Dear:— Being so long since my last letter, 1 suppose you think I have fallen into my old tricks again. We are still out on the ocean and if you find my writtig illegible kindly lay it to the rolling of the boat, as it is not very smooth out here today. I have not been seasick as vet, but.have not be- gun to brag about it. as we are still a long way from land. It sure was a long way across this pond and I will be mighty glad to set foot on land again. On the ship that I am on I met an old Norwich friend who is in the navy, George Mullen, a fellow I used to go to school with. He is the first chap from home I have met yet in nearly a yvear and believe me I sure was glad to see him. When I land back in the States again, if I ever do. it will be neither Texas or Georgia that I will head for, but dear old Norwich. I had some good times since leaving there and met some nice people. There are many interesting things 1 across the states and also aboard ship but you know that now on all mail will be censored and we cannot use too much care in what we say. I will call a halt for this time and will write again as soon as I get settled in a permanent place. Remember me to all the folks and be sure to write soon. As ever, 2D LIEUT. WILLIAM B.

Mr. Smith told the producers that it would be very difficult to produce certified, or grade A milk and that the only economical means of com- order would be in the pasteurization of the milk. This means of course will mean many thousands of dotlars in expense, equipment, trucks for collection and distribution. There are three ways to do It.

The milk producers of Norwich and the surrounding towns voted to estab- lish a co-operative pasteurization cor- poration with a plant in some central Iy located place in Norwich for the pasteurization of all milk sold in Nor- wich and vicinity, the estimated cost of#which would be $65,000 or $70,000, at. the Commer.ial School rooms in the Chamber of Com- merce building on Wednesday evening. At the meeting there were well over a hundred men interested in the pro- duction and sale of milk. Present at the meeting was Captain H. C. Cody, in charge of the New London federal Lieut. W. F. Pur- rington, associated with the office of and- Lieut.-Commander Newton of the U, S. Naval district, and other members of the sanitary com- then called upon Lieut. the view of the naval side, eaying that there was no milk used in any naval station that was not pasteurized. He sald that many epidemics had broken out through impure milk and cited one case that has occurred in the vicinity milk which comes from what appear to be spotless dairies is not necessarily pure as contagion may creep in through The only safe way to make milk pure is by pasteurization In pas- teurizing milk it is heated to 142 de- grees, not boiled, and then scientifi- cally cooled. The navy insists that all v the expenses from a mar- n between the buying price and the gelling price of the milk and the @fvi- dends or surplus money would be paid to the stockholders according to the amount of milk they had put intc He strong- ly advocated the establishment of a Providenee, R. 1. ehat. 1 viding he complies with the standards established, investigation shows that it is impractical for any of us to at- tempt to produce either certified or grade A milk, or to pasteurize our product on a small scale at home. The principal reasons leading to this con- clusion are that cows must be tuber- culin tested, all cows showing reaction to be disposed of at once, that the cost of installing and maintaining the necessary equipment {s prohibitive, and that a large increase of labor would be necessary to carry out the regulations. This leaves the alternative of mar- keting our milk through a central plant, properly equipped to handle all grades of milk in compliance with the regulations. After having carefully investigated milk plants built and maintained under similar conditions and requirements, we are convinced not only of the feasibility of the plant but also that such a plant properly organized and managed can be oper- ated very profitably and that it will be decidedly to the advantage of the producers to own and operate it. In View of the foregoing facts, we, the directors of the. Norwich Milk Producers’ association, recommend that a co-operative association of milk producers be organized and incor- yorated under the co-operative law of the state of Connecticut. = After a little discussion the“motion was made to éndorse the Milk Pro- ducers' association recommendation and to establish a co-operative core poration for the pasteurization of milk. After the vote had been taken Mr. McCarthy presented the following rec- ommendation, which was accepted: In order to successfully put into op- eration such an enterprise as we have Just voted, many vitally important problems will have to be met and solved and much' hard work will be involved. The directors of our asso- ciation cannot do this alone. We must each and every one of us do his share. A rough estimate shows that from $65,000 to $70,000 will be needed to properly finance such.a plant as has been proposed. Of this amount, at least §40,000 should ‘he subscribed for beffore proceeding further with the proposition. These subseriptions might De pledged on the following basis: ,25 ‘per cent. to be paid in at the time the assocfation is incorporat- ed, 25 per cent. at the time the plant is ready for operation, and the re maining 50 per cent. in five equal in. stallments one each month thereafter. Articles of incorporation and by-laws will have to be prepared and many | other matters taken care of. We therefore r*commend that an or- ganization committee be elected, em- powered to solicit - subscriptions of stock and carry out the necessary or- ganization matters. In order to save time and reduce organization expenses we suggest that this organization com- mittee call the milk producers together again in the near future for an or- ganization meeting at which pledges for stock will be taken. By all taking hold, the work will be made easy and the benefits enjoyed by all. ¢ The following organization commit- tee was elected: Robert Stott, Thomas McClimon, A. E. Geer, Thomas New- man, Nelson Stark, J. D. McCarthy, L. H. Smith, Clarence Sholes, N, E. Whiting, A: Gallup, John Coggs- hall, Shermdff Beebe and Dwight W. Avery.

