MILK-PERFECT FOOD
COMMON SENSE WAYS TO KEEP WELL

the body. Too much acid forming
food is undesirable.
While milk may be called a perfect
food, having in its makeup many
valuable food substances, it would
not be a we~ll-balanced ration for the
adult TO take as a continuous diet.
1t should be used to supplement
other foods. 1t would be necessary
to drink three or four quarts daily
to get the proper amount of fuel for
the body furnace, which would give
an excess of protein or tissue-build-
ing properties and would also prob
ably overtax the kidneys with an
excess of fluid.
Again the taking of only a mode
rate amount of milk as a sole food
for the adult would bring about a
loss in weight in the average person
owing to deficient food value.
Bread and butter and potatoes
easily restore the balance so that
milk can be made substantial though
not the sole reliance in the dietary
of the average healthy person.
Buttermilk is a digestible and
healthful food. 1t is whole mill
soured by special strains of Tactic
acid bacilli and is often of service in
cases of chronic intestinal trouble oil
acute disease which requires ar
| easily digestible food.

OUEZON CALLS MEETING
WITH HARDING TRIUMPH

Philippine question Is settled.
/ urged upon President Harding
that the status of the islands be fixed
at the earliest possible date.
/ pointed out that lengtnening the
present condition of uncertainty can
have nothing but an evil effect on
internal political conditions in the
islands.
And I expressed my conviction
that Americas position in the Orient
will be much strengthened IL the
United States will adopt a firm and
permanent policy toward the Philip
pines.
General Wood will take office over
an open-minded people. His pre-
eminent fitness for office is not ques-
.tioned by any thinking Filipino.
However, the necessity of appoint
ing any American as chief executive
of the Islands will be questioned by
every thinking citizen.
1t is not that we question Ameri-
cas- motives. This question never
has arisen. America has proved her
self our champion and we love her
for II.
Even II we secure independence,
there will be no break with America.
We want her friendship and always
want to demonstrate our friendship
for her.
We are looking forward to even
tual independence. Meanwhile the
results of my visit to Washington
are highly satisfactory to me and,
| am sure, the whole Philippine peo-
ple.

President of the Philippine Senate

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-As I
leave the United States for home. 1
look back on my conference with
President Harding as n of the
greatest triumphs of my career.
1 am now able to go back to my
people and tell them:
That in no case will the United
States pursue a backward or reac-
tionary policy in dealing with the
Philippines.
That no radical changes in legisla-
ton are planned.
That President Harding aims to
keep administration of the islands
fully consistent with the est inter-
ests Of the Philippine people.
OF course. the great national aim
of our people is complete and abso-
Lutte independence. / shall have TO
tell my people that President Hard
ing was unwilling to discuss inde-
pendence with me because he had
not received official reports from his
commissioners. General Wood and
Former Governor Forbes.
But our desire for independence Is
nevertheless still alive and will re-
main so.
/ expressed to President Harding
my belief that Philippine i~ndepend.
ence would be the most powerful
factor conceivable for future world
peace.

actually an impossibility until the

quarters In Chicago. Chairman Gu
gene Meyer Jr., of the War Finance
Corporation Board, reviewed very
thoroughly his recent trip through
the various agricultural and live
stock cities.
He showed a very comprehensive
draft Of the needs of the situation
and was particularly impressed with
the emergency confronting i've
stock producers.
No Loan Limit
There is no limit, either minimum
or maximum, as to the amount or
the loan. The interest rate to the
War Finance Corporation is placed
at 6 per cent and the local bank Is
allowed a commission of not to ex-
coed 2 per cent. Loans up to twelve
months are accepted with provisions
for two subsequent renewals.
The officers of the American
Farm Bureau Federation are very
hopeful of the alternating POSSIBLE
tiles of this act.
While they do not consider it as
permanent and believe that the
farmer must not slack in his effort
for an adequate and permanent H.
nance policy, they do not consider
the War Finance Corporation funds
of very great benefit in the present
emergency and are urging the farm
ers and local bankers of h agri-
cultural communities to make the
utmost use of it.

1 journeyed in the Land of the Big
Red Apple, where they raise fruit as
delicious as that with which Eve
tempted Adam. For Eve knew her
business and the Apple is some fruit.
And l saw the trees laden with fruit,
and the ground beneath them grow
ing green with Alfalfa.
And 1 asked, whence cometh the
water, with which these trees are
nourished? For the clouds drop not
their rain. neither is there melting
snow upon the distant hills.
And they showed me a deep well
that went down an hundred cubits.
And at the bottom l saw an Engine
that worked with electric power. and
rested not day nor night.
And the engine lifted the water in
a mighty stream so strong that
when it reached the surface they
had to hurl 1t against a wall. and
divide it into smaller streams lest 1t
tear up the very ground. And the
watar flowed unto many orchards
and Vstered the trees.

