SHARP DROP In
PRICE OF MILK
Result of Entry of Milk Plant as
Retailer
Price for Bottled Milk to BE 10 Cents a
Quart Hereafter.


A drop of from ono cent to five cents a
quart in the price of milk was made to the
Brattlcboro public beginning Wcdncs-
day, Sept. !, as a result of the dcci-
sion made recently by the Windham
County Cooperative Milk Producers. Inc,
to supply milk to the retail trade at a
much lower price than has been charged
by the retail dealers. The prices vary
from 10 cents a quart to II cents a quart
for bottled milk. The prevailing price is
10 cents.
The Milk Co. announced last week
that it would begin the delivery of milk to
retail customers within a short time, after
having offered to buy the routes of three
pcddlerS who were then securing their
supply at the plant on Putncy road and
who had maintained the high retail price
which already was in force and which the
Milk Go. felt was too high. The Milk
Co. had become convinced that milk
should be furnished to the Brattleboro
consumers at lower figure, which should
result in the consumption of more milk
and decided to withdraw wholesaling milk
to the pcddcrs.
One of the pcddlers. II. r.. Moore of
EStcyville. sold his route to the Milk Co,
which was first to begin making deliver
les OF all bottled milk mt 10 cents a quart.
u. ii. Winchester Of West Brattleboro,
another pcddcr. retained his route. sccur-
ing his supply elsewhere, an contin-
ued to maintain his prices. which were 10
cents for bulk milk and II cents for bot
tied milk. On Sept. /, however he
cut his prices to 10 and II cents. The
third pcddler, r. l.. Brooks of Brattleboro,
sold his route to 6. j. Perkins 4 Son of
the upper West DummprstOn road. Be
ginning Monday Mr.. Perkins will sell for

The experience of some merchants on
Wednesday afternoon following July 4. at
which time the stores were kept open, was
such as to make them think that Brattle-
boro people did not generally understand
that the stores were open on Wednesday
afternoon of the week in which legal
holiday was observed
1t should be distinctly understood that
all the stores in Brattleboro will be open
all day next Wednesday. This is in ac-
cordance with the notices posted in all the

and it seems well to here state that the
stores Will be open every day next week

The more or less blase frequenters of
casual attention yesterday afternoon to
a group of four that gathered around
one of the corner tables. They did not
realize that an important episode in an
interesting romance was being enacted.
A clean cut, well groomed youth of
twenty or thereabout was playing host.
His guests were an older, Immediately
clad man of distinguished bearing and a
middle aged woman, well gowned and OF
undeniable attraction and poise With
the youth was a younger woman--eigh-
teen-vivacious, then demure. who
flashed brilliant eyes at the older man.
then allowed the lids to droop when they
countered those of the other woman.
All four seemed to be enjoying the sit
uation despite the tenseness.
This is Kate, Dad,' the youth finally
managed to announce, with brave ef-
fort to preserve his bearing. And while
Dad kissed Kate the youth did the same
for the elder woman. Then the women
embraced, the men shook hands and the
quartet sat down.
1t was young Dick Fagan's method of
presenting his BRIDE the former Kate
Stevens to his father. William r. Pagan,
and also of pleading forgiveness from
the young woman's mother for having
eloped from Atlantic City ten days ago.
