ply of milk is not because dairying is in
creasing, but because it is reaching out
further and further into butter and
cheese territory. There are limits, how
ever, beyond which it is not feasible to
go because of the expense in shipping
milk.
4-Why did milk jump in price all at
once?
The reason why milk jumped in price
so much all at once is the same as the
reason why all other commodities
jumped in prcc-fnancial imitation.
Milk has risen in price less than the gen
cral price level of all commodities and
less than the general rise in price Of all
foods. The sudden rise in price is due
Milk is one Of the cheap foods Accord
ing to the United States Bureau of
Labor, Wholesale prices of all foods in
August averaged go per cent higher than
in 1913. Milk in New York that retailed
at 8 cents a quart in 1913 now retails at
III cents, an increase or rs per cent
For years the products of tho Middle
West fed New York, but the fertile fields
of the Middle West are all now in use.
Moreover the product Of Western farms
is 10 longer cheap. The New York
farmer is no longer compelled to be
dairyman or quit farming. He can now
raise grain and sheep. No longer can
milk be obtained in sufficient supply, ex-

signed and the linen was released the
government guaranteed the same prices
to the farmers and linen manufacturers
which they had been receiving during
the war, and which, owing to the high
cost of labor and other overhead ex-
ponses, were far and away higher than
any pre-war prices
so you see the outlook is not very
encouraging. 1t will be several years be-

cotton and linen. There are mixtures
of the two, but these goods play very
small part on the programme, for to the
woman who has always been accustomed
to buy pure linen there is no distinc-
ton. Either piece Of goods is pure linen
or It Is cotton; the small percentage Of
linen which may be mixed with the cot

BITS OF NEW S
3AWL OF CALF STOPS
ORATORY OF ATTORNEY

The loud lamentng of a calf put
a sudden end to an impassioned bit
of oratory in the superior court in
Council Bluffs yesterday.
The court occupies the coun-
I'll chamber in the city building and
the calf was occupying truck in
the alley Immediately beneath the
open windows of the court room.
The case on trial was the suit Of
Fred B. Peterson against the Non
pareil Publishing company growing
out of an automobile accident. At
torney Dickson was representing
the plaintiff and D. F. Stuart the
defendant.
Attorney Dickson had drawn out
= fine point of law and was arguing
t with fiery impetuosity, address
ing his remarks chiefly to Attor-
ley Stuart He had reached a criti-
cal point and had paused with his
finger pointing at Stuart. There was
intense stiffness in the court room.
What is your answer to that?
There can only be one answer the
young lawyer shouted
"Baa-a! Ba -ah- h-ah!" the calf
bawled.
Judge Capell almost fell of the
bench, The jury screamed and
everybody in the court room was
convulsed with laughter. The at
torney sat down without another
word and the argument was ended
The court had to order a recess be
fore the trial could proceed.

SAY $6 SHOES ARE
DRUG ON MARKET.

Boston. Mass. Aug. l5.-Shoes
retailing from So to 81 pair are a
drug on the market. according to
witnesses who appeared at the
grand jury investigation of the high
cost of living. They testified that
customers demand a more expensive
grade and that as result profits
have to be made on the finer grades
of leather. while there is no cali for
parts of hides formerly used for
manufacturing cheaper shoes,
The needs of foreign governments
after the war began and the in
creased demand for shoes after
America became party to the con-
ilict were among the causes of the
increases in price, according to
other witnesses. Tanners and manu-
tacturers, it was claimed, were all
anxious to have prices drop.

London, Aug. l3.-(By The AS

commons this evening, after heated
debate, adopted an amendment to
the profiteering bill empowering
the Board of Trade, after an investi-
cation, to fix wholesale and retail
prices. The vote was l52 to oS.
The amendment was denounced,
among others, by Lord Robert
Cecil, former minister of war trade,
who expressed amazement that the
government should accept "an
amendment destroying the whole
basis of the bill and revolutionizing
the trade of the country
Sir Donald MacLean, a liberal

Aim to Starve Paris.
Paris, Aug. l3.-(By The Asso-
Grated ress.)-The government is
investigating the origin Of and the.
zeal motive for sending yesterday
1000 kilograms, addressed presum-
ably by commission merchants to
producers in the country. advising
producers to cease shipments to
Paris. The telegraph employees, sus-
p;cious of the significance of so
many kilograms of this character,
held up the messages. For this they
we're officially blamed, but unoffi-
cially praised by Premier Clemen-
ceau, who took upon himself all the
responsibility.
In some quarters these kilograms
are taken as evidence of a plot by
merchant profiteers to attempt to
starve Paris in revenge for the ac-
ton of the consumers vigilance
committees and in the hope of
frightening both the authorities and
the consumers.
1t was announced at the ministry
Of commerce that if the investiga
ton shows concerted action among
commission merchants they will be
expelled from the central markets.
