PRICE OF MILK.

Contributors to Nashville neWspa
pers are busy belaboring the dairy
men of that section for the prices they
charge for milk. A large majority Of
these writer's live in the city and 1t Is
apparent from their statements that
they know little or nothing about the
problems of practical dairying. Dur
ing the agitation last summer for low
err milk prices a committee of disin
terested business men was appointed
by the county food administration to
make an investigation. This commit
tee held a number of hearings, took
testimony on both sides and unani,
mously sustained the increase as
wholly justified.
There are plainly two sides to the
question. 1t is not denied that in
spite of the increase in the prices
paid dairymen for milk the number OF
diaries and the supply of milk produc-
ed in Nashville territory have decreas-
ed in recent years. This statement
tells its own story. If the production
Of milk and dairy products were as
profitable as the newspaper writer's
tell us instead of decrease in the
volume of the business there would
be an increase. Capital usual goes
where it can make good and satisfac-
tory returns. And it does not re-
quire an enormous amount of capital
to equip and operate a dairy. That is
there are scores and scores OF men in
and about Nashville who can COM
mand enough money and credit to
equip and operate dozen individual
diaries, albeit the capital outlay is
twice what it was a few years ago.
1t is easy, very easy to take pen
Gil and paper and figure profit on any
farm enterprise. A man with a good
mathematical mind can take tablet
and paper and a hundred imaginary
cows and figure himself independently
rich within few years. He does this
because he never takes into consider
alton the contingencies that must
arise. He does not take account of
the times when the cows OF the herd
are non-productive, when they die or
become from one cause or another un-
profitable.
Dairying is a hard and exacting bus
mess. It is about the most combining
business imaginable. The man who
owns or operates dairy has just
about the most jealous mistress in the
world. There is really not an hour
of a single day of the year that he
can count his own.
Ofcourse actual profiteering on the
part of tine dairymen of Nashville is
not to be defended. They are enti-
tied to fair and reasonable compen-
sation If they are getting more it is
safe to say that within short time
others will enter the business who
will be satisfied with less and then
prices will take tumble.

NEW ROAD LAW,

There should be no delay in the en-
actment of the proposed road law for
Maury county. 1t is not altogether
the law that The Herald would have
drafted. Like nearly all matters in a
democratic government it represents
a compromise. Practically all legisla'
ton is the result of an adjustment OF
differences. Both factions submitted
their differences to the county court
and road association and the bill pre-
scented by Senator Clarke is the bill
agreed upon by those two bodies.
Whatever may be some Of its objec-
tons it ought to be enacted into a
law and given a fair trial.
1t is assumed that the delegation
from this county will respect the
wishes of the court and association
and stand solidly behind the bill. If
this is the case there will be no de-
lay in the passage of the measure.
1t is important that it be passed be-
fore the recess since the sooner it
goes into effect, the sooner the people
will receive the benefits of its vir
tus, il any there be. Assuredly we
cannot afford to stand still any long
er on the very important and far
reaching question of road construc-
ton and maintenance There must
be some progress or the interests of
the people of city and county will be
seriously threatened.

127SEEKPERM|TS
TO CARRY ARMS
Drastic Law Covering Pur-
chase and Sale Urged by
Maj. Pullman.
TEXT OF LAW IN EFFECT

One hundred and twenty-seven per-
sons applied at police headquarters
yesterday for permission to go armed.
Such permits are issued by the judges
OF the Police Court and not by police
officials, and applicants were so in
formed. They are issued on written
application to the judges, the latter
requiring that a showing be made to
satisfy them that the applicant is a
proper person to be armed and tina,
there exists necessity for such
arming.
Authority for the issuance of such
permits is found in the concealed
weapon law of the District of Column
bia. which, in part, reads:
Text of Law.
THAT nothing contained in this sec
ton shall be so construed as to apply
to any person who shall have been
such weapon or weapons by any judge
or the Police Court of the District of
Columbia; and authority is hereby
given to any such judge to grant such
permit Tor period of not more than
one month at any one time, upon
satisfactory proof to him Of the neces-
sity for the granting thereof, and
further, upon the fling with such
judge of bond, with sureties to be
approved by said judge, by the ap-
plicant for such permit, conditioned
to the United States in such penal
sum as said judge shall require for
the keeping of the peace, save in the
case of necessary self-defense by such
applicant during the continuance of
said permit, which bond shall be put
in suit by the United States for its
benefit upon any breach of such con-
dition"

SALE Of FIREARMS
CHECKED IN CITY
Westinghouse Try to Buy
in Alexandria and Ba|ti-
more, Report Says.

In but few instances, il is believed,
were revolvers sold in Washington
yesterday. The majority of the deal
ers complied with the request Of Maj.
Pullman that no firearms be sold to
persons in this city.
On Monday, however, scores of per-
sons purchased such weapons. In
many households last night extra pre-
caution was taken against intrusion
Throughout the day many housewives
armed themselves and saw that doors
and windows were kept locked.
Arrests in Alexandria.
A number purchased revolvers or
other arms in Alexandria yesterday,
according to reports. One dealer there
said that his supply of firearms had
practically been exhausted. Two col
ored boys. Edward Butler and J. F.
Washington, were arrested there and
held as suspicious persons" 1t is
stated they had many cartridges in
their pockets. They are to be given a
hearing tomorrow morning.
At the request of Inspector Grant.
chief of detectives, Sheriff Aud of
Montgomery county yesterday asked
the merchants throughout the lower
section of the county and in Rock
vile not to sell firearms or ammuni-
ton of any kind until the rioting in
Washington is suppressed.
Baltimore Requested Not to Sell.
In Baltimore, Police Marshal Carter
issued a request to all dealers in fire.
arms not to sell revolvers. pistols or
other weapons during the present
situation. 1t was reported several
Washingtonians had endeavored to
redeem revolvers from pawnshops.
They were refused.

Drastic Law Needed.

In conversation with a Star reporter
this morning. Maj. Pullman said the
recent use of firearms emphasizes the
necessity for more drastic law
governing the whole question of buy
ing and carrying weapons Several
bills dealing with the question have
been introduced in Congress. They
were sidetracked for some reason,
however, but 1t is said that recent
events probably will be the means Of
inducing Congress to take early ac-
ton on the subject
In Maj. Pullman's last annual report
to the District Commissioners he call
ed attention to the need of better
regulation of firearms as follows:
