Altrulstic farmers in the Pleasant
Prairie neighborhood have elected to
champion the cause Of Kenosha wo
men and children in their fight against
prevailing milk prices.
/ Accordingly they are quoting stats
tics which are not exactly favorable to
the cause of the milk dealers. They
contend that the latter are Offering
them only two dollars and seventy
cents can for milk that is subsequent
ly sold III Kenosha for sixteen cents a
quart or nine cents a pint; that Chi
|cago concerns buying milk over the
electric line are willing to pay three
dollars a can for the same milk and
sell it in the metropolis for fifteen
cents quart and eight sents a pint;
and that local dealers must be making
an enormous profit on their milk at
present rates because they are now
paying less per can for their product
than they did when they sold it at four
teen cents quart and seven cents a
pint.
These are facts, not just figures, =
one Of the farmers said on Monday af-
ternoon. When the dealers were sell
ing milk at fourteen cents they were
paying US two dollars and eighty-five
cents per can for it. They were sat
isfied with their profit then until there
came chance to increase it and now
they re paying less and charging more
for milk than they did some three Or
four weeks ago. y
The Pleasant Prairie men insist that
they cannot furnish milk to the local
dealers at the present rates without
selling it at loss. They say that the
cost of feed is such as to make the prof
it on milk at two dollars and seventy
cents can hardly worth the work and
worry required to produce it.
By way of Parthian shot they are
threatening to kill their cows for beef
and leave the milk dealers at the mercy
of the Milk Producers Association.
The protest of the farmers listens
we'll Z but here S the rub as the sitsa-
ton is explained by local dealers: farm
ers in the Pleasant Prairie neighbor
hood are unorganized and independent
of the Milk Producers Associations; be-
ing free lances, they have sold their
| milk from time to time at prices en-
| tirely different from those demanded
| by the association; as a consequence
| they do not quote the standard rates
| which have necessarily regulated tlls
price of milk duriIg its recent fluctua
tions; they mention only their individ.
ual figures and apparently forget that
the dealers must depend upon members
Of the association for the larger part
of their milk-supply; hence the seem
ing discrepancy between the cost and
price Of milk now and month ago.
Despite the little weaknesses in their
arguments the farmers have created d
new interest in the milk situation and
may have started something which
will result in an official investigation of
Imilk-rates and the profits made from
them by both dealers and producers in
/ Kenosha and Kenosha county.

 In his letter to Major Riddle Rick ard wrote $ follows:
 T am writing to you in your Capac- ty as president of the army, navy and Civilian board of boxing control For many years I have been convinced that boxing in this country has been handicapped because of the absence of a proper organization to look after it's interests,
