Is aiding school dis

results In construc

is well Illustrated by
the summary of the
report for 1914, just
issued in printed
form by the board.
This shows that new
schools were built In all but ten of the
counties of the State, not Including the
cities of Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.
These included 177 large buildings and
119 additions. The board approved
all of these plans and in addition
notes that fifty-three of the smaller
type of buildings were constructed
from plans furnished by the board.
The hoard was asked for 285 plans
for standard school buildings, several
of them of large size.
The report summarizes what has
been done in the way of acquiring nor
mal schools and the steady growth of
the school fund. \

him to the law governing appeals.
This ends, as far as the commission
is ooncerned, proceedings that have
*een under way for eight months or
more, the present commission accept
ing what was done by the former com
mission. The proceedings were marked
by some lurid interviews at Philadel

missioners. In its decision the com
mission takes the position that what
Abbott asks is a rehearing, notwith
standing his contention here on May 28
that it was a new hearing he asks. It
is stated that the commission can re
open the case on cause shown, but
that the logical step is now an appeal
to the courts.

ESTIMATES MUST
REMAIN IRI FORCE
Governor Indicates Policy in His
Veto of a Philadelphia Con
tract Amendment
Governor Brumbaugh last night an
nounced his veto of the McNichol Sen
ate bill amending the first class city
act of ISBS in sections relating to con
tracts. The Governor says that the
effect of the bill would be to do away
entirely with the preliminary estimate
on contracts which Is now the limit.
"It would relieve an official from sit
ting down and counting the cost of
any proposed municipal Improvement
before proceeding with its construc
tion," says the Governor. "In public
affairs as in one's private affairs it is
always wise to 'look before you leap.'
To start the city upon an enterprise
without a previous estimate of the cost,
which estimate would be restrictive
upon future outlays, would be most
hazardous. There are doubtless some
cases where such preliminary esti
mate would not be necessary, and it
may at times be difficult to measure
even approximately some desired im
provements, but such cases ought not
to outweigh the larger safety and
benefit which present law throws about
the city's expenditures."
The Governor also vetoed the House
bill to prevent municipalities from
opening streets through lands of any
educational Institution conducted by
the Commonwealth. He Bays the title
is defective and in any event no mu
nicipality can take state land. He
holds that the bill is superfluous as
far as certain facts apply and that "to
legislate for a situation that is anom
alous.is not wise."
Other vetoes anncmnced are:
House bill amending act of 1895
relative to rebuilding of county bridges
destroyed by fire or flood, on which
the Governor says: "Its language is
not clear. It may Involve the State
in rebuilding all county bridges" and
"would relieve counties of expenses
they should bear and put an undue
burden on the commonwealth."
Senate bill amending methods of
obtaining charters for second class
corporations, on which the Governor
says: "This bill would allow a cor
poration to begin business with S6OO
In its treasury. It does away with
publication of notice of Intention to
apply for charters. The oeople ought
to know what they legally license.
* * * The present law has not kept
industries from our state and is suf
ficiently lucid and effective to answer
all practical purposes. Moreover, it
is now well known and generally ap
proved."
Senate bill amending foreign cor
poration act to permit laundry com
panies chartered in other states to
hold real estate in Pennsylvania. The
Governor says: "Unfortunately, the
acts to be repealed are not correctly
cited and the bill is defective."

PAXTANG AMUSEMENTS
The Rajahs, who appear at the Pax
tang Park theater this week in an in
teresting mind reading act, have made
an extraordinary proposition which
they promise to carry out on Friday
evening. Madam Rajah has promised
to answer any question that anyone
may put to her.
The promise to locate stolen or lost
articles; tell tiie whereabouts of mis
sing people, etc., in fact the pretty
East Indian promises a satisfactory
answer to almost any question her
auditors may ask of her. This prom
ises to be a most interesting perfo'rm
ance, well calculated to demonstrate
the extent of the power of the much
talked of Hindoo mysticism, if there is
such a power. The claims of the Rajahs
are so sweeping and they promise so
much that a person is at once puzzled
and amused when he sees their per
formance, while the show they promise
for Friday evening seems beyond the
realm of possibility.
The other acts on the park bill make
up a most excellent vaudeville show.

exceptional ability, being one of tho

Do You Know Why Cow's Milk
Will Not Do For Your Baby?
Many mothers who cannot nurse their babies think that
cow's milk is a safe substitute. But it is not. You can't
depend on getting cow's milk fresh and pure. Nearly all
milk is 30 hours old when you get it. You can't be aura
that the dairy is clean or the cow free from consumption.
Even were you sure, still the milk would not do for your
baby. Cow's milk is intended for strong calves. Your baby's
tender little stomach cannot digest the heavy curds in
cow's milk. It struggles under such an unfair load and
finally becomes weak and ill. Give your baby the food
nearest to mother's milk—

WEED SEEDS USED
TO DEFRAUD FOLKS
Department of Agriculture Agents
Unearth Some Unique Schemes
in Use of Molasses
A number of prosecutions have been
ordered by agents Of the Department
of Agriculture against dealers located
in various sections of the State for the
sale of feeding stuft's found to have
been sold in violation of the law.
They include several cottonseed meals
adulterated with cottonseed hulls, sev
eral poultry foods adulterated with
large quantities of weed seeds and a
number of other feeds misbranded
and incorrectly labeled.
A number of cases were considered
representing a certain brand of ma
terial sold as a feed which is a mix
ture of a small percentage of sphag
num moss, used as an absorbant, and
containing a large proportion of mo
lasses. This product is being sold at
about $35 per ton, and while the law
was not being violated in the sale of
this product, it is felt -that consumers
of feeding stuffs should be informed
of the small amount of feeding value
which it contains, as it is very low in
protein, containing not over six per
cent, of combined protein and fat.
The nature of the product is simply
molasses, which is absorbed by the
moss and contains about twenty per
cent of water. (The department
agents say they cannot understand
why this product should be sold in
the nature of a feed at the high price
charged, as it would appear that it
would be better economy to buy the
molasses in its original form for feed
ing purposes. The attention of the
feeders is, therefore, called to this sit
uation in order that they may note
carefully the method of labeling of all
feeds sold, and to determine for them
selves whether or not they should
purchase "straight" molasses or mo
lasses which has been diluted and ab
sorbed by moss.

politan Newspaper to Help Pre
pare Scenarios
Hector Turnbull Is giving up his po
sition as dramatic critic of the New
York Tribune in order to become as
sociated with the scenario department
of the Jesse L. Lasky Feature Play
Company. Mr. Turnbull is the brother
of Miss Margaret Turnbull, the noted

the staff of the Tribune some two
years ago, he had already acquired a
substantial reputation as a magazin*
writer for the most desirable publi
cations.
Interesting Career
Mr. Turnbull has had a most Inter
esting career. At only se\s«nte«n
years of age, he enlisted in the United
States Field Artillery and served at
various army posts in the United
States and in the Phililpineg, during
the native insurrection that imme
diately followed the Spanish War.
Some time after leaving the army h«
wrote a series of articles advocating
the restoration of the canteen ana the
movement was sponsored by Mr. Gar
rison who was then Secretary of War.
Mr. Turnbull took the stand th%t the
proper conduct of the canteen? was
better for the army than conditions
which would result from its elimina
tion.
Mr. Turnbull has recently, in addi
tion to his work as dramatic critic,
devoted considerable time to the writ
ing of vaudeville sketches, several Of
which have been recently produced
with notable success.
