The exit of buttermilk as a pro- a. r- hibitiori drink, and the bow oi we- mon Rum" were stnjred the past week when Dr. Herbert Watson, eminent state chemist of aiaryianci, declared buttermilk contains 3 per rnt alcohol. Dean Van Norman, with his herd of the finest Holsteins and Jerseys on the hoof, suddenly saw the dan ger signal ahead when his attention was called to the Watson discovery, although he says the alcoholic con tents of milk must be developed to a certain degree. In Wisconsin and a few other east em dairy states, a drink concocted of buttermilk called "Komias" has become very popular, said Van Nor man, and there is enough alcohol In a Klass to prouuee a -aic. in- only worry the Davis farmers now have is th new element of the pro hibition law entering into the daily routine of cooling; and hauling tht milk to the station for shipment. The perplexing question Is: Would a fanner be guilty of violating the eighteenth amendment with respect to the transportation of liquor should the milk while enroute "turn" and develoD the 3 per cent or over alcoholic content? Professor Lee said the possiblli ties of buttermilk seemed to be al most as boundless as the ocean, aa the presence of 5 per cent sugar in the dairy product offers a solution to the army of toners, some of whom, since the country went "dry,' have been Kargling hair tonic, co lojfne and other concoctions of a more or less deadly nnd burning nature. With soothing buttermilk, Profes sor Lee thinks the fat would get lean and vice versa, while at the same time the blissful joyishness that goes with 3 ner rent alcoholic mixtures should make the dairy cow most popular beast living. mands electric light tad Jn vie.

Left to do its own converting, I.ce declared buttermilk would not always run toward the "drunkard's Krave," but a little study and at tention to th fermentation process would turn the trick.
