300 soldiers of the First Independent

before the end of the llfly miles wa?
reached. Several hundred were burcly
able to walk because of sore feot ro

end officers were cursed and hissed as
they road past the men in llic column
of 4,0(10, while cries and demands for
water were pitiful.
With throats burning for water and
the temperature averaging l'JO, men
fell (rum the straggling column un
consclous by the roadside. Ambulance
and supply wagons were filled with the
sick, and private wagons were pressed
into ambulance service.
Some who recovered late last night
from thii ln.at stroke said the road
swam und wavered before their eyes
for uii hour before they toll. The lime?
stone dust tilled the piirched throuis
and nostrils of the men, and tlio'r can?
teens, emptied early In tin; day, were
not refilled for several hours.
With hair the column breaking

Here is Holstein milk.
Dutch experts taught
We want you to know
about a milk which comes
from high-bred cows, fed
in our best dairying dis?
tricts.
The milk fresh from the
cow ir. put into a vacuum.
There, at a low heat, we
evaporate two-thirds of the water.
It comes from the vacuum as thick as
thick cream?28 per cent solids, 8 per cent
butter fat.
It comes to you fresher than milkman's
trnilk. You can buy, if you wish, a month's
Supply at a time.
It gives you whole, rich milk of the high?
est grade?milk free from germs?for less,
than the milkman charges.
Costs Us $100,000
To produce this milk as they produce it
abroad v.c brought to our plant6 famous
Dutch and Swiss experts. To perfect it has
cost us, in the past seven years, about $100,
000.
But we now have a milk which Is sterilized
without scorching?an utterly germless milt.
We have a milk which won't separate.
You can now have daily, for every pur?
pose, as fine a milk as any home in any coun?
try gets.
Van Camp Packing Co?*
Indianapolis, Ind.
from our best dairy districts, which Swiss and
us how to evaporate. America's perfect milk.
A Million Users
We are milking 30,000 cows per day to
supply folks who want this milk. Our evap?
orating plants are now built in six states?
each in a rich dairying section. A million
people, as a result, enjoy this delicious milk.
Instead of buying milk from day to day,
many of them buy a month's supply at a
time. It is like having a cow In the pantry.
Instead of milk that is laden with germs
they are getting a germless milk. Instead
of a half-milk they are getting a whole milk.
Instead of milk from mongrel cows they arc
getting Holstein milk.
Yet this milk costs less than milkman's
milk, because of the saving in cost of deliv?
ery. When this milk is reduced to the usual
milk's richness, the cost will figure about six
cents per quart.
Like Using Cream
Milk dishes made with Van
Camp's Milk taste as though
made with cream.
You get here the richness
of the whole milk, just as it
comes from the cow. You
get all the butter fat, all of
the solids. And you never get
that from milkman's milk after it stands
awhile.
You'll be amazed at the difference. The
very first milk dish you make with Van
Camp's will convert you forever to it Yet
the poorest milk which any milkman delivers
costs one more than this.
Utterly Sterile
Van Camp's is an absolutely germless
milk. It is made so by sterilization.
You are drinking pure milk when you drink
it. In milkman's milk a myriad germs lurk
in every drop.
This milk, of course, costs us much more
than your milkman pays for his. But we
save the cost of the milkman's daily deliv?
ery, which costs more than the milk. That's
why v/e can give you stich milk as this at
less than the milkman's price. - * "._?.
Like No Other Milk ^
Van Camp's is not like condensed miUc,
which is nearly half sugar. It is not like or?
dinary evaporated milk. Yet it cpsts.justjths
same as the ordinary. ^
Never before has such jrulkias Van Camp's
been produced on "this side the Atlantic. It
is worth your while to find this-put-<ryji?p
single can will prove it. ' 'l^&ei^'v?l
The 16-oz. can?a
full pint of Van
Camp's?costs 10 cents.
The 6-oz. can costs 5
cents. Produced in
the best dairying sec?
tions of six states.

MOTH FEST IIE-UTEARS.
Jamnlcu Hoy's Collection Lends to Dis?
covery of Hrown-Tnll Colony There.
Albany, June 2.?Among a collection
of butterflies kept by a boy in Ja?
maica, L. I., an amateur entomologist
has discovered two brown-tall moths.
They wore Immediately sent to the
State AgrlcuAuiral Department, and
experts sent from the department
found n colony of the moths in the
boy's locality.
'I he discovery of the pest Is puzzling
to R. A. Pearson, State Commissioner
of Agriculture, who believed that every
avenue to their propagation had been
closed. Steps were at once taken to
exterminate the moths and to prevent
them from obtaining a foothold.
In the lust few years the brown-tall
moth, which is one of the most de?
structive of pests, has caused much
damage In Massachusetts, where mil?
lions have been appropriated to fight
the Insect. New York State thus far
has escaped Its ravages, and the aur
thoritics have been vigilant In keeping
Hie moth out of the State.
