ending February IA should have
been set aside as anniversary week.

ell, because of the lack of funds,
the event has been fittingly cele-

sisted of speeches and the singing
of scout songs. All scouts are wear
ing their uniforms this week in
honor of the event.

Eighty-five per cent. OF the liquor

ing to an analysis made public yester-
day by the Anti-Saloon League. Orville

In records and for other reasons, but 1t
Is estimated that any discrepancy will
not exceed 5 per cent. in them, or per
cent. in the Federal courts.
The figures show that there were
3,043 indictments for violations of the
prohibitory laws in the State courts

a total of 67S6 prohibition cases in the
State. At the close of the year the
State courts had 1925 undisposed OF
and the Federal courts 1.255. a total
of 1851. leaving 4.205 disposed of In the
year. OF these 3.525 defendants were
convicted and paid fines amounting to
$4S5.SS3. and those sent to Jail already
have served total time of forty-five
years, nine months and twenty-six
days. The fines were approximately
divided as follows: State courts. $213.-
900, and Federal courts, $4,000.

City, State and Federal au-

Something you should know
about men and milk

Every farm is clean. All the
cows are inspected regularly.
Every inch Of the path Of milk
from the COW to your table is
guarded with a care that could
not comefrom dollars-and-cents
interest alone. True enough,
sound business reasons impel
the farmers to do this, but they
are also moved by their ambi-
ton to produce the best dairy
products.
Most Of the milk sold in New
York City is produced by the
farmers Of the Dairymen's
League Cooperative Associa-
ton, Inc.
So if you buy from any Of the
dealers in the following list,
then you may be sure that you
