California Spotted Moray ls Capture

The California spotted moray, or

is credited with being the most fe-
rocious marine animal in existence.
The q COMMONLY observed. specimens
aresabout. three or four feet long, and
about the size Of mans wrist.
Their mouths are provided with
needle-like teeth, and their jaws are
so strong that cutting off the animals
head does not have the slightest effect
in releasing its hold. Release can
only be achieved by cutting the head
to pieces so that the jaws cannot hold
together.
Stories are told Of fishermen be.
ing driven, from their boats when a
large specimen got loose after being
hauled up, and these stories may cas-.
lily be credited, considering the dispo.
sition Of the small ones which are com.
mon to the California coast. Some OF
those found in the deeper water reach
a length Of six or eight feet, and a
weight Of 100 pounds. The animal
can actually tie itself in, a. knot, and

pweller in Cave.

Cave bears were great big beasts,
weighing half ton or more. They
lived in Europe during paleolithic
times, and were contemporaneous with
our ancestors. They get their name
from the fact that their bones are
usually found in caves. All bears, as
matter of fact, prefer den in some
rocky hole to live and die in.
Cave bears are all extinct now, but
their near relatives, the Siberian brown
bear and the Alaskan Kodiak bear, are
alive. Scientists were at loss as to
where to place these huge beasts until
they discovered Pleistocene affinities
for them. Although cave bear stood
as big as small COW, he was rela-
lively inoffensive. He preferred root
ing in the ground or robbing an occa-
sional bee tree to preying on animals
and men.

New Musical Instruments.

It has been said by musicians that
the violin family is composed Of two
pygmies-the violin and the viola
and two giants-the violoncello and
the double bass. It is reasonable to
suppose that the great gap between
these two extremes could be advan-
tageously diminished. It is not sur
prising, then, that two well-known
French musicians, father and son,
have, after years Of study and expert
mentation, created number of inter-
mediary instruments which have en-
tirely changed the nature Of the violin

new CHICAGO DAIRY
!. PLAN IS APPROVED
Based on Idea That the Producer
Is Entitled to One. Half What
the Consumer Pays.

The Illinois Agricultural association,
the Wisconsin Farm Bureau fedora
tioa, the Indiana Federation Of Farm
ers' Associations, and the Milk Pro
ducers' Cooperative Marketing COM
pany have approved the plan Of the
Committee of Nine on Chicago Dairy
Marketing appointed by e. b. Heaton
Of the American Farm Bureau feder-
alton. At the farm bureau meeting
In Chicago the plan was outlined in
detail by the committees chairman,
G. V. Gregory. The basis of the COM
mittee's plan is that the milk producer
is entitled to half Of the price which
the consumer pays for milk; in the
Chicago territory he now gets 80 per
cent. The plan provides for the re-
organization Of the Milk Producers
Cooperative Marketing company. The
new contract must have 1900 signers
by September 1, 1922. The farm bu-
reau will secure these.
sapiro o. k.'s Contract.
The committee retained Aaron Sa-
piro, noted cooperative attorney, to
help draft the contract and plan Of
operation.
The new contract, which Mr.. Sa-
piro says is the best milk contract in
the United States, provides for pooling
receipts from milk and othet dairy
products in four separate divisions, as
follows:
1. Fluid Milk Fund.
2. Condensed Milk Fund.
8. Cheese Fund.
4. Butter Fund.
The net average price received, in
each division for any given mouth for
milk Cor other products reduced to q
milk basis) will constitute the basic
pooled price In that division. The
first payment in all divisions, to be
made between the 21st and the 30th
Of the following month, will be the
basic pooled price in the lowest priced
division.
A month later each producer will
receive second payment made up as
follows:
l. Two-thirds Of the amount by
which the basic pooled price in his
division exceeds the basic pooled price
In the lowest priced division:
2. The other. one-third will 60 into
a general fund which will be dissrib-
uted pro rata to all producers.
Pro rata deductions will be made
for overhead expenses, and 8 per
cent deduction will also be made
from each producers check for an
insurance and working capital fund.
After this; fund reaches specified
size, further deductions will be used
to pay back the producers who nrst
contributed to it.
> Tho Operations Committee.
II order to safeguard the interets
Of the. producers,:who sign contracts,
an opera tons committee is to be
created which will keep check on
the business methods and overhead
expenses Of the company. The terri.
tory will be divided into nine districts,
each containing as nearly as possible
an equal number of contracting pro-
ducers.- The producers in each district
will elect representative on the oper-
atoms committee.
The committees plan also includes
the formation of local associations as
rapidly as possible to build and own
small receiving plants.

UNION DENTISTS
THE UNION MAKES GOOD


Dentistry by skilled operators in a modernlv eouin-
ped office CAN BE DONE at moderate prices There
was time in the history of the profession when it
took man many hours to prepare and fill a cavity
His engine which is by electricity was then
propelled by foot power The laboratory motor with
its sand-paper chucks, chsels and polishers was a
thing unknown. The work was done by hand and
man. to earn his daily bread must necessarily charge
large fees-not for his knowledge alone, but for the
long tedious hours involved But these things are
changed with one excepton-the price There are
still some dentists who feel that they have right to
take advantage of the lack of knowledge on the
part of the general public to the cost of the per-
torrance along the various lines of dental surgery
and charge large fees which the average patient can
i'll afford and they keenly resent practitioners who
have opinions to the contrary.
