! Milk Handling in Oswego County, N. Y. 
I belong to the Hannibal Dairymen’s 
League. Our milk has been contracted 
to the Peters Chocolate Works at Fulton, 
N. T., until next Spring at League prices. 
The company wishes to contract for the 
next year on the same terms. We deliver 
our milk to the cheese factory at Hanni¬ 
bal, and the company engages the cheese 
factory owners to cool and recan and de¬ 
liver at Fulton, eight miles away, by 
truck. There is a good State road from 
j Hannibal to Fulton. We pool our milk 
for test as follows: There is a small 
hole in spout or pipe from the weigh 
can, so a little of each man’s milk is 
taken as the milk runs from the can where 
it has been, weighed. From this milk 
three samples are taken. One is tested 
at the cheese factory, one is tested at the 
chocolate works, and one is kept, and if 
there is any dispute sent to Cornell. 
Twice I believe this has been done, and 
each time the test at the cheese factory 
has been verified. We feel that though 
as individuals some may get a little less 
and some a little more than belongs to 
them, as a League we are pretty well 
protected. We received for September 
per 100 lbs., $2.68 ; first 15 days in 
October per 100 lbs., $3.39. As I said 
above, our milk is contracted for the 
Winter, and so will not come into compe¬ 
tition with shipping milk. This takes 
away quite a lot of milk that formerly 
went to New York and Rochester. We 
believe this helps in the fight in those 
cities. GEOROE W. KOGER.S.

to be a fine dairy cow, and then you will 
see how she will help out the milk situa¬ 
tion by helping feed the country. It is 
a great thing for a child to have a living 
animal to care for, and if they can feel 
a sense of ownership in it, so that it will 
never be taken away from them, it will 
have a lasting influence all through their 
lives. 
And won’t those three little fellows in 
the wagon grow up to be farmers? They 
certainly made a fine start as teamsters, 
and the next thing you know they will 
have a calf or a goat hitched up to that 
wagon, and away they will go. One of 
them will drive the outfit, and the other 
will hang on. to the baby so he won’t fall 
out, but in any event they are on their 
way, and we shall have three good farm¬ 
ers to help provide for the country in the 
future. 
Can This Be America ? 
(Continued from page 13.33) 
phone to the chief of police, when I was 
told the patrol was coming. I went to 
meet it, and told the officer briefly what 
had happened. He took my name and 
address and I went back to the Greek’s 
house with .Irm, but to his inquiries the 
men round there denied any knowledge of 
the three we were looking for. The offi¬ 
cer said there was nothing we could do, 
and I asked him if I would better come 
and report to the chief. He said no, he 
would report it. He went back to the 
station and I started for home. I stopped 
to get my gun and the patrol overtook me 
there again and the officer said the chief 
wanted to see me. I went back with him 
and then told my story to the chief. He 
said at once it w'as just an accident and 
he would not do anything about it. He 
then asked me how far we were apart 
and I told him, and he said the shot 
would he falling at that distance. He 
asked if I had a revolver, and when I 
said “No,” said I could have his, but 
later brought me my gun and handed it 
to me, keeping the empty cartridge. He 
said the nian was not seriously injured, 
and this was confirmed the following day 
by the doctor to whom the chief took 
him. However, they swore out a war- 
rent for assault with a dangerous weap¬ 
on, and also placed an attachment on my 
property for $5,000, serving papers in a 
suit for damages. 
At the trial the younger man testified 
that they had been picking berries in the 
pasHire (trespassing), and were going 
home. First he said five shots were fired, 
but changed that statement later to four 
shots; that the first was fired on the hill 
and the last shot was the one which 
struck him, and that less than three 
minutes elapsed between the first and last 
shots, and admitted that the distance 
was half a mile. These statements were 
characteristic of all his testimony. The 
plaintiff broke down and started to cry 
on the stand, and the judge told him he 
could sit down. From this time onward 
the impression was perfectly clear that 
the judge had reached hi.s decision in 
the matter, although no witness for the 
defence had been heard. Prominent peo¬ 
ple testified as to my character and stand¬ 
ing in the community and that I was a 
duly appointed special officer. We intro¬ 
duced photos of the orchard and also of 
the road where the shooting occurred, and 
a civil engineer’s plan of the road, show¬ 
ing the location of the different parties, 
and showing that I was 300 feet from the 
plaintiff, whereas the son said we were 
only 40 feet apart when the shot wai 
fired. 
