The little vessels bounced along ov-

sweep-wire stretched between them to
cut loose the anchored mines. There
was no way to tell when they would
happen on a floating mine already
torn adrift by the seas. The mines
exploded spontaneously in many cas-
es; once when a trawler was directly
above, and at other times when only
a few feet distant.

Is Fifteen Cents Too Much Fer MiIk7
In my experience in the business,
which extends over four years, have
tried out about $50 cows and find
that two gallons of milk daily per
cow is a high average to obtain.
Among the expenses of maintain
ing COW the cost of feed is the big
gest item. A cow needs per day
about 80 pounds of silage, which now
costs at least $500 per ton, 20 pounds
alfalfa, which now is $50 per ton,
four to five pounds of grain or shorts,
shorts costing $40 per 100 pounds,
besides straw and other roughage.
Expenses after milk is put in bot
ties, such as delivery, loss and break
age of bottles, etc, amounts to more
than four cents a quart.
This milk business requires work
every day for 365 days in the year
and during bad weather the care of
the cows and milk and delivery costs
far more work and longer hours.
With the increased cost of expendi-
lures in this business, it is only natur-
al that the product should bring re-
turns in accordance with the expen-
ditures.

Dental Examination for Public School
Children

Dental Examination for Public School
Children
A law passed by the last legislature
provides for compulsory dental ex-
animation for all children enrolled in
the public schools. This examination
is to be given at least once a year,
preferably at the opening of the
school year. 1t is much more salts
factory for each family to attend to
this matter themselves, going volun-
tarily to the family dentist and hav-
ing a thorough examination of the
children's teeth, followed by the nee
essary dental work. All are request
ed to do this before the opening of
school, September 2. Children who
bring a certificate of examination will
be excused from the general examina-
ton which will be conducted at the
public school building some time ear
Iy in the term.

Good. For a Start

The Massachusetts Democrats have
asked their national chairman to see
to 1t that the national committee of
their party repudiates the action of
President Woodrow Wilson.
In their complaint against the
President the Massachusetts Demo
Gratis contend that he has wrecked
the party "after we lifted him from
obscurity, making him governor,
and then president" The charges
then recite:
HE has held the party up to ridi-
cule by the following facts:
''First-By appointing incompetent
men to positions of responsibility, the
most glazing examples of which are
Postmaster General BurIeson, Secre-
tary of War Baker and Fuel Admins
traitor Garfield.
Second BY leaving the country
at time when the great problems of
flaging through Europe and causing
US to lose the friendship of Italy and
other countries by his actions.
"Third-By attempting to force an
English covenant called the league
of nations upon the American people
at the cost of the destruction of the
declaration of independence of toler-
ating the larceny of Shantung from
China by Japan, and the ROBBERY of
India and Egypt by Great Britain.
'tFourth-By his idle promise at
Washington's tomb, when he declared
he would demand the independence
of small nations, and by refusing to
take up the question at the peace
table, of the liberty of Egypt, India
Ireland and South Africa, and recog-
niging England's right to govern
Egypt.
Fifth BY his advocating interna-
tionalism, which means the loss of
that national spirit of patriotism and
the birth of socialism.
'Sixth-By placing American
troops in Russia, a country against
which congress has not declared war,
and his attempt to kill the spirit of
America for only Americans
There may, of course, be other
charges which would stand against
Mr.. Wilson, but the Massachusetts
Democrats seem to have done fairly
well for a -Hollidaysburg Reg
