Salem, Ore.—Whale milk may someé day settle the question of milk supply for Oregon, according to State Veter- inarian Lytle, who is entirely serious in the matter. “The milk shortage,” said Mr. Lytle, “may be swatted some day by domes- ticating the whale. With the whole Pacific ocean as a farm the domesti- cated whale would put the Oregon dairy business on a mammoth scale, Whales are mammals, each of which furnishes about a barrel of niilk at a milking, and while at present they are a little too shy to be exactly classed as easy milkers, some day they will be domesticated.” Doctor Lytle suggests placing a sheep or two on every lawn in Oregon as a more Immediate means of curing the milk and wool shortage. “A good sheep of long or medium wool will give as much milk as a $75 milch goat, and it is the finest obtain- able for infants. In addition, from $6 to $8 worth of wool can be ob- tained. If the lamb is raised, $10 can be obtalned for it at three months, but, of course, if the milk is wanted the lamb must be sacrificed.” SIR DYCE DUCKWORTH Siz Dyce Duckworth, one of the best known of England’s prominent physi- clans, served on the naval medicine consulting board. He is- active and honorary member of many of the world’s most famous medical socle- ties. He sacrificed thousands of pounds yearly practice by devoting much of his time to the affairs of the board.
