Fear Bogus
Milk Sale
Butterfat Substitute
Of Cocoanut Oil Is
Lacking In Content
of Vitamines

New York, Aug. 31.--Unless
Congress enaets a bill proposed to
nut a ban on manufacture OF
bogus milk, production OF milk
gubstitutes, which have been
proved injurious to health, Will
be forced upon New York and
other k-distributing COM
panies, according to Arthur w.
MiIburn, president of the Borden
Condensed Milk Company.
The milk-substitutes lack
yitamines and other ingredients
essential to promoting growth In
an infant. Last year 87,000,00O
pounds OF condensed skinned
s.milk," in which the butter fat
has been replaced by cocoanut oil
or other vegetable fats, were sold
in the United States. AS this sort
OF product has been on the market
for only three years its growth Is
considered alarming by manu-
facturers who believe In retaining
butter fat In condensed milk for
its nutritive qualities.
Feeding children on milk from
which all the butter fat has been
extracted may result In pellagra
and kindred diseases. Mr.. Milburn
said,
Substitutes Condemned
In a brief filed with the Agri-
cultural committee of the house,
which is holding hearings on the
Voigt bill to prohibit substitute
milk, the Borden company,
through its attorney, Walter En-
gels, referred to testimony by
DR.. McCullom, Of Johns Hopkins
University, in which he con-
demned the substitution Of yege-
table oils and fats for butter fat,
on the ground that public health
would not permit Of the sale OF
this article.
Retail grocers sell the substitute
milk on the same terms as con-
densed milk containing butter fat
and often at the same price, ac-l
cording TO Mr.. Milburn, although |
the cost OF manufacture is $1.7O |
a hundred pounds, compared with |
s4.41 for milk containing butter
fat.
"The problem is no imaginary
one,' said Mr.. Milburn. with
cocoanut, peanut and cottonseed |
oils competing with butter fat,
there is bound to be a decided
slump in our dairy industry. The
milk supply rises and falls with
the price obtained for the article.
The butter fat replaced by foreign
oils and fats creates a surplus to
be used In other products, such as
full cream butter and cheese,
oversupplying the market and re-
acting In decreased production.
Last year 7,000. 900 pounds OF
cocoanut oil replaced like
amount OF butter fat in evaporated
milk and put 100000 extra
pounds OF butter on the market
that competed with and lowered
the price of creamery butter. The
public may see In this benefit,
but It is of a very temporary
character, since a lower price for
milk products has always cur
tailed production and induced the
sale OF cows for meat"

Bill wondered how on earth they
would earn five dollars a week
apiece. The largest sum he had
ever earned in one week was a
dollar and ninety-fve cents, and
that was in the summer, when he
didn't have to go to school and there
were lawns to cut. He hated to ask
Butch how he was to get the five
dollars. He waited for some one
else to ask. They all waited for
some one else to ask.
Butch grinned at them.

Bill grinned back at Butch.
~ was" he admitted.
"Well," said Butch, "use some
imagination. You can't earn it."
"We'll have to-" Red Weldon said.
j "None of US can earn it this time
of year," Butch said, "But we can
all take it where we find it,"
Snick Tiedeman frowned with
the intellectual effort involved.
"You mean steal it,"
II mean steal it," said Butch.
On the way home, walking slowly,
with his hands in his pockets, Bill
wondered what. Mary Parker would
say if she knew he had promised on
his sacred honor to steal five dol
lars week. Mary was "his girl. {"
He had never kissed her, but every
body admitted his claim on her. He
always walked home from school
with her.
Five days later he slipped a twen-
ty-dollar bill out of his grandfather
Sheldon's till and gave it to Butch.
You're the first man to come
across, Bill" Butch said.
Bill thrilled with pride; he wanted
to stand we'll with Butch, but he
was glad he had stolen all he had
to steal in one act. He knew he
could never get up nerve enough to
do it again.
Two of the boys dropped out the
first week, but Snick and Red each
got their SIS.
Pm glad they aren't going"
Butch told the successful ones.
-Four of US is enough. But we've
either got to raise the ante or take
a longer time. We haven't got any
time to spare. What d'ya say to ten
| dollars apiece this week."
The three nodded.
Bill knew that Snick was system
atically robbing his fathers drug
store, but he had no idea where
Butch and Red were getting their
share. He wondered how long it
would last. Somebody was sure to
get caught. But he felt fairly safe

dark corner somebody mumbled ere
form school," Erny Baker spoke up
boldly:
'Im against it, and besides, I'm
late for supper. Pm going home"
1t was one of those moments by
which a leader stands or falls.
Butch Harris took plug of tobacco
from his hip pocket, bit off corner
and tucked it away in his cheek.
II would go home if were you,
Erny," he said slowly. His tone was
not bitter or angry or harsh. 1t was
the tone of a tolerant adult speak
ing to very small child. "Its
where you belong"
"You bet" said Snick Tiedeman.
"Sure thing" said Red Weldon.
Bills heart swelled with daring,
He wanted to stand with Butch.
"l'm for going down the river" he
said firmly.
IT'S time to get home" Silver
Kennedy suggested. Lets every
body think it over and we'll have an
other meeting"
"No," said Butch. "Those who
want to go can say so now. Those
who don't can get out of the gang
and stay out. Every man who wants
to go hold up his right hand"
Snick and Red and Bill and two
other boys held up their hands; the
rest shuffled their feet; Silver Ken
nedy slowly raised his arm.
You're out, too, Silver" said
Butch. you're too Slow
"Aw, Butch!' Silver's voice was
appealing.
II mean it," Butch answered
you're out"
"Out of the gang?"
"Out of the gang-for good"
And one thing more, you fellows
who didn't hold up your hands
somebody said reform school a min
ute ago. Well, it'll be the reform
school for us if we get caught-and
for you, too. Every man here is
guilty now. So / guess there won't

TWO days later Butch called to-
gether the five who were loval.
Butch's plan was simple enough
each member was to bring in five
dollars week; in three weeks they
would have ninety dollars; he him,
self would agree to add ten dollars
to his share, making a hundred dol.

