(Sacramento Ilea)
lluttormllk, trio plain, everyday
product of tho dairy, threatens to up
set oil tbo prohibition theories of
Rnprnaontatlvo Volstead and literally
transform evory cow Into a breathing
boozo factory, with an output con
servatively measured by tho breed of
tho bovlno and' capacity for alfalfa
and clover.
Tho invasion, or ratner the ais
covory of this too bovcrago, Is ac
jknowlcdgod by Dean H. E. Van Nor
I man of tbo California university farm
school at Davis, and also Is concur
red In by Professor E. J. Lee, direct
or of tho stato board of health's bu
reau of food and drugs at Berkeley,
both of whom say skimmed milk has
a "punch" to It that hns been abont

I m lien Dr. Herbert Watson, eminent
state chomlsC of Maryland, declared
buttermilk contains 3 per cent al-
.cohot
' Dean Van Normnn, with his herd
i of tho finest Holstelns and Jerseys on
tha hoof, suddenly saw the danger
j signal ahead when his attention was
called to tho Watson discovery, al
though he says the alcoholic content
of milk must be dovelopcd to a cer
tain degree.
'in Wisconsin and a fow other east
ern dairy states, a drink concocted of
buttermilk called "Komlss" ha be
come very popular, said Van Nohmb.
and there Is enough alcohol In a glass
to produce a "kick." The only worry
the Davis farmers now have Is the
new element of tho prohibition law
entering Into the dally routine of
cooling and hauling the milk to tho
atatlon for shipment. The perplex
ing question Is: Would a farmer be
guilty ot violating the eighteenth
amendment with respect to tho trans
portation ot liquor should the milk
whllo oii route "turn" and develop
tho 3 per cent or over alcoholic con
tent? Professor Lee said the possibilities
of buttermilk seemed to be almost as
boundless as the ocean, aa the pres
ence ot 6 per cent sugar In the dairy
product offer a solution to the army
of topers, some of whom, since the
country went "dry," have been garg
ling hair tonic, cologne and other
concoctions of a more or lee deadly
and burning nature.
With soothing buttermilk. Profes
sor Lee think the fat would get lean
and vice versa- while at the same
time the blissful Joyishness that goes
with 3 per cent alcoholic mixtures
should make th'o dairy cow tho meat
popular boast living. .
Professor Leo said the sugar In
milk either could bo converted into
acids, or alcohol, as tho wish might
be. Loft to do Its own converting,
Loo declared buttormllk would not
always run toward the "drunkard's
grave," but a little study and atten
tion to the fomentation process
would turn tho trick,, Just how tho
fermentation is to bo accomplished,
for tha time being, is a deop and mys
terious secret, but It is likely soon to
leak out.

POUCr NEEDED
MARION, O., Aug. 21. A forest
policy that would make tbo United
SUtes "self-reliant" In timber pro
duction, was advocated by Benator
Harding In a short speech ma"3e here
to a picnic ot the local LumJbermaa'a
association. Citing the shortage of
'housing facilities, he declared the
nation must begin to "think of tim
ber crop as we do of other cultiva
tion," and must stamp out careteasr-
ness and neglect In their care. He
fpralsed the part the lumber Industry
took in the war.
'(."There is a notable halting in the
construction ot home because of the
almost prohibitive cost," he said.
"Lumber plays its very conspicuous
part therein. Much of this, of course,
relate to the increased coat of pro
duction, but there Is a permanent In
clination to advance In cost because
ot the diminution of supply.
We ought to have a national pol
icy ot preservation and reforesta
tion." In a short talk to members of the
Society of American Indians, Senator
Harding declared that the India)
Is as much entitled to a square deal
as any one else, and added:
And If we succeed to the control
ot the government, I promise he will
get It."

Although Senator Lachmund and
