Cottonwood Buds
and Dandelions to
Welcome New Year

III winter comes a spring be
far behind?"
II would seem that the query is
pertinent in Great Falls, at least,
where Dan Dawson has produced
bonafide evidence that "spring has
came" A branch of buds broken
from a cottonwood tree on n OF
the city b%ouievards was exhibited
by him at the city water plant Fri
day. A week of sunshine would
bring the buds into full leaf and In
mIdwinter they are more mature
than is usual in the early spring
months when the season Is cold.
If there were any who told
Dawson, "Aw, that's nothing" he
did not answer them with words,
but with what would seem proof
indisputabIe. A full blown dan
deIion blossom, found within a few
feet of the tree where the buds
were picked, was his proof con-
elusive that spring called in Great
Falls in the very middle of what
started out to be a hard winter.
Chinooks are great little things,
according to Dawson, who gives
them the credit for the phenomena.

Rabbits Now Safe

The greatest life insurance OF the
rabbit world in Delaware went into
effect on Saturday night, at 6o'clock
when the rabbit season closed. Many
of the gunners from Newark who
went out to catch the cotton tails
claim that the season closed the same
minute it opened, for they did not
see any rabbits. One local gunner
when talking Of the season stated
that he had been out several times
for rabbits but that if he had seen one
of the animals he would have been
ashamed to shoot it for it must have
been crazy or it wouldn't have been
in these parts.

MILK SUPPLY
IN TOWN COUNCIL

Continued from Page One.)
think that it was the proper thing for
the town to install pasteurizing
plant of its own.
Mayor Frazer in answer to this
stated that there was no local milk
dealer who was able to stand the ex-
pense of placing pasteurizing plant
here.
Councilman Beal stated that he
thought that some more economical
manner could be used to look after
the purity of the milk and said that
he thought that the Board of Health
should make an examination of the
milk and the source of the. milk
served here. Hes~ said that in this
manner all danger could probably be
eliminated with a much lower cost.
1t was pointed out by Mayor
Frazer that at the present time there
are about 200 quarts Of milk served
here every day.
The members of Council were Of
the opinion that it would not be a
profitable undertaking to attempt to
pasteurize this amount of milk at
only one cent quart.
That the Council should encourage
pasteurizing plant, was the opinion
of Councilman Wilson, but he said
that he. thought the Council should
keep it's hands off when it came to
financing the project.
Councilman Beal said he thought
that it would be good idea for the
Town Council to pay member of the
Board of Health to make regular in
spections of the milk, the milk bottles,
and the farms, from which the milk
comes.
The mayor said that he was of the
opinion that if man was paid to do
this work on twenty farms, from
which the towns milk supply comes,
that the expense would be as heavy as
the operating of pasteurizing plant.
That the sum of one cent a quaint
for the pasteurizing the milk was too
cheap was the opinion of Councilman
Colmery. He said that he thought
with the profit the milk dealers now
make on milk they could afford to
pay more than this amount.
Councilman Wilson said that he
thought Newark should be able to get
as pure milk as other towns it's size
which do not have pasteurizing
plants.
Councilman Colmery said that if
pasteurizing plant could be obtained
for from $4,000 to $25OO why not let
the milk dealers of the town and the
producers stand the expense of in
stallation.
The members of Council were of
the opinion that further data would
have to be obtained before anything
definite could be done in the matter
and with this in mind Council ad
journed until next Monday night.
Mayor Frazer and Councilman
Wilson were appointed committee to
look after the obtaining Of data for
a pasteurizing plant and they will re-
port back at the special meeting.
