led, the higher prices for everything the dairyman buys, rom the clothes he and his family wear, the grocery supplies, household furnishings, etc.. to the machinery, buildings, repairs, replacing live stock losses, growing young stock, interest charges, etc., necessary in the operation of his milk making plant.
 The Increased Delivery Cost.
 Still another factor that has helped to increase the cost milk to the con- sumer is the increased delivery cost, which again includes higher wages to the de1fveryman, higher cost of glass i bottles, caps, milk cans, milk depot equipments, etc. All along the line, as in every mercantile manufacturing business, the cost of producing and delivering the milk has naturally in- creased.
 Against all of these higher costs, the increase in his grain by-product is a small part. He is fully entitled to the price he obtains for his prod uct which has not increased in the same proportion as the increase in the cost of the many commodities he has to buy in the conduct of his busi- ness and household.
 Milk Sttll Cheapest Food 1 And yet, milk at present prices, ii the cheapest animal food the public can buy. It is cheaper than beef pork, poultry or mutton. Two quarts of milk furnish more nutriment thar one pound of meat. Therefore, milk at even 20 cents or 25 cents a quar- would be cheaper than meat, and the intelligent, fair-minded consumer who knows these facts will not only gladly pay the present fair prices for milk but will use milk more literally.
 If the dairymen cannot get price for their product at which there i. a reasonable profit they may sell thefl herds to the butcher and engage fl raising wheat, the price of which ha. been fixed at a profitable point. Ther the public will be obliged to pay dou ble or treble today's prices for mill if they can get it.
 This is not an idle statement. Asl the government auth horities and the, will tell you that milch cows the pas year have been slaughtered by th' thousands because it was said to b, unprofitable to milk them at the pre- vious prices of milk
 Investigations show that the cos of grain feed is responsible for onl. one-fourth of the increased cost O milk.
 Live stock, especially dairy COWS should be fed upon the by-product of cereal manufacture after the hu man food has been largely utilized supplemented by home grown rough age, silage and pasturage when eco nomically available.-American Feet Manufacturers Association.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1917-12-04

The present high cost of milk has tbeeh cllarEed to the high cost of feed. ITO determine whether this claim is right or wrong we must consider facts. Feed, in this analysie, is that which the farmer has to buy-the grain 'poFkicn of the ration. ,gssH
 Mileh cows in states east of Indiana are fed mainly on by-product feeds or hiixed feeds made from by-prod- luct materials in addition to the home ratBed roughage, silage, pasturage, Cows in states west of Ohio are also fed on these by-product feeds. Ibut largely in connection with home Isfown grains, roughage, silage, pas- tarage, etc. Home grown grains are Ino more necessary to the ration in |4ds West than in the East, except that cuatom and lack of scientific know Hedge on feeding value of by-product Imaterials has caused farmers of the |1Yest to feed their higher cost grains Instead of. the lower cost by-product feeds.
 In neither of these localities, it will be noticed, is corn or oats fed ex- lclusiTely as a dairy feed, therefore, fhe high prices at which these two rafns have sold during the past year have had small influence on the in .ereased cost of milk.
 The Abnormal Price of Corn
 The abnormal prices at which corn bas sold were not due to the dairy 4eed demand but, on the contrary, to the unusually increased disti1lery de- 1.3ands, caused by prospective prohibi- 1lon legfslation, excessive war require haeuts for alcohol, abnormal export Remand, unusually heavy milling for human food, starch and other manu- Recurring purposes.
 The average cost of by-product ma 3sria1s and mixed feeds made from bg-product materials, has not increas- ed during 1917 over 1916 to exceed f25 per ton. Nor have they tncreas- "a more than $50 per ton above the Itost prevailing in years immediately nzreceding the war.
 The1 Holstein-Friesian Association ateS that 1t requires 25 pounds oi grain feed to produce 100 pounds oi Ho1stein milk. The American Jersey Cattle Club finds that 1t requires 8; pounds of grain feed to produce 10t pounds of Jersey milk. V
 Proportion of Grain to MIX
 Granting that it requires a maxi mum of 33 pounds of grain feed tc produce 100 pounds of milk, the in efeRsed cost of the grain feed at $2I ekfra cost per ton would be one ant one-quarter cents per pound, and or 8s pounds a total of Al cents on 10t pounds of milk.
 Figuring on the basis of $30 pc ton increase in cost of grain feed, i would increase the cost of producinl 100 pounds of milk 50 cents.
 Invsstigation made by the BostoT Chamber of Commerce, the Pittsburgh MIX Investigation Committee ant othsfsy aHill ssdbstantiate the above fig
 Total Cost of Grain Ration
 The total cost of cows grain ra tion for the production of 100 pounds 1f milk at present prices for grain by bfodtict feeds Is approximately onl! S5 conts-a very small part of tn, 368snt milk cost. If this feed wer, knrnlaied to dairymen for nothing.

The Man In White
~ Or. FRANK CRANE
Copyright. 1915. by Frank Crane)

There is a man In New York City who
all the year round, winter and summer,
walks the stretes bare-headed and dress
ed only in his underwear, white trousers,
and white shirt. His name is Percy
Richards. The trouble with him is that
he has ideas.
like to see him. He is fine, upstand-
ing fellow, broad shouldered, with clear
Glue eyes and pleasant expression. But
his peculiar attraction is that he is .
rebel.
l love all rebels, protestants, non-con-
tormists, and minorities. I love courage
of any kind. Nothing is so beautiful as
defiance
And it takes more courage to be bold
alone than with a crowd. The devotees
Of fevered patriotism, the enthusiastic
party men, the rampant sectarians, and
the like, doubtless are brave enough in
their way. but the lone fighter is Drawer.
There were the militant suffragettes of
England before the war. They smashed
windows and city ordinances; they
shrieked and paraded and pestered. They
made themselves magnificent nuisances.
II was their way. We timid souls CEN
sured and admired them.
Then there were the passive resisters,
Of the same tight little island.
And we have with us the birth control
protesters.
And the anarchists.
And Percy Richards.
Life would get rather stagnant with
out these stirrers-up. We all have ten
iency TO slump down into conformity.
Age dulls our teeth. Many promising
ripstaver and swashbuckler Of twenty
one is drowned in the bog Of respecta-
bility by the time he is forty.
But new apostles spring up. The
minority is always with us. The liter
ature of protest goes on forever. The
radical, the outlaw, the reformer, the
untamed. they help along. Even those OF
us who are too lazy, ease-loving or unde-
cided 10 take our stand on anything
against everything are glad that others
have more courage and less prudence.
We get tired of the eternal pussy-foot-
ing and side-stepping Of the majority,
tired of the dreadful price Of boredness
we must pay for social position, tired Of
contemplating the innumerable things We
mustn't do, mustn't say. and mustn't
think.
Then we see the man in white striding
magnifcently down Fifth avenue in his
tennis clothes, and we say:
go it, PERCY We don't know just ex-
actly what it's all about, but we're for

Ii is a terrible admission of weakness
