MANY PERSONS SEEM. TO
WANT BACTERIA In MILK

The Robinson Ice Cream Co. has
found that it is impossible to
please everybody. In the last few
days the company has lost four
milk customers, all because the
milk test shows such small NUM-
Der Of bacteria.
It seems that many people are
of the opinion that the presence OF.
bacteria indicates clean milk. It
seems astonishing but is nevertte-
less true that some of the dairy
men themselves have made this
mistake.
The presence of bacteria indi-
Gates that the milk is dirty. but not
necessarily disease producing be-
cause most of the hundred or NOR
varieties of bacteria are not dis

which is composed of Illinois, In
diana, Ohio and Western Pennsyl-
yania, OF with operators from any
group Of districts producing an
equivalent in coal tonnage.
Formal invitation to coal opera
tors has not as yet been extended
and consequently their attitude on
the proposition cannot be learned.
Heretofore coal operators had fear
of Judge Anderson hauling them in
to federal court on contempt
charges, which grew out of confer
ence in former years in which wage
scales were fixed.
The government will call the con-
ference on the basis of public en-
Urgency which is a new wrinkle ana
it is not very lifely that a federal
court will prosecute private citizens
who obey summons from another
branch of the government.
There is also a possibility tnat
after a settlement is affected the

Technical phases of the question
will rot be entered into, as II Is
generally realized that a confer

the operators acquiesced to the
meeting rather than desiring to
fight it out with the miners and
force them to make thirty-five ais
trict agreements instead of estab'
fishing basic wage Scale In the
Central Competitive Field.
j Both sides have suffered since
the etrike started April 1, and the
recent war in the mining sections
of Illinois has been one of the
events that has fastened the pro-
posed conference. Reports lndf-
cate that the operators efforts have
not been as effective in making IN
roads as they had hoped. In Ger
tain non-union Fields. a gam OF 81
900 members is noted by the union
as a direct result of the notices
posted by operators reducing

The miners union is reported tc