Robinson, Sergeant Harold T. Robin- son tells of his many experiences in France as follows: Sept. 3—1 had my first experience with a French barber today, and you ought to see the hair cut. What do you think of the news from the front these days? 1t looks as if the boys from home were getting what they came over for. The whole crowd is doing some wonderful work. I have a chance to take a flight in one of the big machines Sunday and I think I will try it. I was notified yesterday that I had been made a sergeant. It is much better, or seems better, getting it over here in a strange organization than it would if I got it in my old outfit or back in the States. It seems now as it T earned it or I wouldn't have it. There is a lot of wheat being har- vested over here now. Everywhere we go or look out in the country we can See wheat stacked up and: hear threshing machines at work. The grapes are just getting ripe over here, but they are a disappointment to the boys—they are so sour. They are the wine grapes. 1 guess I will stay here after all. T thought at one time I might zet out with an ammunition train, but 1 guess it is the school for me. The work here at present is long and keeps us goin but I like it. That is when my trucks do not start giving a lot of trouble. Tom Collins is driving one of my trucks and he has had some fine luck with it. His top has been torn off but that doesn’t bother the thing under the hood. I remember when things under the hood used to be something .f a mystery to me, but no_more. Sept. 10—Saturday five other ser- geants and myself were lucky enough to get a 24 hour leave, and we visited two places in the mountains which had just been opened as lease areas, where fellows can spend their fur- loughs. One of the surprising things was the number of people who could speak English. In one of the towns there are 15 American girls connected with the Y. From the looks of things it seems that more men will be leaving before long. - When we read of those things and the work the people are doing at home it makes us realize what a great country we have. The boys over here who get back when the war is over will certainly be better men all the way through for the experiences they are getting now. They will also realize what home means. Sept. 19—T am some stiff and lame this morning, as I hiked out and climb- ed to the highest point in central France yesterday. It was quite a hike as the foot of the peak is six miles from here and the climb to the top a long one. The view was wonderful. Several times we were up among the clouds and couldn't see much of any- thing until they cleared away. experience I have before leaving here was talking with Mrs. Theodore Roose- velt, Jr. Sheis a wonderful woman and is doing some good work with her Y. M. C. A, We will be back on the job again soon. T hate to leave the real beds here at the furlough point and the other things that remind us of home, but it is all in the game. I imagine that I will be leaving the school before long. I don't know of anything that should lead me fo be- lieve in that but I cannot see what we can do this winter. We may go far- ther south. There is work enough there for some time to come. Sept. 24—Back in_the harness once more. T had a great time and a good rest on my furlough. While away I visited a fountain the waters of which ve objects a coat of stone when left here long emough. Near the moun- tain we visited one of the boys asked for some milk and, honestly, the wom- an caught a geat and milked it while ‘we waited. Sept. 29—This job calls for nights and Sundays, but it is not bad work at had a trip to Vichy the other it and it reminded’ me " of the at home—it was so different! 1 made it in a Dodge and it proved to be quite a car. 'There is a captain on this post from Stonington. ~You may know him. Wheeler is his name and he used to play ball against me. 1 met another chap here a few days ago Who came over with the 54th reg- iment, the regiment I am in at present. He came from Portland and knew the P. M. & B. people up there. It would be great to be back there The boys up front are doing every thing they are asked, and a little bit more, from the looks of things. Some- body said the boys couldn't fight. You ought to be over here and go out to ‘the hospitals and hear their stories. 1 saw two carloads that were headed for the ‘States recently and in spite of their wounds those lads were about as happy as anyone I have ever scen. When anyone goes to the hospitals where the boys are suffering terribly and sees them smiling and telling of their wounds in a laughing way it gives one a stronger will power. The feeling between the nurses and men is a wonderful thing. It is a great army from a great country. PLENTY OF EXPERIENCE WITH ARMY QUARANTINES Soldier life in ‘the canal zone and in a letter from Private Frederick L De Vandreull of Attawaugan, wno is in Co, B, 33rd U. S. Infantry, in camp &t Gatun, Panama. The company has had plenty of experience with quar- antines, he writes. On the voyage to Panama the trans- port stopped at Can Juan, rorto Rico, where the troops were ailowed to go ashore to a camp. Private Vandreuil writes: ‘Well, the next morning they took u out for a hike. We marched through the streets of San Juan and then out to the camp. This camp is a Porto Rican draft camp. We didn’t get a chance to see much of them as they were under quarantine. So we had mess outside the camp. After dinner we went to the beach and had a swim. We made the ‘water fly arouna ror an lour then returned to the ship. The next day they had to get rid of us for they still had some more sup- plies to put in so théy gave us a ten hour pass to-see the place to please ourselves.

