friendly antagonists that he. Randolph,
was out for thick blood. If any one
of the five had joyed in the knowl-
edge that two slices, thin, of buttered
bread embracing silver of meat had
been named eternally after the earl
Of Sandwich on just such an epOchal
occasion as this. he would probably
have seen the high sign and beat 1t
for home and bed.
Night was fast joining the discard
when the weary Herbert dared to in
terrupt.
"Please, Mr.. Randolph, the officer
on the beat says the grass is lifting
your cab. sir. and he thought he
ought to report anything like that"
"Tell him to undo the check and let
It feed itself down again." growled Mr..
Randolph.

money to catch old. But Mr.. Ran
dolph had no occasion to do this. His
heap of chips and cash of the realm
rested on too solid base of its own.
There may be recorded AN amusing
diversion from the serious business In

fallen Herbert, who confessed that &C.
tual physical exhaustion had driven
him to forty winks, during which time
a professional purloiner of motOr-car
accessories had stopped, spellbound by
the gigantic sum registered on Mr.
Randolph's taximeter. had promptly
stolen the preposterous clock, and was
now on the club steps offering to set
tie with whoever was the interested
gent on fifty-fifty basis.

LARGE INCREASE IN
MILK AND PRODUCTS
Total Production in 1919 Is 1905, 23S,-
069 GallOns-Less Butter Made
on Farms.

WASHINGTON, Sept I2-The total
production of milk on farms in the
United States during the calendar year
1919, according TO The l4th census, was
sos, 23S $50 gallons. The estimated to-
tai production for 1909, as given in the
18th census reports, was 1,4Oo ,4O6,3S4 gal
ions.
In 1919 there were 707, 665. 1872 pounds
of butter made on farms in the United
States, as compared with 994 $50 SO
pounds in 1909, representing q decrease
of $50, 9S4 1lS pounds, or 1913 per cent.
This decrease Is mainly due to the fact
that the making OF butter is being rap
idly transferred from the farms to fac
tories.
There were six states in 1919 which
reported over 30,000,000 pounds of but
| ter made on farms, as follows: Texas.
40 405, l52 pounds; Pennsylvania 50, 46S,-

| pounds: Kentucky, 3i,0S0,4l5 pounds !;
Ohio, 3O,26426 pounds; and Georgia,
e, PSI ,I53 pounds.
| The quantity of cheese made on
| farms in 1919 was 6.371 500 pounds,
while in 1909 the farm production Of
cheese was 6405y864 pounds. There was
| thus Il decrease of 1904, 468 pounds, or
| 1913 per cent during the decade. Only a
| very small per cent of the total produc-
| ton of cheese A. made on farms.
There were 2,529,30S,G3S gallons OF
| milk sold from farms in the United
States in 1919. against 1887 .255.s64 gal
| Ions in 1909. representing an increase Of

OF tie total farm production OF but
| ter in 1919 COZ ,6G6,492 pounds, 20I $50,
| 54i4 pounds, or 294 per cert, were re-
| ported as sold. The quantity of butter
| sold in 1903 was 4l5.0S0,4S9 pounds.
There was therefore decrease of 207.-
I 220,952 pounds in butter sold, or 1913
