(Office of Information, U.

On the other hand it is also a tax upon the farmer, for it‘te‘;q,s to keep down the price paid ‘Tiilk“on’ the farms-Tt miust be un- derstood, however,. that much of. present system, can not bhé entirely prevented, because there are so many dealers in.each locality, and compe- tition is keen.

In the Dis- trict of Columbia 98 routes were measured. The shortest distance traveled by any - wagon ‘was 10.4 miles, and the longest was 30, show- ing a considerable variation. The average distance for the 98 wagons was 19.1 miles. When these measure- ments were made there were ap- proximately 510 miles of ' streets In the District and 250 wagons were making, the retail* deliveries of milk. Figuring that-each of these wagons traveled 19.1 miles, they all covered 4,776 ‘miles each” day, or 9.3 times the sum of all the streets in the dis- trict. ‘Thus the time of about 8 of every 9 Wagons was used unecono- nomically.

The present trend’in ' retal * business seems to be toward.the small pack- age. A few years,ago many kinds of food were sold in bulk ‘which at pres- ent are purchased,.to.a large extent, {in small packages. The same trend Is noticeable \in' the'retail milk .business there being a greater demand for pint bottles than for quart, in the five | large cities recently studied by the de- vurtment‘—Baston, Washington, Pitts- burg, Philadelphia and . Baltimore. Seventy-four dealers in these cities handled daily about 260,000 quart | bottles-and 361,000 pint;botties; About forty-one per cent, of the total bottled | i the waste in.milk delivery, under the | milk of these dealers is handled pints.

In all the chrofiicles of strife, of conquest, of crime, of destruction—death, these ! examples of souls welded with the unselfish . whole-hearted, life-lons limbs of true friendship, stand out in all ages in bold and unending relief, untarnished in the flight of time, un- milk to make up for the loss on one pint,: yet, as the figures show, there | is a surprisingly large number of ' i pints ‘handled by some dealers. Where Do the Bottles Go? The lass of. bottles is:a perplexing ! i problem to all dealers.and, in the ag- gregate, the total amount of- mon lost reaches great proportions in a | year. The life of a pint -bottle - is: much shorter than that of a. quart, which is computed to_ last from six to : fifty trips, the average being = 22.5.| trips. ‘If the dealer delivers -10,000 bottles daily, .and. they cost him 315 cents each, his daily expense for re- placing bottles would be $15.55, or $5,675.75 a year. It is necessary to use small- bottles for some kinds of trade, as, for instance, the hotel or restaurant trade, where the ' guests are served milk in the bottle, but the cost of delivery and the loss of bottles in connection with: tdis trade is us- ually small. In some sections of the cities, customers .of ten feel unable to buy more than a pint of milk at a time; this has a tendency to cut down the consumption of milk. Other fam- ilies afe so small that they do not re- quire more than a pint. If a pint sells for more than half the price of a quart, as is often the | case, then buying by the pint is the more expensive method for the con- i sumer, as he pays the extra cost of delivery. If there is no difference in Price, then the extra cost of-delivery coms out of the profits of the dealer. | {The small, local community stores of- | fen handle large quantities of milk, | | 8nd here, too, the greatest demand is for pint bottles. On account of the convenient size | éhere is also more temptations for the | ustomers to appropriate a pint bot- | fle instead of the quart for the. pre- | Serving of vegetables and fruits, and i for other purposes..

She was just entering high school and was an indifferent student. She went to this institution, learned to be blind (as they there) and developed into an excellent student, especially in mathematiocs Furthermaore she also developed a splendid pluck which made her willing to go back among the seeing and compete with them She had lost twa vears of high school, but despite the handicap of blindness she did the three years’ -work in two and graduated weil up in her class i The Pluck That Transforms A’ Handicap. i That's what a handicap did to a character wit'yilick emouigh to m.% it into a stimulus.