Then the base hospital, which is the latest and finest building « saw. I is to be used after the war for our wounded soldiers. By the time we had seen all these buildings and heard their history it was time to return to the ship. We left Porto Rico the next morning for our destination which was Pan- ama. Six days after leaving Porto Rico we landed in Colon harbor. There we boarded the train that waited for us and went to Camp Gaillard. We didn't get a chance to see what Colon jook- ed like and have not vet. The city is under restriction and no soldiers sick the business, Well, at Gaillard we were examined by two medical majors and of co the results.of that eighteen-day trip showed out quite plainly cn us.

So I had three weeks of sleep, eat and grow fat. All this time we didn’t see anvone but soldiers that we had seen for eighteen days on the ship. One day a little over three weeks ter we had reached camp the doctors iet us out of guarantine. We iwere then assigned to company and sent to Gatun where we are now stationed.

So I be- lieve that even if we do not go across we. will be doing our bit and should be proud of the chance—I know that I am. Still if I had the chance to go across 1 would take it right away. Now for a little about the people. Of Ncourse they are colored, and of all | nationalities. They talk mostly Span- ish. Bven their money is Spanish. Speaking of money makes me think of a thing that happened the .other day. A colored woman came along with a platter of bananas on her head. Nice rive bananas! Nice ripe bananas! Of course I_asked what wwanted tor- them. ~Ten. cents gold, twaty cents silver. .Well, I.had some fnoney so 1 handed her twenty cents. She handed me a dozen bananas. I walk- ed away with the intention of getting my money changed to gold as soon as rossible. Being as it would get me twice as much as silver. But I met an old timer on my way back and of- fered him a banana. We commenced to talk and I asked him about this gold business. He commenced laugh- ing and explained it to me.
