New York the industrial balance pro-
vided in President Roosevelt's recovery
program will be factor in carrying it

Business, wage earners, industry,

The distribution of national income
Is a problem Of better balance" she
said. Our economic machine needs
balance just as much as any machine If
it is to function properly. The N. r. A.

a primer, provide the industrial bal
arce which should gradually effect re-
adjustment and recovery.

Arctic Flowering Plants

One curious difference between the
Arctic and Antarctic is in the flower
Ing plants found in each area. In the
regions round the South pole the
zstrictest search has failed to reveal
-Jmere than three or four kinds Of
Towering plants. The vegetation is
almost entirely composed Of lichens
and MOSES. The MOSES are indeed
remarkable, attaining a development
which is not to be seen elsewhere.
These plants. so insignificant with Us.
form immense clumps in the Antarctic
several feet high. During the long
winter the clumps freeze solid hut
the cold does not harm the moss in the
least, and during the few months when
the temperature is more genial it
grows with great vigor. In the Arctic
Circle at least 500 species of Towering
plants have been discovered, and it is
likely that there are many more.
Large areas within only a few hun
,dred miles of the North pole are
sahlaze with blossom during the brief
bit extremely bright summer.

Milk Regulations To
Go Into Effect Jan.

Continued from page u
ever be greatly reduced by careful
methods in milk handling, and the
new county regulations aim partic-
ularly to give the public as much
protection as possible in the raw
milk supply.
One may ask as there any way
of telling the quality of milk sup
ply by the Grade label on the bottle
cap?" If milk is marked Grade A.,
it indicates that the milk has been
carefully handled in approved equip
ment and is less likely to be infected
by hand contact than Grade B or
Grade c milk. Grading bears no
relationship to richness or butter fat
of milk. It is dependent entirely
on sanitation. After January /, 1884
all bottle caps in Montgomery Coun-
ty will show the Grade label. In the
suburban district of the county no
Grade B or Grade C milk may be
sold after January /, 1884, and in
the entire County these lower grades
may not be sold after January l.,
1885.
ITO sum up, milk regulations have
two essential purposes; to protect
the public against milk borne in
fictitious diseases, and to give the
public confidence in the milk supply.
The gaining of the public's confidence
IS almost as important health mat
,er as the safety of the milk, because
he public's confidence affects greatly
he amount of milk consumed and
his in turn affects the public's
lealth from the nutritional stand
Joint. Milk is one of the cheapest
orms of food and is considered as
mans most nearly perfect food.
milk consumption is of
.reat public health Importance. A
God standard of milk consumption
or a community to strive for is one
int Of milk per capita per day." Il
