A COW ON EVERY FARM
Consume More Milk and Dairy Prod
 ucts
Should Be The Slogan of Every Com
 munity
(By Will A. Hall, Manager Interna- tional Sugar Feed Company,
 Memphis, Tenn.)

For raising children, milk, rich milk, is indispensable. Clean, whole milk is a priceless boon for every growing person and for all others who need it, only little less, and it can be oh tained at practically no extra cost.
 There is on every southern farm grazing land, and roughage could be grown to supply COW during the non- grazing season. Cows need more than just grass and roughage. They must be supplied with protein concentrates and too much cottonseed meal will cause securing and produce soft, tal- lowy butter.
 To complete her feed, that is, to balance it and produce maximum quality and quantity of milk, the cheapest diet is a special dairy feed which is sweet and palatable and SUD- plies the COW with every element needed for milk production.
 Feeding 8 pounds of this special feed each day to COW giving two to three gallons of milk would cost only 6 to cents per gallon.
 50 cents per gallon is an excessively low estimate of the food value of milk There Is No Food As Cheap As Milk
 No food is as nutritious and health full as milk.
 A we'll known authority has this to say of milk as food value D
 Many years ago the writer became convinced that he could not grow out pigs properly without milk. Then tankage came to his rescue and to a certain extent served as substitute. At least, he learned that tankage was the nearest or best substitute for milk, although not quite taking it's place.
 In fact, l learned many years ago but for me there was nothing that would quite take the place of milk for growing out young pigs. In short, the feeders of live stock learned this many years ago, but only recently has it been proved that the same fact holds true for growing children
 There is no substitute for milk. It is an absolute necessity for the proper growth and development of children. It is not necessary that the child drink the milk. but it must be consumed. as drink, in soups. in bread, in creamed foods, or in some other form.
 This has been proved beyond any question and it is positive fact that there is no substitute, but still there are thousands of families in which milk is not regular or principal food product even for the growing chill ,dren.
 To all these drives for Red Cross funds, tuberculosis hospitals, Salva- tion Army support, charities, etc, all of which are worthy, there should be one more added, because more innpor- tant than all others combined-a drive for milk cow and an ample milk supply for every home.

SPEAKING OF SALE BILLS

We're printing some mighty fine sale bills this winter. A few weeks ago we got out an order of bills for a farmer north of town and they were so attractive and nifty that he couldn't begin to take care of the crowds that f1ocked to the sale. Af- ter getting the top price for every animal, implement and article on the bill, Jim, the auctioneer, simply couldn't stop. The people just clam bring for more. The farmer, in the hope of driving them away, put up his mother-in-law She brought $160 on the hoof. Then he offered his mortgage for sale. A lifelong friendship between two old neighbors was shattered as each tried to outbid the other. It was finally knocked down to the richer man who was promptly knocked down by the poor CT. He sold the weeds along the roadside. He sold gold brick that he bought at the Worlds Fair. He sold the ruts in the road in front of his place and then offered the secret of where he had the sale bills print ed. We cannot give the results as the returns are not all in. They are bidding yet. That's the kind of sale bills we print. Give us a call.

Heat sesps Out of Walls.

Engineers find it takes two or three
times as much fuel as 1t should to heat
the ordinary dwelling.
That is because houses frequently
are not built to. conserve heat, or for
any purpose but to sell.
The way to heat a room economical
" is to insulate IT, Most persons
know that air space in walls conserves
heat. But this is true only II the walls
hold dead air. Most walls and ceilings
aren't tight enough. Hot air goes
through them like water through a net.
Banking up lower walls Of houses
with dry leaves and earth still is
practiced in cold states. particularly
IN the country But most city and
town houses can be made tighter with
little effort. The insulation Of walls
and ceilings can be improved, and
much coal saved.

showed how a city depends on cleo
tricity in transportation and manufac-
turing.
But" said Doctor Steinmetz. "al-
though we are absolutely dependent
on our electricity today. we have still
only begun to use It. In the city pres

Dear Opinionites:
All signs point to the fact that
spring has come in the north as the
exodus continues. A good many of
our neighbors and friends have al
ready started fer their homes and
more are to go in the next few days.
These who have gone write back that
it seems cold as they get into the
Carolinas and they are fortunate when
the steam is turned on in the cars
But the most potent reminder that
spring is here is the leaving Of
PryoF's Band The last concert was
on Monday evening and fully twelve
thousand people were out to hear it,.
They gave a very fine program for
the crowd was perfectly quiet except
for the applause and the Band felt
the inspiration of a large and APP
preciative audience. Mr. Pryor was
presented a gold matchbox set with
a beautiful diamond engraved ITO
Arthur Pryor From His Miami
Friends" and the band as a whole
was presented a Tyre made of roses
and violets on a background of
green, while the soloist had a huge
bunch of roses. We all hope that
Mr. Pryor will come back with his
band next year and that il will be
even a larger band than this year.
We are sure Mr. Pryor himself will
come back whether he plays or not
for he has been badly bitten with
the Miami bug and has bought him
a lot out to the west of us and is to
build himself a home. His son also
will have a home here and some ten
other members # the present band
are landowners here.
The work for the coming summer
is going to be brisk. The first two
days in APP il permits which total
S52,700 we're issued and IL is expected
that new hotels, new industries and
new amusement places will all be
brought here during the summer
months. Buena Vista, part Of which
is within the city limits, has lust
begun a new theatre, which will seat
eight hundred people and this is one
type Of building we lack here. We
have plenty Of amusement places but
we do lack a real theatre. Miami
proper will soon see the need Of such
a building and then we will have as
fine a theatre as there is in the
South Miami Beach is already erect
ing a fine, large theatre
The Galatis building at the bridge
on Flagler Street about four blocks
from US has a new store and apart
ment building partly finished. Since
beginning IL some two weeks ago. il
has been decided that il is not large
enough and a third story is to be
added as the demand for River-view
apartments is big.
We also lack an adequate pier but
New York financiers propose building
this summer an amusement pier which
will be the biggest thing in the
South. If the plan gees through. Il

