He Never Even Winked

The boys are telling a pretty good
one on an Oskaloosa fellow who had
a desire for little of the contrabrand.
He went to Rock Island and while
there he thought he might as wei,
lay in supply for all summer ana
have it over with The goods were
delivered in a small key and placed in
a trunk which he checked to Oska-
loosa as personal baggage. He called
for his trunk next day. The moment
he lifted it he knew something had
happened. The trunk was light but
he never changed countenance He
walked right along as though nothing
had happened. But the fact remains
that some one had opened the trunk
and purpoined five gallons OF good
whiskey. Nor could the owner say a
word in protest.

WORST SNOW IN GENERATION
Middle West Rail Traffic Assuming
Normal Conditions After Forty
Eight Hour Tie-Up.

Chicago, Jan. 1.-THE Middle West
apparently had conquered the worst
snow fall of generation today.
Railroad transportation which had
been completely paralyzed for forty
eight hours was rapidlyq becoming
normal Mails and important reight
shipments were given preference over
the passenger traffic.
~Rhe serious fuel and food situations
in Chicago and the other cities which
were caused by the tie-ups was be-
ing relieved somewhat today by the
volunteers who were shoveling all
day Sunday the blocked streets and
tracks.
The Chicago school board ordered
the closing of all of the public schools
for the week as fuel conservation
measure. Thus relieving sixty thou
sand school boys who were thrown in,
combating the snow.

Spectacular Blaze at Sioux City
Causes Loss Estimated at $4,000.

Sioux City, Jan. 12-Fire original

nations have killed millions of dairy
cattle for meat since the war started.
The dairy sections of Europe were
accustomed, before the war, to i'm
port much of their cattle feed When
these shipments were cut off or re-
duced there wasn't enough feed to
maintain the animals-and at the
same time there was an urgent de-
mand for more meat for both mill
tary and civilian populations. So
millions of milk cows went to the
butchers block--and for the reasons
just mentioned the slaughter of dairy
cattle will probably continue during
the war. The worlds limited ship
tonnage is needed for men and pow
der and human food-there isn't room
to send much hay and concentrates
across the Atlantic.
But Of course this is simply piling
up an account that must be paid in
the future. Breeding stock must be
brought from America after the war
to renew the European herds. We
r!ast increase our dairy herds in an
ticipation of that demand after the
war as well as to meet the increasing
requirements of Europe for dairy pro-
ducts during the war.

MIX As a Food.

Milk has increased in price because
of increased costs Of all feeds. Milk
may be regarded as manufactured
product-the COW is the machine, the
feed is the raw material which is
transformed into milk by this ma
chine. Feed and other farm prod
ucts have increased in price. AS a
manufacturing proposition it is fun
damental, of course, that if the cost
Of the raw material increases the cost
of production increases. Doubtless
there have been instances of excess
i've advances in milk prices. Per-
haps in some sections they are too
high. Local regulation must govern
such conditions but, speaking broad
~, it is generally believed by dairy
experts that even at the advanced
prices which now prevail, milk is a
reasonably priced food, considering
its content Of body building and
strength maintaining requirements.
In protein, one quart of milk is equal
to 4.3 eggs or seven ounces of sirloin
steak or six ounces of round steak. In
energy units, one quart of milk is
equal to nine eggs or 11.3 ounces of
sirloin steak or 14.9 ounces of round
steak. Putting this in price terms,
milk at fifteen cents quart is equal,
in protein value, to eggs at 41.9 cents
a dozen or sirloin steak at 34.3 cents
q pound, and in energy value. milk at
fifteen cents is equal to eggs at 20
cents a dozen or sirloin steak at PIP
cents a pound.
