Come On Down What boy wouldn't tqant Io show his chum one of these dressy long trouser suits the first time he wore it? Another increase In the price of milk is imminent through the action of the New England regional milk commission in granting an increase to the milk producers suppling the Boston market The price to dairy men supplying the Springfield market rises automatically with the Boston price by agreement and there is little doubt that the dealers will advance their price to the consumers to match the increased price to the farmers: It is forecast the retail price now 16 cents in Springfield will go to 17 cents Announcement reached Springfield this morning that the commission had set the Boston price at 9 centsa quart delivered in that city and at 16 Iri cents to the consumer Letters were sent out at once to the milk men supplying the Springfield market announcing the increased price for November The dealers were notified also The decision of the commission to allow another increase in the price to the farmers was reached only after a thorough consideration of the situa tion Thousands of statements as to the cost of producing milk were sent in by farmers and it was on the basis of these sworn statements that tlie commission granted the additional three eighths cent The recent action of the food ad ministration in putting the ban on whipped cream in restaurants hotels bakeries etc will help the situation a little It is now against the regula tipns to sell heavy cream anything mere than 20 per cent being forbid den Cream as high as 40 per cent has been sold for whipping purposesand the 20 per cent cream cannot possibly be whipped This will result in a considerable quantity of milk be ing sold to the consumers as whole milk instead of being separated the cream being sold in the city and the skimmed milk fed to pigs onthe farm The New England milk association which represents the farmers has asked the commission to establish a cost accounting system on the farms of the members to deter mine if possible the actual cost of producing milk under New England conditions The high cost of grain and scarcity of labor are reacting on the milk supply and producing an actual shortage It is believed by agricultural experts that the shortage will be much more acute this winter than last LODGE GOING TO BOSTON Washington Oct 2S Senator Lodge republican leader of the Sen ate will leave Washington for Bos ton to nfght The minority leader called off his

to his parents re ceived within the psat week stated that at the time of writing there were 300 cases of influenza in that city and the deaths had been only three Contrary to the accepted opionion of some physicians in the East the pa tients in Denver are being treated in part with a gargle which though made of: simple Ingredients has been found to be highly efficacious in com bating' the malady Mr Kavanaugh said that so far as was known' not a life had been lost of a patient who had used the gargle The recipe was shown a well known local druggist who said the gargle1 was 'One of the best that he had seen It was wholly harmless to the per son using it in fact it would prob ably be effective Mr Kavan augh wrote particularly to his parents to urge the family to use the prepara tion and 'Mrs Kavanaugh asked that publicity be given to the recipe The ingredients and their proportions fol low: One teaspoonful of salt on? teaspoonful of boraclc acid one tea spoonful of baking soda (salaratusl dissolve In a glass of warm water and use the preparation as a gargle thoroughly several times a day An epidemic very similar to the in fluenza raged in Georgia some 50 years ago according to a Merrick woman who stated that its ravages were appalling until a Dr Randall who afterward she said became na tionally famous hit upon a method for successfully fighting the disease He went about among the stricken people and urged them and the au uioritles to kill calves cut the car casses into good sized chunks and hang them on the trees Dr theory was that the exposed pieces of meat would qttrqet the germs and if fresh pieces were 'continually dis played for a time the epidemic would die out The people and authorities laughed the doctor to scorn inally he took it upon himself to put his theory into practice He had calves killed and hung the carcasses on trees and bushes at night and in the morning the meat was found: to be "green as grass" due he said to' infection by the disease germs Very soon tho dis ease disappeared from that region and Dr Randall was hailed as the savior of the country 5VEST SPRINGIELD BRIES Expert prescription work nt Drug Store cor Day and Main streets