The judge, in stating his decision to 
counsel, said that he considered the first 
shot was fired in the air, but not the 
second ; that I was not sorry for what I 
had done, and if he 1 t me go others 
would think that they could do the same 
thing, and that I would do the same 
thing again under the same circum¬ 
stances, and he would impose a fine of 
$50. 
The case was continued two weeks to 
give me time to pay the fine. I have 
been sinking every cent I could get in 
this farm for 10 years; it was badly run 
down when I took it, and some places as 
hare as the road, and I have just begun 
to see the benefit of my work in the 
heavy growth of grass and the rye cover 
crop. I had not money enough to fight 
the case through the courts, and I have 
paid the fine and settled the damage.s out 
of court, but it is forcing me out of busi¬ 
ness^ to do it. I suppose I could go on, 
for it has not injured my credit or stand¬ 
ing, hut I fail to see the use in doing so 
when we cannot have reasonable protec¬ 
tion for our crops or ourselves. This is 
not an isolated case of trespas.sing. I 
got my appointment as special officer be¬ 
cause of the numerous raids made on the 
farm every season from July 1 until the 
last apple is picked, and others are 
troubled the same way. The police are 
unable to cope with it, though they have 
received more complaints this yeax than 
ever, mostly from the city patriotic gar¬ 
deners.^ I suggested to both the mayor 
and chief of police that they furnish a 
motorcycle patrol from July 1 to No¬ 
vember 1, and I think some such course 
will have to be adopted some time if they 
ever wake up to the real necessity of the 
situation. The raids are not confined to 
nearby gardens and orchards, or by poor 
people, hut auto parties are going out 
and loading up with all they can get; 
they forget to pay for the goods. Of the 
five Greeks, the one I had caught and 
the one who was shot, were fined $10 
each and the other three allowed to go. 
I gave my badge * the chief that aft¬ 
ernoon after the trial, and said I was 
through. He did not want to take it; 
urged me to keep it, but I refused. We 
took out warrants against the Greeks for 
trespass and against one for assault, and 
on the latter charge the judge said they 
had a right to resist arrest, as they did 
not know we were officers. That, to me, 
seems like saying that any trespassers 
have a right to beat up any farmer who 
tries to protect his property. I have been 
threatened several times with a beating 
when ordering trespassers off the farm, 
but I never knew before that a judge 
would uphold them. 
The Home Dressmaker 
(Continued from page 1.320) 
are cut on the same lines as the new fur 
capes of this season. One model of mar¬ 
abou lined with silk, having long Geor¬ 
gette crape ends finished wdth marabou 
balls, cost $6.75; another model at the 
same price was marabou on both sides. 
Shawl collars of white washing satin 
that tie in a flat knot are strongly in 
favor; they are quite narrow, about' 3i/^ 
inches at_ the widest part, and lie quite 
flat, making a very trim and becoming 
finish to the dress. These collars are 
entirely plain, v'ithout embrolidery or 
other trimming. 
Hats_ begin to slow more trimming, and 
it is likely, before the Winter is over, 
that we .shall see an extensive use of os¬ 
trich plumes again. This means more 
trouble for the home milliner, for most 
women with the least bit of knack can 
arrange a single flower or oimament so 
that it is becoming, but it needs .skill to 
place elaborate trimming to advantage. 
Sewing Room Hints. —In making 
over a dress of thin silk that is rather 
worn at the hem, instead of facing up, 
one may follow the present vogue by 
using the Turkish hem that looks as 
though gathered in at the bottom. The 
skirt is turned tip on a lining with a 
slightly gathered effect, and not ironed 
fiat at the bottom. 
The newest collar on blouses is an 
Eton attached to a high baud, so that it 
sets up, sloping at the sides of the neck, 
instead of lying flat on the shonlder.s. 
This is a becoming model for a slim 
wearer. Some very pretty blouses of 
white voile had high collars of this type 
of narrow blue and white or red and 
white stripes, and cuffs to match. 
Ball buttons of ivory, plain or carved, 
are seen as trimming on dark serge 
dresses. 
A suit of two or three seasons ago, 
having a rather long coat seamed on at 
the waist, may be greatly modernized by 
ripping out the seam and setting the 
skirt part higher at the back, so as to 
give a high waist line. The narrower 
skirt, which has been replaced by fuller 
draperies the past two years, is now in 
vogue again.