wide. II will have an auditorium
seating 5000 with balconies to seat
5000 more. The plans for the pier
call for an reinforced co-crcte

structure resting on concrete piling,
the building to be 136 feet wide
with an automobile drive 80 feet
around it. The section neal est the
street would be three stories high
and used for an auditorium, the rest
of the building would be two stories
high with a roof garden and prom
enade overhead and the structure
would be divided by an arcade with
room for about 157 concessions along
its length. At the extreme end
would be boat landing. The cost
would be about a million and half.
The financier, most interested, thinks
it will be possible to secure the
permission of the war department if
the people of Miami favor the prop
osition. The one problem involved
is the extra dredging and the making
of bend in the channel to go out
around the pier. But that is the
big project before the people. here
this summer. 1t would surely be
big asset to the city, if it's construc-
ton can be arranged.
We are seeing advertisements con-
stantly for the Aero Limited for
passengers for a one day trip to New
York City. The Aero Limited is do
ing regular business on this route
and it won't be many years before
this will be a popular way of travel.
So far the trains are crowded which
shows that they are still the recog
nized mode of travel by most tour
lists.
The secretary of our Motor Club,
Mr. Maxwell. has a new proposition
which will be presented at the
present legislature, which has just
convened. 1t plans for tax on
gasoline of two cents per gallon,
which will be a state tax entirely,
making gasoline two cents higher in
Florida than in Georgia or any other
state. Mr. Maxwell points out that
a million dollars would be raised in
one year, to be applied to the
creation of hard surfaced highways
in existence. There are many merits
those who pay the tax are the ones
who are getting the benefit of the
roads and they are paying in exact
proportion to their use of them. We
don't know what the fate of the bill
will be but personally we would be
Glad to see it go through.
The Gales got away Friday morn
ing and by the 10th, Bradford will
again have its hotel open to the
public. They have enjoyed the win
ter in Florida and carried away with
them a coed coat Of summer tan.
We were fortunate to have the
opportunity of showing the town to
Miss Helen Dewey of Montpelier and
Mrs L Martin, widow of Judge
Martin, of Brattleboro on Monday
and Tuesday. They we're much
pleased with our town and we hope
that another season may see them
down here for a longer time. They
came expecting to roast and were
agreeably surprised to find the
weather very comfortable and their
wraps not burdensome during the
evening concert. They returned to
West Palm Beach yesterday noon by
auto bus, as that is popular way cf
travel down here.
Next week, we will begin thinking
definitel- of our own trip north as
we leave here the goth.

Starving China cries to us for
help. 1t has a familiar sound for
China and India, since our first
memories, has always had a
famine-stricken area 1t is sug-
gested that the Red Cross with
draw from Europe and go to the
relief of Asia and in support of
the proposition it is argued that
to continue its stay in Europe
will tend to two things-to pau
perize the people of the countries
where the American Red Cross
is operating and cause this
splendid organization to become
mixed in the political affairs of
Europe. 1t would seem wise
perhaps to begin to withdraw
from Europe for both the above
reasons, and it might be wise to
divert part Of the European
forces to the Asiatic field to
see to the distribution of relief
and to advise as to remedial
measures which might be carried
out later by native forces.
We pride ourselves on our
achievements and think we are in
advance of most of the world.
Yet all this talk about preven-
tive medicine is but another
method of achieving what the
Chinese have always regarded as
essential. It is but another way
Of paying the doctor for keeping
you well instead Of paving him
to cure after you get sick. The
Chinese pay their doctors by the
year to keep them well. The
only trouble with the plan is
that we won't do as we are told
regarding health preservation
and the doctors would be work
ing at a disadvantage without
authority to enforce their orders.
BY the way doctors themselves
are about as bad offenders as the
rest Of us mortals in abusing the
laws of nature. But the idea
is right for all that.

in the Improvement of legal
executions with the electric
chair superceding the rope. But
Nevada seems to have found a
better way than either. In that
state the electric chair is soon to
give way to the gas chamber.
The condemned man is to go to
sleep in an air-tight cell, when
the time comes, the air valves
will be closed and others, admit
ting lethel gas, will be opened.
Life will thus be taken without
the prisoners awakening. The
idea of making an execution a
