The one great universal food is milk.
1t is large part of the diet of every
household.
No less than 4O,OO0,O00,000 quarts a
year are used in the United States.
If you live in the city, it means that
the average journey your milk takes
from the COW to your table is 60 miles.
For your protection it is essential
that you know what kind of milk you
get at the end of the journey 1t
must be kept clean, cold and covered
throughout the trip.
You can have, entirely free, book
let crammed full of knowledge on
this subject, written by famous au.
thority on milk To obtain it-and no
one can afford to be ignorant on this
subject-just fill out and mail the cou.

SMALL supply And
LARGE Mill DEMAND
OFFSET TO DECLINE
CBy Associated Hress1

CHICAGO. Jan. 14--Although the
fall of the French cabinet was fol-
lowed by a decline this week, better
domestic milling demand and a pros
pective reduction of the United States
visible supply have largely acted as
an offset compared with a week ago.
Wheat this morning varied from q
cent lower to % cent advance. corn
was "a cent off to Is cent up. and
oats showed gains of 1s@H cent to
u cent. In provisions, the week
brought rise varying from 50 cents
to $142.
1t was generally assured at first
that the sudden change in the French
government might mean considerable
uncertainty and delay in grain bust
ness with Europe Later, however
this view was modified and wheat
traders again took greater interest in
ordinary market factors than in for.
eign political conditions.
Values Increased
Bearish estimates of the Argentine
Eexportable surplus counted at one time
lsas a weight on values, and so. too, did
rains in Kansas and elsewhere south
west and false reports of bank trou
bles in France. On the other hand
buying of wheat for Russian relief
and the absorption of so-called dis
tressed holdings of flour opened thu
way apparently for a better demand
from millers. Decreased primary re
ceipts of wheat gave some basis, too
for predictions of smaller visible sup
ply figures.
Corn was steadied in price by ar
| active demand from the seaboard
! Meanwhile the south and southeas
| gave signs of wanting oats
Provisions reflected up turns in the
| value of hogs.

CHICAGO, Jan. 14.-Wheat was gen
orally dull and lower today. with a
brief rally near the close. Locals sold
rather freely during the morning, but
some of them evened up over the
weekend and caused prices to advance
10 the high of the day. Liverpool and
Argentine markets were lower. The
report of cargo of Argentine wheat
being offered at s1.2O at the gulf had
no effect and therefore was not gen
orally credited There was nothing
definite on export and nothing was re-
ported.
Corn worked within very narrow
margin today, with little interest
shown. The market was lower all day
until within a few minutes of the close
when prices reacted to the top. Cash
one-fourth to one-half lower.
Trade was very light and without
feature, prices rejecting in mild
way the action of other grains. Cash
market easy to one-fourth lower.

Hydrophobia infection in dogs is more
prevalent now than ever before. The
distribution is widespread, but rela-
lively greater wherever the dog pop
ulation is high Hot weather has
nothing to do with its increase-dog
days have no influence on it. Records
at the State Board of Health Labora-
tory show Tat the disease was more
prevalent in April and May and in Oc-
tober and November than in the sum-
mer months.
Your dog is in constant danger of
exposure. If he is bitten by mad
dog, you are not only almost certain
to lose him, but you may also be in
directly resnons!.~!a for the safety of

This is intended as a timely warn
ing and not to cause undue alarm. Hy-
drophobia in dogs is like many other
animal and human infectious diseases,
in the respect that once it gains head
way it spreads very rapidly. 1t is the
prediction of the State Board of
Health that, unless immediate and
effective measures are undertaken,
the infection is going to become more
and more severe, month by I,0nth,
until we will be forced to kill or con-
fine every dog in the State in order
to protect our children, ourselves and
our livestock.
Mr.. Citizen, for the sake of your
children, your fine pets and your prop
erty, respond to this appeal by writing
to your State Board of Health. You
will receive prompt reply and will be
told what to do. A bulletin on HOW
TO HANDLE MAD DOGS will be sent
you on condition that you read it and
spread the information among your
neighbors.