"Yes," said Butch. "But vel

make the rule now that any man

hind the cottage where we got this
stuff" said Butch.
"All right" said Snick. "I'm not
afraid"
"Ill go with you," Butch an
swered.
They came back with the boat,
loaded to the gunwales. In half a
dozen trips the gang managed to re-
move everything in the cottage.
The exploit # furnishing the boat
house fed some latent strain of piracy
in Butch's blood. He announced
that he knew of a shanty boat up
the river that could be bought for
$75. If any other member of the
gang had mentioned such a sum with
familiarity they would have laughed.
But Butch was not to be laughed at.
! They sat silent and uncomfortable,
each waiting for another member to
speak.
"Well," said Snick, what would
we do with shanty boat?"
Float down the river in it, you
fat-head. We could go down to the
Ohio, down to the Mississippi, down
to New Orleans"
The gang-they numbered a dozen
now-considered this prospect with
out enthusiasm. They were instantly
aware that they had mothers and
homes and three meals a day. But
no one quite dared to speak Of these
things in Butch's presence.
"What'd we live on?" asked Snick.
"The country" Butch answered.
The ducks begin to fly pretty soon !;
the woods along the Wabash are full
of rabbits and squirrels, and down
South there's wild turkeys and deer
and"-here Butch bear"
The gang stirred uneasily. Bill
felt that the prospect Butch held out
was Immensely alluring. But he
could not see himself enjoying it.
He was an orphan and lived with his
grandfather Sheldon, who had a
hardware store in Sloan. He wasn't
sure that being an orphan made it
any easier to run away.
I've got job carrying papers"
II
EVERYBODY turned to look at the
speaker. 1t was Erny Baker.
Everybody sneaked glance at Butch
to see how he was taking it. The
sense of the meeting was beginning
to make itself felt.
"We'd look nice if they caught u.s.
Silver Kennedy said with a laugh.
Nobody needed to ask who "they''
were.
The boathouse was lighted by a
single lantern that swung above
Butch's head; the lantern swayed
slightly, casting eerie shadows; off in
the woods outside screech owl
gave its weird cali. For a long
minute nobody spoke word. Every
boy in the room remembered that he
would be late for supper. OFF in a
New-York tribune., 1921-02-20

the next morning we've gone down
the river. If we steal it they may
not find out we've taken it for a
week, And by that time we'll be
tied up down on the Ohio where
they'll never find US"
I'm game" Bill said. He tried
to make his voice sound firm.
They agreed to slip out the follow
ing night. after everybody was in
bed, and start down the river. Butch
enjoined each of them not to leave a
note
Pm going to write one to my
father" he explained, "and drop it
IN the postoffice so he'll get it an
hour or TWO after he finds Pm gone.
III say that we're going to ride the
blind baggage to Chicago. They'll
telegraph the police in Chicago, and
while they're trying to find US in Chi
cago well be on our way down the
river. Well get three days start
clear-maybe a week"
* f
FHE next evening Bill left Snick
Tiedeman at the corner.
"Tm going to catch up with
ldary," he said. "I'll see you later"
He and Mary walked down to her
house and started back toward the
school. They passed Snick on the
way. When they reached the
school, they started back toward
Mary's house. Bill didn't say much,
and gradually Mary fell silent. 1t
was dark when they finished the
:hird round. Bill wanted to kiss
her, but he never had kissed her
he had never kissed any girl; he
had only just passed into that age
wren it is reasonable for q boy to
want to kiss a girl. They stood a
long time under the maple tree at
The corner of the Parker lot. The
windows of the Parker house were
yellow squares Of light. Bill looked
down the street. They stood, their
shoulders touching, in the dark
shadow of the maple tree. The
masses of the trees on either side
Of the street were like a doorway,
family outlined against the light of
the arc-lamp three blocks away.
BilPs arm went around her waist.
In another moment he would have
kissed her. But he die not have
another moment. Down the quiet
street came hoy's whistle, the
shrill whistle that is only made by
putting two fingers in your mouth
he whistle that is the most insistent
OF all human calls, the whistle that
is warning.
Bill shivered and dropped his
arm.
Il guess I'd better be going" he
whispered, and was off. 1t was
Snick Tiedeman's whistle. Bill
knew what it meant, before he
reached Snick.
They've caught Butch and Red. -

and three of the others ripped a

up the river and took 90 rifle, an
AK and all the pots and pans. When
these had been installed in the boat
house Butch announced they must
have boat. The rest admitted that
a boathouse without boat was an
anomaly.
"Ill get a boat, if anybody knows

himself. His grandfather Sheldon
had not mentioned the loss of the
twenty-dollar bill, and it was now
too late to trace it to him.
At the end of the third week
Butch counted up eighty dollars.
"Fellows," he said, at isn't safe
to wait. / say we steal the shanty

Weldon.
"If we buy it everybody'll know
