TO
ONE CENT BOOST
IN MILK PRICES
(Continued inna rat One.)
It was also stated that after the
milk control board had ruled on
the matter, a provision on bottle
caps would be embodied in the
ordinance in accordance with the
board's findings. Under the
"proposed" ruling, however, the
council might require lip-pro-Iccting
caps, in which event no
extra charge would have to be
made, or it might not require
such caps, in which case an ad
ditional cent would have to be
charged for any special tops.
An exception in the case of
school cafeterias is made in the
minimum price of half pints
which, though priced at five
cents retail, may be delivered to
the schools at 2V4 cents, the
proposed order sets forth.
Under the proposed order
pints of four per cent milk are
raised from seven to eight cents,
quarts from 11 to 12 cents and
gallon lots in cans from 40 to 48
cents. Pints of premium or five
per cent milk are increased from
eight to nine cents, quarts from
12 to 13 cents and gallon lots in
cans from 44 to 52 cents.
Half pints of light cream re
main at 15 cents retail, pints go
up from 25 to 27 cents and quarts
from 45 to 50 cents; heavy
cream prices are raised from 18
to 19 cents a half pint, 33 to 35
cents for pints and 60 to 65
cents for quarts.
Production Costs Up
From its hearing here the
board found that there had been
substantial increases in the wage
scale paid labor by milk pro
ducers in the past year and that
there had been varying degrees
of increases in the cost of feed,
farm equipment and supplies and
transportation. The distributor
producers here submitted evi
dence to show that feed costs
had risen 25 per cent and labor
from 20 to 25 per cent in the
past year, emphasizing that the
milk price increase sought was
only about 10 per cent.

initely sympathetic audience,
with only an occasional boo
from the galleries, heard Isola
tionist Senator Burton K. Wheel
er defend his views last night
and reiterate that he was trying
to help President Roosevelt
"keep promises he made the
American people" to keep Amer
ica out of war.
Forty policemen were assign
ed to the meeting, which was
transferred to the Metropolitan
theatre after the Eagles lodge
refused the America first com
mittee use of their auditorium.
The theatre, filled to capacity
with 1,700 people, and an over
flow audience of 8,000 outside
heard him lash out early at the
opposition against his coming
here.
"I began to think that instead
of going over to Europe to fight
for the four freedoms we ought
to come to Seattle and fight for
the four freedoms here," he
said.
"When the veterans of foreign
wars wanted to get the bonus
back a number of years ago,
who did they come to?" he
asked. "They came to me," he
added.

burns on her face and head but
still failed in her frantic effort
to rescue two small daughters
from the blazing family home.
Alone with the children,
Mary, 2, and Peggy, 3, when a
kerosene cooking stove set the
small dwelling aflame last night,
Mrs. Dougherty rushed to the
window of the girls' bedroom
and broke out the pane with her
fists.
She succeeded in reaching one
child, but because the broken
glass had severed tendons in
both her arms, she could not
pull the baby to safety before
the searing heat drove her back.

Fancy Bartlett Pears
FOR CANNING
Wa hare In Medford Ice k Storage several hundred
small boxes of excellent quality Bartlett pears. These
boxes weigh between 23 and 25 pounds net, or about
half the sis of a regular standard wrapped and
packed box. They are all large sises, ideal for can
ning. These pears have been washed, graded and
sised exactly the same as pears going into our stand
ard boxes that we ship to the eastern markets.
For those whs would like a few pears for canning
purposes we would recommend their purchasing one
or mere of these small boxes, priced at
$ 1 .00 Sox at Hedf of d Ice & Storage Co.
Each pear should be in suitable condition to can,
not like the loose pears you buy in field lugs, or
culls.
Bartletts in this type of package are very limited
here in the district and just a tip to those who like
fruit during the winter months canned Bartletts,
as well as canned peaches and other soft fruits, will
be quite expensive later, and for economy's sake
you should can a few Bartletts and save some money.
