DRUG DREAMS CALLED MYTH
Research Has Shown That Habitual
Users of Opiates Can Do No
Lasting Good Work.

The gulf between the songs of pop
pies that breathe of sleep, the golden
and green dragons, and the ecstatic
dreams that mark the literature" Of
drug addiction and the dismal side
of the vice which the police behold.
Is brought out in an article by DR..
Carlton Simon, who emphasizes in the
Scientific American the fact that
opium, hasheesh, cocaine, heroin.
morphine and the rest are far from
lyrical.
From the standpoint of the po-
lice" he writes, "all the romance OF
the songs and short stories is swept
away on the fumes Of a drug which
brings depression, poverty, despair,
and death" 1t has long been sus-
pected that the drug dream, as a
literary motif, was much overrated.
BY the time the addict Is able to write
of his visons-if he has them-after
n debauch, he is Ill and purposeless
and ready for another dose. For any
body by a DeQuincey a sniff Is In
spiration, enough for a drug poem or
tale. Go further, and the dreams van
Ish in loathsome reality.

COST OF MILK PRODUCTION
Dairymen Should Be Interested In
Knowing How Much Feed and
Labor Are Required.

Dairymen throughout the country
should be interested to know how
many pounds of grain, hay and silage,
and how many hours of labor 1t takes
TO produce 100 pounds of milk in the
different sections Of the United States.
The bureau of animal industry, United
States Department Of Agriculture, be-
gan series of studies in 1915 on
groups of dairy farms to obtain accu.
rate information Of this kind.
The results are shown for southeast
ern Louisiana in department bulletin
$50. The figures for northwestern In
diana are contained in department bull
letin S5S; North Carolina and western
Washington in department bulletin
919; and for Vermont in department
bulletin 923, which may be purchased
from the superintendent of documents,
Washington, D. c., at five cents the
copy. The various tables are based
upon figures obtained during two
year study, and weighted averages of
the records were used whenever they
would express the results more accu-
rately. The surveys include also an
inventory Of dairy buildings, live
stock, and equipment used.

CATS FOLLOW FISH DEALER
Animals of Sheepshead Bay Regular
iy Take the Trail of the Peddler
of Sea Food.

Like the pied piper, the Sheepshead
Bay fish dealer has a following of cats
as he pushes his cart through the res
idence section on Friday morning, says
the New York Sun. The cats for
blocks away hear his shrill cry OF
"Fresh fish !'' or perhaps smell his car
go and come slyly through the streets
for a chance at delectable bit Of sea
food.
When the fishman gets customer
he cleans and scales the fish on the
ground. This is the chance for the
neighborhood cats. Their part of the
feast consists of the discarded heads
and tails of f1uke and sea bass.
Obtaining a priced portion, most of
the cats break for home to enjoy the
repast, while others not so fortunate
hang on the peddler's heels and fol-
low him about until he finally makes
a sale and permits them to profit on
his loss.
