Milk 
Prices paid producers by New York 
wholesalers range from 3% to four cents, 
net, for Class B pasteurized milk. Res¬ 
taurants using two to five cans per day 
are now paying jobbers 5}£ to six cents 
per quart. 
Health Commissioner Lederle, in a 
warning issued to the public September 
25, said the only way citizens of New 
York could be protected from disease 
transmitted through milk was to use 
grade “A” milk, or pasteurized milk, or 
milk brought to a boiling point. The 
present typhoid epidemic on the lower 
East Side, the commissioner said, would 
justify the department in insisting at the 
earliest possible time on the pasteuriza¬ 
tion of fill milk sold in this city except 
grade “A” milk, if the observations as to 
the cause of the outbreak was confirmed. 
The outbreak, he added, served as one 
more emphatic warning to the public of 
the risk that accompanied the drinking 
in this city of any raw milk except that 
of grade “A.” In the last four years, it 
was said, the department had increased 
from seven per cent to 50 per cent and 
over the proportion of pasteurized milk 
to the total supply consumed. 
The scarcity of milk in proportion to 
population seems to be world-wide. Re¬ 
ports from various parts of England tell 
the same story. Milk prices at the Lon¬ 
don railway stations have ranged from 
4S*4 cents to something over 60 cents for 
eight quarts, and in a few cases they 
reached S5 cents for this quantity. Eng¬ 
land, too, has Belgium, Holland and up¬ 
per France to draw upon, yet the price 
of milk is constantly rising. This is 
partly due. as is the case in this country, 
to increase of population; partly to 
greater demand for milk as food, and 
again to the restrictions which the health 
authorities are constantly putting upon 
milk production. Under rigid inspection 
more and more of the small dairymen 
who do not breed their own stock, are 
going out of business. The conditions 
are much the same in this country, and 
milk prices are sure to increase to the 
consumer. 
CO-OPERATIVE CALF RAISING. 
The contest now being waged over 
prices, between the creamerymau on one 
side and < the producer, backed by the 
Dairymen’s League, ou the other, will be 
of benefit even in the event of the pro¬ 
ducer failing to get what lie asks for. 
and is clearly entitled to. The problem 
of low-priced milk made from high-priced 
feed is not an easy one to work out and 
show a profit, and many producers no 
doubt, as is asserted, will throw up the 
sponge and quit. There is need of stock 
of some kind ou our farms, to consume 
the forage and convert it into manure, 
in order to stay the depreciation of the 
soil by constant cropping, yet no one 
right-mindedly would engage iu an occu¬ 
pation exploited in advance as a losing 
game. It does seem a pity an article 
so necessary as milk cannot command a 
price fair to the person who produces it. 
We have our farms, they need the fer¬ 
tility. and we need the monthly milk 
check. 
There has sprung up with us a new 
line of dairying; small farmers keeping a 
dozen cows or less are buying the young 
calves, as the cows in the community 
freshen, and feeding up their milk ou the i 
farm, thereby decreasing the milk supply 
and increasing the meat supply, in con¬ 
troversion of the statement that a meat 
famine is near. This plan could be car¬ 
ried a step farther to advantage. When 
the feeders have done their part and 
when the calves have reached, say. six 
weeks of age, auothej line of feeders 
could step up and buy the heifer calves' 
at the butcher’s price and rear them un¬ 
til near the milking age, when they could 
be sold at a handsome profit. Many a 
farm with a good pasture run, now carry¬ 
ing no stock, would be the better off 
working out this plan. Here also is a 
chance for co-operating so often heralded 
as the farmer’s panacea. Every member 
of the Dairymen’s League not willing to 
feed his calves for six weeks should give ! 
them to a feeder who is. and iu buying 
the heifers at milking age pay as much 
for them as would be demanded by a 
drover. h.

Tiie witness was a negro woman, 
whose reply to every query was, “I think 
so.” Finally the opposing lawyer rose 
and pounded on the desk. “Now, you 
look here,” he roared, “you cut that 
thinking business and answer my ques¬ 
tions. Now talk.” “Mr. Lawyer Man,” 
said the witness, “Mr. Lawyer Man, you 
will have to ’scuse me. I ain’t like you 
’terneys, I can’t talk without thinkin’.”—
