MISUNDERSTANDING: AS TO MILK State Hoard Issues Statement in Itc gard to Skimmed Milk Ruling. Columbia, Nov. 20.-"Uniiecessar ily, there appears to be a lot of mis understanding with reference to the recent declaration of the State Hoard of Health regarding the stile of skim - med milk in small cans," said Com missioner Harris yesterday. "The matter is very simple, (.'?inned whole milk, or condensed milk, may bo sold as heretofore, lt is tho skimmed i milk at which the State Hoard of Health is aiming in its regulations. "As this department is charged with the enforcing of tho r?gulations, and as our inspectors will have this matter under their observation, 1 wb'i to get tho public straight on th matter. Tho State Board of Hon!th made this regulation not be ] cause tho canned skimmed milk is poisonous, but because it lias not full non rishment. "The regulation of the State Board as to the skimmed milk provides that it must not be sold in packages or tins containing less than one gallon of Ihm id or ten pounds of powdered skimmed milk; also, that at the stores, shops or places where such condensed, evaporated or powdered milk is sold, a sign must be dis played, upon which is printed in black letters at least live Inches in height and worded as follow: 'Con densed, evaporated or powdered skimmed milk should not bo fed to babies or invalids-it has not the food vaule of whole milk.' Mothers who huve reared their lit tle ones uopn the condensed milk of certain well established brands need feel no alarm, for that kind of milk has not been put under the ban of tho State Board of Health. And as the skimmed milk i.s not actively in jurious, but is merely lacking in fat, the Stato Board of Health has sug gested that the merchants who have been innocent purchasers of stocks be allowed ninety days from Oct. 7th in which to rid themselves of what they have on hand, and wholesalers have been ordered to buy and s.?ll ro more except under the form provided by the State Hoard of Health.

Kansas City, Mo.. Nov. IS.-A na tion-wide producers' strike to com bat the falling prices of farm pro ducts was urged in a call sent out to day by tho National Farmers' Union to its local unions throughout the country. The call, in the form of a resolu tion adopted at the national conven tion of the organization here, went forward to the secretaries of local branches of the organization, which represents producers of grain, cot ton, wool and live stock, said to num ber SOO.OOO. The proposed strike was urged in retaliation for what the convention considered abnormal deflation in tho prices of farm products, through which, it was asserted. "American farmers have been robbed of one bil lion dollars in reduced value of pro ducts now on hand." All fanners were urged to hold this year's pro duction from the markets until "pro fit-making levels'" were restored. The action of the National I'.inn ers linton was in line sviih a ' whoa! strike." called several weeks ago by Hie Wheal Growers' Association of tho Hulled stales. Delegates asserted thal a considerable quantity of Ibis year's wheal i .> was being held off the marke; by farmers. Reduction of production in Hie fu ture was threatened "unless the prices of our products are fairly re adjusted to the end that we may ob tain jus! returns for our labors and investments," in another resolution approved by tho convention. Officials of the organization point ed out thal members were not under obligation to obey the terms of Hie strike, imf expressed tho belief that such a movement would bo effective. A conference of representatives ot all farmers' organizations of the coun try was called to meet in ?-\f .Louis on Dec. IO lo consider the creation of a national farm marketing board. Charles s, Barrett, of I nion City, fla., who has nerved for t'n'teon years ns president of the union, was re elected last night. Mr. Peto Wing of Hawk Point. Mo., made a lot of money out of his hogs. Ho .say?: "1 fed them Dr, Le Gear's Hog Prescription, lt hat) given wonderful results in putting gains on them with less feed. They were on heavy feed for only a month, averaged u BU tn of 2 Vfe pounds dally, and were only 7 mouths, 10 days old when sold." Mr. Wing profiled hy the advice of Dr. LoGoar, Graduate Veterinarian and Export Poultry Breeder,-of 28 years' standing. Dr. LeGoar's Hog Proscription will put weight on your hogs also, heeau.se it expels worms, purifies the blood and conditions them so that they gain flesh on less feed. lt makes no difference what ail ment is prevalent among your stock or poultry, it is money in your pocket to get the proper Dr. LoGear Remedy from your dealer, on a satisfaction or money back offer.-adv. .Policemen's Union Surrenders. Boston, Mass, Nov. 1 S-More than S.000 members of the Boston Po licemen's Union voted unanimously last night to instruct officers of the union to surrender its charter to the American Federation of Labor.

No members of the present police forco are members of the union. CASE AFTER CASE Plenty More Like This In Walhalla. Scores of Walhalla people can toll you about Donn's Kidney Pill?.
