PRICE OF MILK KEPT UP THRU
 LOST BOTTLES,

WASHINGTON, Oct. (by Asso- ciated Press) Replacing lost milk bottles adds to the price of milk paid by the city consumers, ali inves- tigation by the department of agricul- ture has disclosed, although no at tempt was made to fix the amount added to consumers bills for this reason In at least 27 cities junk dealers were found to carry on reg ular traffic in milk bottles.
 The report says milk dealers are compelled to purchase one and two bottles every month for each bottle %key have filled daily during that period," and continues.
 "The loss among small dealers is less than that sustained by the large enterprises. The small dealers have greAtter breakage than the large dis tributers, but they are better able to check up on the return of their bottles and therefore do not lose so many in that manner.
 Breaking bottles, losing or using them for other purposes, selling to junk dealers, or giving the bottles belonging to one dealer to another adds materially to the consumers bill and is an economic error which each and every consumer can help to reduce by returning every bottle in good condition"

CITIES GAIN POPULATION
 FROM FARMING COUNTIES

TACOMA, Wash, Oct. 6 (by Asso- ciated Press).-A movement from ru ral districts to cities is shown in population statistics for Washington Though the state made gain of 1926 since 1910, there was a fall ing off in rural communities.
 Thirteen farming counties in the state lost population in the ten year period, and no purely agricultural county made any considerable gain
 The state increase is due to the growth of cities of 25,000 population and upward, the figures disclose.
