Milk contests conducted by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture have been highly beneficial
IN a number of western states, sufficiently so to give
the cue to local authorities where communities are
interested in the character of their milk supply.
The movement is so simple it can be put into
operation by the local health boards or the author
lied health doctor of any village.
Samples of milk supplied by different dealers are
taken occasionally without warning, bacterial
counts are taken, and the milk scores are then made
public in the columns of the home town newspaper.
1t is found milk dealers do not like to be sur
prised and dirty milk found on their wagons, par
ticularly when they know the results are to be
published.
We learn that in Long Beach, Calf, the average
bacterial count in the first contest was 1929. In
the last contest it was down to 1923. The milk
sold figured 7l.56 and after the last contest the
scale was raised to 90.67. 1t was the same in Los
Angeles and Riverside.
1t is quite evident that as soon as the surprise
milk contests become a recognized factor milk
dealers invariably improve their milk supply.
This means much to the child life of the nation.
The country generally would be better off if more
government money were spent in work of this char
acter and less in political log rolling.
This newspaper has persistently stood for the ex-
pepditures of government monies both locally and
in the state and nation aimed at lowering the death
rate.
The peoples monies should be spent for their
good. Advertising is the answer.

We shall have lower taxes when we have state,
county and school governments which find ways
and means to get along on less income-not before.
We shall have such economizing governments when
we have a public determined to enforce economy
upon its disbursers Of taxes-not before. We shall
have a public determined to enforce economy only
when it refuses to heed the appeal OF this or that
or the other group for this, or that, or the other i'm
provement or i~nnyation or service or whatever it is
that the public is persuaded it must have.
We need political leaders pledged to economy
and business efficiency in government, not political
"persuaders" seeking to put something new over
on the people, thus swelling the tax bill and Great
ing more ofices.-The Manufacturer.

tribute to the tariff, 700 per cent more than all the
tariff duties combined. Obviously, an increase in
retail prices of SS,0O0,000,0O0 cannot be charged
up against tariff duties which amount to only $780,
100000. 1t is the same story with which the farm
er and consumer are already familiar, an arbitrary
boosting of prices between the time goods leave the
producer and the time they reach the consumer, so
that the consumer is charged several hundred per
cent more for the goods than the producer was paid
for them.

While political questions have not been receiving
a great deal of attention in Morrow county, the can
didates are beginning to move about, and soon the
pot will be boiling. All candidates seem to be
pledged to tax reduction; promise to use their good
business sense in combating all bills and measures
that might possibly lead to an increase in the tax
burden, so whoever may succeed in winning out at
the polls we are assured at this stage of the game
that we shall have no further increase in tax bur
dens.
