CERTIFIED cows. '-
' Apparently it does not pay to have
"certified” cows, milked by “certified"
v milking experts in “certified" stables
and On, “ceirtifled” stools. At least
Howard Willetts, of White Plains, who
spent a million finding out, is going
to give up the dairy business. He made
‘Gedney Farm the cleanest and most
* sanitary milk shop in the world. Two
years ago Mr. Willetts hearing a
great deal about impure milk and tu-
berculosis that came from it, decided
a. great many people would spend 15
cents a quart for milk they knew to be
absolutely. fresh. He got together the
finest herd of cows that ever chewed
a. cod and had them milked morning
and night in concrete barns by white-
frocked, white-sprouted, highly paid
milkers.
"But the iii-cent milk, however widely
advertised and sold, does not pay the
cost of \productlon. Neither did his
fancy poultry and blooded horses. Now
having sunk most of his million, he
declared he would go out of the dairy
business for good and dispose of his
show horses. Hereafter Mr. Willetts
will dcvte his time to looking after a
valuable silver mine in Colorado which
he owns,
THANKSGIVING FESTIVAL.
The Thanksgiving festival, in which
the nation unites today comes to New
England, the birthplace of the cus-
tum, with the assurance of delightful
autumn Weather for the day, and with
the prospect of a. very general partici-
pation in the sentiment, though per-
haps less so than in previous years.
The unfavorable industrial situation,
brought about by the stringency in
the money market, is thought to have
been much less severely felt in this
section than elsewhere, and in the
belief that the conditions will rapidly
right: themselves, the New England
people are finding cause for titanic
fouless.
New England farmers arc prosper-
one.
The general program with which
New England plans to observe the day
offers no features materially different
from those which have obtained in
recent years.

HOSPITAL LOSING SUPPORT.
Editor of The Sentinel.
Dear Sir:——The recent complaints
against the management (lf‘tlie Nor-
wnik Hospital by “Falrtleld” and “An
, Ex~Pailent and Frequent Visitor" meet
with such widespread approval that
they ought to be commended. For an
institution that exists ostensibly for
the healing and comfort of humanity
' to be under the dominating influence
of the "clique" has long since deprived
the Hospital of tho warm-hearted and
generous support. of this community.
When the directors nihnuge the Nor-
w‘aik Hospital; when the superinten-
dent of nurses changes her attitude
from that of an autotu'ut, to a co-opcr-
ate sympathy in the administration of
a. home for the sick; when the execu-
tive committee cease to treat every
9 Qt" honest complaint and complainant with
, ghoulish glee. then the Hospital will
snot want for fluids or friends to carry
on its ministry.

Annual Thanksgiving Rush Keeps the
Railroad Busy.
The usual rush of New Englanders
back to their homes to partake of it
real Thanksgiving tiny dinner is being
felt by the railroad company and near-
ly ali of the express trains eastbound
out of this city were yesterday and
will be today operated in two or more
sections to accommodate tilts business.
beginning yesterday afternoon those
who make on annual visit to their
homes in this section of the country
took to the rail and practically all
of the trains that. came up't'rtun New
York were run in two and in some:
cases three sections. The stringency
of the money market. and the lock of
cash does not appear to bother those
who want-to :get, home for a hunk of
that mince or pumpkin pie and several
portions of turkey and cranberries
such as can be found only in New
England, Many of the afternoon wost.
bound trains yesterday were running
heavy, indicating that some who make
their business headquarters in New
England desired to gel. to their homes
in New York or elsewhere for the fam-
ily rcu‘nions.
The railroad company c‘xpccts an
unusually heavy passenger traffic to-
night and early tomorrow, and has
made arrangements to bundle rhc busi-
neSs without delay.

BALTIMORE, Mtl., Nov. 27.~—-.lamcs
R. Garfield, Secretary of the interior,
today made an address before the
Congress of the National Drainage
Association. which will close its three

topic was National Duties and Oppor-

consideration of the subject, but. for
active aid to be given it, by the roller-
