ANNAPOLIS, Md, March 26.-For
more than two hours yesterday the
House Committee On legislative grand
inquest heard the pro and con of the
Maryland milk situation as 1t affected
the farmers of the State and the Balti-
more City consumers at public meet
ing on a resolution calling for investi-
cation of the entire industry.
/. Marshall Heaps, secretary and &C
tive director of the Maryland State
Daiymen's Association, and George
Lindsay, attorney for the Western
Maryland Dairy Co., were the focal
points Of the dealers, while Delegates
Conway Of Baltimore City and Baldwin
OF Baltimore County led the attack.
Complete Inquiry Asked.
The hearing was on Delegate Con-
ways resolution, which called for q
complete inquiry into the association
and the distribution Of dairy products
in the city. At the hearing he pro-
duced letters from diSgruntled farmers
and milk producers and statements
showing the spread between the price
OF milk as paid the producing farmer
and as sold to the consumer.
The document also went into the
various charges levied on the farmers
by the dairymens association, from
the cent a gallon on milk delivered in
Baltimore and the half cent to the
county cooling stations, to the charges
made for cans and manufacture of
second grade milk.
Delegate Baldwin charged, and offer
ed to produce witnesses, that hun
dreds of farmers in this State want
to be free from the grasp Of this asso-
citation, which refused to let an In
dependent farmer sell milk except
through it,"
Mr.. Heaps defended his organization
and the retail price of milk by pro-
ducing figures to show that in Phila-
delphia, New York and some Of the
other larger cities Of the nation, the
price of milk was higher and that the
spread between the price paid to the
producer and the price paid by the con-
sumner was much greater than In Mary

A New Butcher Shop.

The introduction of what is known as

make a great innovation in the appear
ance of the butcher shop. In fact. that
establishment will undergo a complete
tra nsformation, and the de luxe butcher
shop has carpets, indirect lighting, easy
chairs, no chopping blocks, no scales,
no gore. no sawdust. It promises to
change the entire buying habits OF a
fsh-fowl-and-meat-consuming public,
which will soon be able to select its
cuts by looking at them in neatly ar
ranged rows far from the maddeninR
buzz Of flies and the hands Of the
butchers. Under the process of quick
freezing, meats are reduced to abnor-
maly low temperatures at packers
headquarters and are kept that way I'M
til they arrive at the retail outlet, where
they are placed Immediately under the
protection of great electrical refrigerat-
ing counters covered with glass. Meats
and fish lose none Of their food or
flavor qualities. because quick freezing
acts as a seal, which holds all food
qualities intact until the consumer is
ready TO cock the product In the new
meat store the attendants are neatly
uniformed women, who show the prod
ucts in their cellophane wrappers, so
