COUNTY MILK POOL
 BELIEVED ASSURED
Modern Marketing Plan Fa- vorably Received by Dairy
 men and Producers

Announcement was made yesterday by J. L. Lilies, county agricultural agent in charge of dairying, that a milk pool for Jefferson county is assured with the health department placing its seal of approval on the plant and sufficient dairymen already signed up to include the product of 5000 cows.
 Information that dairy pool is being formed here has spread all over the state with the result that dele- gation of dairymen from Calhoun county. under the direction of H. q. Snellings. county agent. will be here tomorrow to inspect some of the dairies in the county. Anniston IS considering steps to establish a milk pool and Montgomery and Mobile are expected to fall in line. Selma now has two creameries and dairy prod ucts are shipped in abundance.
 In a statement issued yesterday by L. c. Bulmer. chief of the division of food and dairy inspection. and ap- proved by Dr. J. D. Bowling, health officer, he points out that milk pass- ing daily through centralized plant as will be provided by the milk pool can Wore easily be inspected and the health of the community more satls- factorily safeguarded.
 "A city milk supply passing daily through centralized plant" said Bulmer, can be more easily con trolled and better safeguarded. than in the case of numerous score of small distributors converging to the city. daily from. different sources. A milk borne epidemic is the bugbear confronting city with scattered in- dividaal milk distribution. There is no trade or profession without its stplack sheep and none in which the delinquences of few are more fruit ful of harm to the many than that of the milk trade.
 There Is after all very real com munity of interest between all who have anything to do with milk, for the consumer Is anxious to obtain pure, rich milk, the producer desires to secure steady demand and a fair price for his product, the distributors aim is to extend his business and the object of the health official is to produce a plentiful supply of clean milk, not only for the purpose of pre- tecting the public health. but also m order that the consumer may be ad- vised to use more of it for healths sake.
 Tt Is clear. therefore. that the projects of all are intimately as- sociated and if it be asked if the present scheme on foot in Birmine . ham to establish a centralized milk pool is the surest and quickest way to attain the common goal we may safely answer that it is, if properly organized" Advantages of the milk pool as enumerated by Bulmer in- clude standardized product. smart delivery, easier advertising and cheaper milk for the city.
 While in Birmingham the Calhoun county dairymen will visit the show herd of Bob Bell on Tuesday. Bell. who lives on Route T. has a fine herd of registered Jersey cows which have won a number of prizes and are said to be the finest in the state.
 County Agent Lilies stated that within one week plans will be on fo t for the establishment of the central plant for the milk pool. He expects other dairymen to join the pool dur ing the coming week.

Technically he is being held solely on the Injunction large while the state charges are held in abeyance. Winter is charged with complicity in the whipping and rob ping of W.

prevented the state authorities
from functioning properly by rea-
son of the Interpretation which has
been placed upon the obnoxious
sections which we ask to have
amended.
The tendency is more and more
towards concentration of authority
at Washington. The concentration
of population in larger cities is
becoming alarming, and President
Harding pointed out in his last mes
sage to Congress that the present
method of rate making, favoring
the larger cities, was one of the
reasons why the rural districts are
being depopulated and the cities are
growing larger.
There is one thing in this govern
ment of ours that we can always
depend upon, and that is the second
and sober thought of the farmer
and small-town people. They are
the stabilizing influence of the ma
ton, and upon them can always be
depended the safety Of the govern
ment. They are at home ploughing,
seeding and reaping, far away from
the strikes and riots, and their
judgment upon matters is mature
and deliberate. It is as representa-
tives of these farmers and small
town people, largely, that we come
before you and ask you to take the
necessary action for their relief"

lie Service Commission of Nevada

COMESTOCK MAN DEAD
IN CARSON SPRINGS

In the midst of revelry at Carson
Hot Springs in this city last night,
Calvert Gallagher, native Virginia
City man, was found dead in the
large plunge.
A coroner's jury, composed of
E. T. Clyde, w. H. Muldoon, and
C. ]. Davenport, returned verdict
of accidental drowning after an in
quest this afternoon.
Evidence brought out at the in
quest this afternoon disclosed that
he had arrived with a party of
Virginia City people at the springs
in the evening and a short time
later went into the plunge with his
companions.
After swimming for some time
the companions were at one end OF
the tank and it was believed by
them they said, that Gallagher had
gone to his dressing room.
He was found in the pool about
five minutes after he was thought
to have left.-Appeal.

down q foot o. two away, telling 1t to

Commission. An examiner was sent
to Des Moines from Virginia and at
that hearing the railroad witnesses
admitted that they had no COM
plant from Omaha, st. Joe or
from Austin, as to determinations,
or any evidence that it had affected
these cities or any individual in
the least. Therefore, being an in
terstate matter, the people Of Iowa
are wondering just what the Inter-
state Commerce Commission has to
do about it.
Senator Cummins, of my state,
chairman Of the Interstate COM
merce Committee of the Senate, and
one of the authors of the Esch-Cum-
minis bill, has told us repeatedly
that it was not the intention to
take from the states this authority,
but regardless of all this, it has
been taken from the states, and
people will be obliged to come long
distances, spend much valuable time,
and large sums of money, to present
in many cases trivial matters to a
far away overworked body of men,
i'll informed as to local conditions.
The most prosperous period of
the railroads was during the time
that the state commissions were
functioning fully, and it seems to
me that the carriers are indeed
me tina the carriers are indeed
very short-sighted in endeavorins
to remove from the states the
authority that has never been dis
puted since their inception until
the passage of Esch-Cummins act.
Public opinion demands that these
powers be restored and that section
15a be repealed as whole. .
The railroads have scattered prop
uganda throughout the United
States, complaining to the public
that they are regulated by forty
eight state commissions and the In
IClotdlC OOilHlCiCC SOIuIiiloSiOu
Their statements on the face of
them are unfair, and misleading, be-
cause there isn't any railroad regu-
lated by forty-eight commissions,
and no one railroad runs through
more than a few states.
We may as well realize that all
the affairs of this great nation can
not be conducted from Washington
satisfactorily. If all the power is
to emanate from the federal govern
ment then the capitol should be
moved to the great central west,
saving valuable time and expense
for the people to bring their
troubles to one head. -
l am citing these occurrences
merely as illustrations as to why a
governmental body, located at Wash
ington, cannot successfully or intel
ligently handle all the details of
transportation in this great country
of ours. We have shown during
this hearing that the interferences
of the. Interstate Commerce Com
mission under the Esch-Cummins
act in purely interstate affairs has
created chaos, caused great dissatis-
faction among shippers, and has

Allegheny ana western.

Investments that are well secured and
offer chances of appreciation in prices
can be found among guaranteed stocks
of large railroads. Several years ago
guaranteed railroad stocks were consid-
ereds prime investments and the most
desirable issues sold considerably high
er than they do now. Many investment
authorities believe that the day OF "a
big market for railroad guaranteed
stocks will return. particularly as they
arc exempt from normal Federal income
taxes. An issue that has a rating as
high as a bond Is the Allegheny and
Western Railways guaranteed stock.
That company was formed In 1898 and
taken over In 1900 by the Buffalo, Ro-
chester and Pittsburgh Railway, which
guarantees its dividends at the rate OF
8 per cent. a year. The stock can be
purchased to yield about 5.7f per cent.
