Milford is to be given an oppor-
tunity to become a Friendly Town"
in a short time. By that is meant
that Milford has been selected along
with four hundred or more other
towns to be place where children
from the tenaments of New York
City are given their first glimpse,
in many cases, of green and grow
ing things, that we take as a mat
ter of course. A Fresh Air Fund,
sponsored for many years by a large
New York paper, makes it possible
for thousands of children, who live
in such narrow confines of life to
have vacation and to know that
there is more besides brick walls,
pavements and crowded living quar-
ters. A local committee, of which
Mrs. Bayard Wharton is chairman,
will work with the Fresh Air Fund
to place these less fortunate in
homes in or near town for a period
of two weeks. The time for their
visit will be the last two weeks in
July. They come to your home
cost to you. Your only OBJ
legation will be to shelter and feed
them and make their stay with you
a happy one. Special attention will
have been given to their health re-
quirements before they leave New
York City, so that they come to you,
not as invalids, nor cripples in any
way, but as normal healthy children
seeking vacation from their
crowded eXistances and a breath of
new. Will you be one to
phone Mrs. Wharton and say you
Will mother one or more of these
girls and boys for two weeks?

the average price at which milk
from the Holfsmeier dairy was sold
while she was on test, the amount
of milk Mary Lucille Bess produced
in the 305 days was worth $860.44.
Mary Lucille Bess was bred by
Herman Rolfsmeier and several of
the animals in the first two genera

breaking two Jersey world records
for production in her age class, 305-
day official tests, Mary Lucille Bess,
a senior 2-year-Old Jersey COW own
ed by Herman and Paul Solfmeier,

pounds of butterfat, 1926 pounds of
milk in 305 days.
With her milk yield of 1926

quarts, she exceeds by more than
1000 pounds the world milk record
for senior 2-year-old, 305-day tests
made by Ferns Fair Adelaide tested
by Clawson Y. Cannon, Provo, Utah.
At the same time, with her butter

TI0N CLUB STARTS A
KITCHEN CONTEST

The kitchen contests that are
starting in Kent County among the
various clubs, starts with their first
meeting at Millwood, on Wednesday,
July 1st, 1880 p. m. The project of
Encouragement of kitchens is of
more than usual interest, not only
to the housewives but to the hus-
bands as well as there are so many
things that the husband can do to
help make more convenient kitch-
en-, such as putting in a shelf or
two or putting a window where ex-
ira light is needed. 1t is very graf
flying to the county leaders in the
other counties at the enthusiasm
that the husbands are showing for
this project. There is no place in
the home where the different men,
bers spend as much of their time as
in the kitchen, and it is very neces-
sary that it be made as attractive
and CHEEKY as can be made. These
meetings are not only for the mem
bers of the club but Miss Whit

men from all the surrounding
homes. The subject of the meeting
