In relating the growth of the dairy
industry in this country. the depart

days each family kept its own cow.
i The denser the population became the
more important ii was to have a well
regulated and ample commercial sup

of cows increased, and in time a dairy
business grew up in various sections.
The development of modern methods
in the distribution Of milk, with eco

closely accompanied by the larger use

Cities have always used smaller
amount of milk in proportion to the

For example, Philadelphia reached the
rate of 23 gallons per capita in 1905.

are not kept and where modern meth

DISCOVER JOKER
IN NAVAL PACT
Article 19 of the Document
Is Withdrawn by the
Committee.
AIMED AT UNITED STATES
Believed Section Of Treaty Will Cause
More Trouble Than the Famous
Article K OF the League of
Nations.

Washington, Jan. 10.-Discovery OF
joker aimed at the United States
just as the technical and legal ex-
perts' draft of the five-power naval
treaty was being put into shape to be
nimecgraphed for distribution among
the delegates. caused Il sensation in
conference circles.
Article 10 of the document, which
contained the joker, instantly was with
drawn and the draft of the pact as
presented TO the delegates at a SEES
sion of the naval ornaments com
mittee now merely reads:
"Fortifcations. Resolved for fur
ther consideration"
These facts were obtained from an
American official of the conference.
He indicated belief that article 10
would give the conference more diff
hculty before final solution than the
famous article \ Of the League of Ma
lions gave the Wilson administration.
The language of the withdrawn
article 10, the American official states,
was capable of an Interpretation that
would have prohibited the United
States from sending aircraft to the
Philippines.
Section Was VoIuminous.
The part of the treaty In question
was rather volumnous. 1t was de-
signed to cover the agreement of the
five powers that the status of the
Notifications in the Pacific should be
maintained. 1t also undertook to de-
fine what Is a fertilization and what
Is not a fortified city.
American officials asserted that ow-
ing to the very nature of aircraft
their particular overhead actlvities-it
would be next to impossible to frame
formula of words that would cover
the question of air attacks on forti-
fed and unfOrtitied cities.
The American delegation met at the
State department TO go over the treaty
but mainly to work on substitute
for the withdrawn article 10.
The five power naval treaty will
