Volume 15. WISDOM, MONTANA, FRIDAY, AUGUST Number 3 4 \J Will B b Mist Scenic Roati Park to Park Road Through the Bitter Root and Big Hole Valleys First Contemplated r -acac=SB=s msat'srss- News Snapshots Of the Week The Yellowstone park and the Glacier park are two of the world’s wonderfully beautiful playgrounds. They are attracting to Montana thousands of visitors from all parts of the world. The problem of con­ necting the two parks with a high­ way which will add to the enjoy­ ment of these visitors is one which has had prominent place in local discussion for two years or more. The delegates in the good-roads congress— wisely, we believe—-re­ frained from placing official en­ dorsement upon any one of the sev­ eral routes which have been sug­ gested, but went on record as ap­ proving the plan to connect these two great parks with automobile highways.

Close upon it in import­ ance are the Balkan family of sensa­ tional riders, the Janowsky family of novelty acrobats the three Jahns, ladder balancing sensationalists the Lorbeer trbupe, who juggle human beings; the Portia quartet of wom­ en contortortionists;the Maryland family of springboard gymnasts, the Alpine family of wire performers, Capt. I luting’s two troupes of performing seals and sealions, the Schuman performing horses, the three herds of the best trained ele­ phants on earth, Mijarez, the Mex­ ican wizard of the high wire, the Klarkonlan aerialists, and the fifty funniest clowns on earth. The great feature of the show is o f course the newly added spectacle, \Joan of Arc,” with a trainload of special scenery, costumes and stage proper­ ties and a cast of 1,200 characters There is also a ballet of 300 dancing girls, a chorus of 400 voices and an orchestra of 100 soloists. This is the greatest dramatic and spectacu­ lar production ever presented in America, enacted on a specially built stage bigger than hundred ordinary theatres. It is made port­ able so that it can be erected in the main tent each morning. This great entertainment is given as an introductory to the regular areas performance and entails no extra charge o f admission' “ Joan of Arc” tdls a masterful story from French history in a thrilling and dramatic way and with the wonderfnl illusion of tons of special scenery and stage devices.

A corps of engineers, in charge of Mr. Ober, an engineer who has had a wide experience m the Big Hole country and knows the country perfectly, is at work. It is expected that the preliminary survey will he completed within the next four or five weeks, when it is anticipated that grading will be commenced. By reason of the mild winters in this section the work of actual railroad construc­ tion can be continued at least up to Christmas, and by that time much of the first portion of the contemplated road can be finished, as far as grading is concerned. The survey of the new road cov- and bad milk is the differenee be­ tween life and death. To a great many of us milk and cream mean cither nourishment or disease Re­ cording as it is pure or impure. Typhoid epidemics have been fre­ quently traced to an impure milk supply and tuberculosis cows spread a dreaded plague to those who consume the milk. The law has given the weight of its authority to the regulation of milk by municipal ordinances and state legislative enactments These laws have for their purpose not only the safeguarding of the milk supply against disease but also the separation of all relations between the product of the cow and the far-famed milkman’s pump. Water­ ed milk has frequently drawn down the lightnings of the law as well as furnished inspiration for the pro­ fessional jokesmith. It was the subject of the following diatribe, of which a St. Louis judge recently relieved himself in the case of the city against a purveyor of diluted milk. \M ilk,” said the wearer of the ermine, \an object of profound and vigilant concern to the modern lawmaker, has always been part and parcel of the daily life, the ad­ ages and folklore of mankind. For example: We are told not to cry over spilt milk—that is, not to fret over real loss that can’t be helped. The Swede has one de­ noting hospitality, viz., When there is milk in the can for one< there is milk in the can for two. The universal, primal and spontan­ eous mental conception we have of milk, in the first instance, is that it is unwatered! We think the or­ dinance proceeds on the notion that however modi the cow waters ordinances regulating the produc­ tion and distribution of milk. As these measures entail addi- tioMUabttr and expense, on the part of those engaged iu the milk business, many of the laws have been bitterly opposed in the courts, but quite generally they have been sustained It is now clearly un­ derstood that municipalities having the usual powers may license milk was, nevertheless, perfectly whole-,,'1'™ practically a natural grade for some, the fact that the law pm-A he greater portion of the distance hihits the sale of sin h milk is final lo he traversed, and it. will Lie neo It is a matter properly witluu the :->i\ to build two or three bridges regulation of the law-making pow- at comparatively small cost.

But modern laws forbid au the village board-m a y provide: hornets'ricst to stop bleeding: don’t adulterants, whether harmless or, not. Under these regulations wa­ ter is an adulterant. So any pre­ servatives, or other unnatural sub­ stances, no matter how harmless, are adulterants. If the law for­ bids the adulteration any person who adulterates is guilty and may be punished under the law. Usual­ ly the statutes and ordinances also prohibit the sale of adulterated milk and under the usual form of the law it is not necessary to prove that the dealer knew that the milk was adulterated. It becomes his duty to see to it that the milk which Be sells is pure and up to the standard set by the law, and if these regulations as well as those i dose the patient with whisky, bran- I protecting them against impure or| rum or bifid or cover , ... , . , a wound with a handkerchief or rag weak milk.

If you are a consumer of milk, recognize your rights. You can compel the enforcement o f the reg­ ulations you now have and, if they are insufficient, you may do much to secure the passage of acts that will be adequate. (Copyright 1913, by Walter K.
