San Diego.-It vas officially an

the two aviators from Bahia Los An

TO which point they had flown after
losing their way In a border patrol

According to Mai. r. S. Bratton,
head Of the military party sent from

were from a Mexican sloop, their iden-

by the young aviators in the form of
notes scrawled in part on the wings

plane in which Connolly and Water

the messages, evidently written when
the aviators had almost lost hope of
being found, were of such a tragic
nature that Maj. Bratton asked the
newspaper reporters to refrain from
using them, out OF consideration for
the officers families
Maj. Bratton said that the two avia-
tors had gone 10 days without food
or at least without much to sustain
them. The fate that drew them far
from their air path remained with
them until the very last. Maj. Theo

PRODUCTION OF CLEAN MILK
Comparatively Easy Matter in Spring
and Summer, but Quite Different
In Winter.

1t Is comparatively easy matter to
produce clean milk In the spring and
summer months for the simple reason
that the cow is generally on pasture
during these months and when allowed
to care for herself she will keep clean
In the winter, however, she is kept in
closer quarters and 1t is then that the
greatest amount of dirty milk is apt
to appear ON the consumers table IL
