Some Milk Facts given.
Farmer Badly Hurt,

Lake Geneva, Wis.-William Schultz,
dairy man living near here, is re-
covering from injuries received yes
terday when he attempted to run a
truck load of milk through a gauntlet
of irate farmers who gathered early
in the day at the local Borden plant
to present deliveries.
The local farmers at a series of
meetings last week decided not to de-
liver milk unless the former price of
$2.65 hundred pounds was restored
with contracts running for six months.
The distributors in the Chicago dis
trict have cut the price to $3.50.
Schultz, driving a heavy truck, at
tempted to run his load of milk to the
condensery, but the men on guard
stretched rope across the road with
the result that the Schultz truck was
overturned and he was injured.
The farmers who refuse to meet the
cut, and are attempting to prevent
others from selling at the new price,
are disposing OF their products to in
dependent dealers in this locality.

AIDING BERLIN IN FIGHTING FIRES

The claim Of F. R. Jones Of Berlin that fire apparatus from New Britain was prevented from going to Berlin to aid in controlling the blaze at his house until he secured a selectman 10 o. K. and make the call, unearths a type Of red tape that appears ridiculous in the face of an emergen- cy.
 According 10 Mir. Jones, eight minutes was lost in this manner and Chief Noble Of the New Britain department Is quoted as saying that had his apparatus arrived on the scene eight minutes earlier the fire loss could have been curbed consid- erably.
 Rules are rules, even if sometimes they are asinine and unnecessary. The thing to do Is to change them. The chances of the city losing $50 after making a run to Berlin are slight, ss it is incomprehcnsible that the authorities of the town would study economy 10 such an extent after a fire,

Death Of Thomas H, Ince, screen director, in the prime of life, re- moves one of the pioneers of good pictures from an activity that brought his name before millions of people.
 Before the days of Ince and Grit Gth directors of films were go far in the background that the public could not notice them.

 Caution of Police Chief Hart in checking up all available evidence against the person held in New York under suspicion of being the slayer Is commendable. If the evil dence does not check-up reasonably certain, resulting in failure to pro- vide case that would be airtight before jury, the chief and Prose- cutor Woods are entirely justified in going slow about it.

WOMEN HAVE HOME
 FOR POOR ANIMALS
Discorded Dogs, Cats, and Birds
 Find KanSan Refuge

Kansas City. Mo. Nov. 20.-- Out in the hills of Kansas, across the Missouri river from here and close by that stream, two lono women, Sarah H. and H. H. Jacobs, sisters, are making a sacrificial fight for friendleSs and suffering animals that is winning them world fame.
 These women, by stint and in dustry acquired a little home in the outlying district that is given over unsefishly and almost completely 70 housing discarded dogs, cats, birds and horses. and to spreading the gospel of humane cndeavor.
 In order 10 carry on their chosen work, II. II. Jacobs works as a bookkeeper going a dozen miles daily to her desk, while her sister, white. haired and frail, is house. keeper. In the 20 years since they began the enterprise, and 1t has been carried on solely through their own means and without mone- tary recompense, the Jasobs sisters have cared for hundreds of ani- mals, patiently nursing the sick back to strength and providing for the s'rays and disowned till good homes were found.
 In their community neighbors testify to friendly acts of these women that have touched human ills as we'll so there has been no criticism that unnecessary time and money were expended upon animals while youth went neg lected.
 Boys and girls. as well as grown ups, for miles around call regular ly at the Jacobs home for advice in caring for their pets. and the Misses Jacobs take advantage of the visits 10 drive home lessons in humane treatment and correct liv- Ing.
 One example of appreciation is the action of Governor P. P. BaX- ter, who caused the state house flag at Augusta, Me. to be dis played at half-mast when Garry, his Irish setter and faithful com panion, vas buried with seven Of his forebears. The Jacobs are proud Of Governor BaXter's friend ship, and display his photograph when the incident is related.
 Miss II. H. Jacobs, in speaking recently of their work, said: Gov ernor Baxter's photograph occupies a prominent position in a semi public room of our house. In the evening 1t has been the custom for the boys to come in and have a look al it. When a new boy comes. the older ones take the attitude Of proprietorship. That's him., they announce expressively. 'Cbappie' and Brownie and Pal come along in also, and it has bern decided that these dog companions of the
