In New England
Takes Sharp Drop

Wakefield. Mass. Aug. 30.-(P1-A
sharp decline in average daily milk
production per cow and a decline of
13 per cent in the number of milk
cows in New England was reported
tonight by the New England Crop
Reporting Service. Lower milk
prices, below average pasturage and
steady grain prices influenced the
drop in production. the report said.
The production per COW was still
IA per cent above the 1925 level, but
was compared with a five per cent
greater average on June l and rs
per cent greater average OF July l.
This now slight margin of increased
production over 1925 is greatly off
set by the herd shrinkage.
Vermont showed l per cent gain
in number of milk cows on August
1 from a year ago, but Maine declin-
ed Q? per cent. New Hampshire, 81
per cent. and Connecticut A per
cent, while the Massachusetts, total
was unchanged. A material i'm
provement of pastures with second
crop hay prospects was noted during
the past month.
Monthly purchases for July by the
larger Boston dealers. as reported by
the New England Milk Producers
Association. continued we'll above
pre- ious seasons although below the
June high. The net price of all milk
for July was s2.3S per hundred
pounds, as against s2.35 last year.

own investigation.
Although no statements were forth
coming from any of the investiga tors.
rumors and conjectures abounded,
contradicting one another at every
turn. Chief interest was in the Bass
mystery. All that Bass campaign
workers would say was that some
one had entered the office during the
night. breaking a pane of glass in
the door to gain an entrance, and
examining the papers in the filing
cabinet. They could not tell whether

gate it.
Attempts to get In touch with Bar
bour, who is described on his cards
as manager of the Community Pro-
lection Service of the William j.
Burns International Detective Agen-
cy, were futile. He has made no
statement since last night when he
declared that he was conducting
prohibition survey, which might lat

to other states. and declined to tell
by whom he was employed. This
statement was made in reply to
question as to whether or not be was

penditures, as had been rumored.
The investigation of Barbour's ac'

three senatorial candidates, Senator
Moses, former Governor Bass and
