H. (. L. HIGH
 IN FLORIDA

The high cost of living reigns su- preme in Florida, writes Amedeo Vacco of 34 Meadow street, this city. but now in Jacksonville, Fla.
 The prices charged in the restau- rants in Florida would even make a New York restauranteur blush. Hotels raise their rates whenever the mood strikes them. and fruits are sky high. . The weather is about the only thing z that a person can enjoy down there, continues the letter, and it is the sort of sunshine that we folks up North but seldom see. The air is balny and clear and raises a great appetite and knowing this, the food profiteers take advanage of a mans somach.
 If the meals were good one wouldn't have so much kicking to do, but when one sits down at a table in a restau- rant and orders meal one enjoys eating well cooked, tasty food and not what seems to be left over warmed up stuff from the day before.
 Vacco is playing a. number of the large theatres and clubs through the South and in Florida he has five or six weekS' engagementS.

Gilmore Submits All Data Secured
On Recent Mix INSPECTION Trip

After making q careful survey OF
milk conditions In Chicago, Cincinnati.
Columbus and Nashville, s. Il. Gilmore.
milk Inspector. has submitted to Com
missioner Frazier q, detail report OF his
investigation. together with sugges-
tons for the improvement of the local
milk situation.
In speaking OF the suggestions made
to him by Mr. Elmore that might be
adopted for Chattanooga, Mr.. Frazier
declared Thursday that there
were some very good points brought
out and that they would all receive his
careful consideration.
The summary OF milk regulations for
local consideration as submitted to Mr..
Frazier are:
Can a fee be assessed for licensing
milk producers and dealers OF which
funds will revert for use In health de-
partment here? A ledger with COM
plete history OF producer and dealer
score card for dairies as used by Gin
clnnati: application for license as used
by Columbus; cards as used by Column
bus for dairy barns; blank forms for
list OF shippers MS used by Cincinnati;
recognize no handcapping OF bottles
more efficient cattle inspections; an
inspector for dairy farms; circulars at
intervals to dnirymen.
A comparison drawn by Mr.. Gilmore,
of the milk control OF other cities with
that OF Chattanooga, Ia as follows;H
Nashvlle--Chattanoo in my opin-
Ion Is much in advance of Nashville as
to accomplishments OF the different
departments in their respective gov
ornments. Nashville permits milk to
he sold in bulk; the dangers are many
by such methods which speaks for
itself from the fact that city has dur
ing the year much sickness among
which typhoid numbers many. Their
one good redeeming feature Is the CO.
operat on OF county In inspecting the
dairy farms.
ChIcago--A large city necessitates n
near perfect milk control, and termed
a reasonably healthhIl city attributed
to milk control; several good
features used that win he most help
full in pursuing daily tasks here Will
be talked OF.
Columbus-A city that never gets
lax and In many ways Is hard boiled"
Mt enforcing ordinances and use some
means worthy OF our consideration.
Concinnati---A city that believes like
Columbus In watching the milk and.
therefore, much money has been col
lected for prosecution to teach some
producers business Is meant II also
uses some methods that would improve
conditions here
