Don't Kill Your Owu Town. * Any man who deliberately buys his •goods from a mail order firm sends away money which should be used in his own town. What he does lessens the prosperity of his neighbors, and is a direct injury to himself. In BO doing he restricts his credit at the local store which he may need some time to ttde over a temporary hard spell 0/ a dull season. H. H. Warren, a dairyman at Wasco, near St. Charles, 111., has written and sfent to the Chicago Tribune a letter in which he sets forth his and other con scientious dairymen's attitude toward the city's effort to secure pnre milk, in cidentally commenting on other sani tary conditions that he personally h» observed in the city. He says; "The dairymen want to supply Chi cago with pure milk of good quality. Their cows are largely of breeds which have been bred for centnries in Europe for large yields and high quality of milk, and when the city consumer and board of health insist that the milk shall be from healthy cows and handled by healthy persons, neat in their habits; that it shall be properly cared for, and delivered at the station in good condi­ tion, we are in full accord with them. "A dairyman cannot afford to keep a cow not perfectly healthy. If he had no principle in the matter he could not afford to. They would not pay their keeping. "Then, a dairyman's cows are his pride. Many of them he raised. At one time, with my dairy of fifty cows, I had raised all but one, and they would walk up to me when passing to be petted. I love them. They are of far more value to me than their market value. Now what grounds are there for the claim or suspicion that the milk furnished Chicago 16 a bearer of disease germs and cause the death of thousands of infants? Probably nowhere is more milk used than in dairymen's families. Their children eat bread and milk and drink milk and grow strong and rugged. In city homes, under sanitary condi­ tions, the same results are reached, ex­ cept as more out of door exercise and exposure to sun and air give the coun­ try child an advantage. "In this connection a business exper­ ience comes to mind. The writer was building in the country, and for a por tion of the work needed men from Chi­ cago. He was told where he could find them, but advised to go in the evening when they had ret urned from work and had eaten their suppers. He was ushered into a room, not a large one, where were four men, all smoking, two women and three children, all under 5 years, one a baby. There w»s a regi ment of smells. Beer, tobacco smoke and vitiated air struggled for supremacy. My business was quickly finished and I left. "Now, Mr. Health Commissioner, while milk from my dairy makes strong, rugged children where sanitary condi­ tions are favorable, are you going to ac­ cuse my gentle, mild eyed cows of mur der, because some children under such conditions as I have described cannot be saved by it? "We won't quarrel. We won't dis­ agree, because we are both striving for the same object, but look upon the question from different standpoints.

PROBA TE NEWS AntiochNews: Lake county 'a hungry pack of wolves, or coyotes, as they seem to have been interbped with dogs, is in full cry and hungry after blood to such an extent that farmers near Liberty- ville are preparing to orgauize a hunt after them. There are four in the pack and they were last seen two days ago near the Bradley farm on the electric road in plain view of passing cars. The members of the pack are becom­ ing more daring every day and the fol­ lowing farmers have suffered thus far from their depredations: Farmer Curttle- Lost several pri*e sheep which the wolves killed, stripping the flesh from their bones. Arthur Meeker- Lost several pigs in same manner recently. A third farmer lost sheep. There were originally five in the pack, but one was shot recently after a long hunt. Its body was never recovered until a few days ago when it was found near Libertyville. The body shows in­ terbreeding with dogs and indicates that the wolves are of the smallest and most cowardly type, the coyotes. Farmers are unable to get over their surprise that there should be wolves in this vicinity. Few have seen them, but many have felt their power in the loss of r,heep, pigs and chickens.