Milk has been called by many
scientists the perfect food for man.
1t is an excellent food for minute
organisms or germs. some of which
are good and some bad. No matter
how we try. some of these germs
may possibly get into the milk be-
fore it reaches the consumer. with
the result that the person drinking
it is introducing harmful bacteria
into his system.
One scientist. Professor Milton j.
Rosenau, of the worlds greatest
public health administrators, has
made the startling statement that
milk is responsible for more sick
ness than all other foods combined.
But thanks to another great scien-
tist, Pasteur. a process of disinfec-
ing milk called pasteurization, kills
all these bacteria and make it the
perfect food. Raw milk, which Is
the form in which most of us drink
our milk, is often liable to contain
some harmful bacteria. but pasteur-
lied milk is absolutely safe.
AS milk balances perfectly midway
between acid and alkaline, 1t can be
classified as a purely neutral food,
while meats. so much o freely
used by adults, are acid forming in

Federation

Plans for the distribution of the
billion dollar fund made available
for the financing Of American agri-
culture through the War Finance
corporation are being rapidly per-
fected.
The War Finance Corporation has
set up the principal cities of the
country agricultural and live stock
loan agencies consisting of commit
tees of fire or more men usually at
least three who are banker residents
Of the central city, and the other
members of contingent territory.
The purpose of these agricultural
loan agencies is to receive and pass
upon loans from the local banks or
cooperative associations within
their territory. If the loan is ap-
proved by the agricultural loan
agency, they pass it on to the War
Finance Corporation for final con-
s%ideration, following which, If ia
vorable, the funds are Immediately
placed at the disposal Of the local
bank or cooperative association
making application for the loan.
The farmer thus gets his direct
benefit through his local bank or
cooperative organization.

0ENOUGH

I do not love the income tax,
l never am prepared to pay 1t,
My peace OF mind it greatly racks
That I can't dodge it or delay it.
It's always due when 1 am broke.
With screams of agony 1 greet it
I have to put my watch in soak
to meet it.
1t is a ghost at every feast.
1t dulls the edge of my successes
For when my earnings are increased
The income tax more f~iercels
presses;
I curse with voice that's like a rasr
The cost Of running this here ma

I'm full of rancor and exasp-

And vet, when I consider how
This country, on the whole is far

I smooth the wrinkles from my

The tax may be too high a charge
But as 1 view the rest of earth, it
Appears my country. by and large,

BOUNDARIES

Honduras, Guatemala and Salvador cease to exist in
their old governmental form. They merge into the Central
Federation, governed by a provisional federal
council, much as our states are amalgamated into the United
States.
As time goes on, other international boundaries will
disappear. The world will be united into one country, a
United States of the World. That is the sure way to end
war. You and I will not live to see it.

Interesting Sidelight
on Maine Rapid Transit
Before Days of Railroad

To start from Augusta in the morn
ing by automobile, motor to Bangor
and return again in time for supper
does not mean anything out of the or
binary today. Yet only SIS years ago
in the lifetime of many of our elder
" Northumberland to the Queen
City consumed nearly &c hours and
was accomplished behind sturdy
horses in real old-time stage coaches
An advertising bill. dated Dec. >,
1885, and signed by J. H. Folsom,
Agent, at Waterville, hangs in the
foyer of the Augusta House and
throws an interesting sidelight -
rapid transit four and onc-half de-
cades ago-which was 16 years before
the first railroad train left Augusta
in ISL
The bill announced the opening of
a new stage line between Bangor and
Waterville, running three times q
week and going via Carmel, Newport
Palmyra. Pittsfeld and Clinton to
Wateryille. where it intersected the
Winthrop and Portland back stage
route, and also the Augusta. Halo
well and Gardiner stage. The return
stage to Bangor left Naterville at
about A. NJ, after the arrival of
the coach from Augusta. and reached
Bangor at about 5 T. NJ. Tho bill is
illustrated by a woodcut showing a
hugo stage-coach dashinS along be-
hind a team of four spirited white
horses.
The closing paragraphs Of the adj
vertisement contain the following
grave announcement: The proprie
tors of the abuve stages have, at
great expense and trouble. esta blshed
this line to accommodate the Portland
passengers. who viii find it much the
best easiest and cheapest route. They
have made every necessary arrange
ment for running them regularly and
permanently. and for this purpose
have provided good carriages, horses,
and careful drivers"
Particular care will be taken to
transmit with safety all goods. pack
ages and every kind of baggage proper
to be transported in stages. and no
exertions will be spared to make these
stages convenient to those who may
travel in them. and acceptable to the
public generally, and with the fulfill
ment of these assurances the proprie-
tors hope to insure fair proportion of
patronage"
