THE DAY AFTER THE DAY
, ( BEFORE
The feast of thanks is over.
And Friday dawns on us,
And though we should be happified,
We're half inclined to cuss.
Why do we feel unhappy? •.
Now wasn't yesterday, ....
The day when 'midst .thanksgiving
hearts
We feasted care away?
We drank the near-hard cider
We took the t-urkey down,
(Our turkey 's name was chicken), but
Don't tell it 'round the town.
'Mid sauces, meats and gravies
We worked with frantic zeal ,
With pickles, cakes, and pumpkin pies
We leveled off our meal.
We feasted with such gusto
And wined with such rare taste
In vain we tried to buckle up
The belt around our waist.
What sweet contentment filled us,
When rising from the feast!
We cared not though our cheeks were
flushed
And though our vest was greased.
To-day we look wit' jaundic ed eyes
Upon a cruel woild,—
De reason for de point of view :
De stomlck has recoiled .
Items from the Cider Press
(Apple Hills Leading Weekly Paper.)
The local grange was the scene of a
lively debate last Thursday night on the
question "Resolved , That an intelligent
married couple can live together in
peace and harmony." The affirmative
side was presented by the ladies, Mrs.
Nate Wintergreen, Mrs. Wisp O'Hay,
and Mrs. Claude Foote. The negative
side was represented in the argument by
the gentlemen, Mr. Nate Wintergreen,
Mr. Wisp O'Hay and Mr. Claude Foote.
The affirmative had all the better of
the debate and the judges awarded the
decision to the ladies, who argued ,
Resolved , That an intelligent married
couph? can live together in peace and
harmony. However, in the heat of-the
debate the men gave several incidents
in their married lives where peace and
harmony was lacking. This so enraged
the ladies that none of them have spoken
to their respective husbands since the
tilt.
And so local grangers are still the
least bit disinclined to accept in toto the
verdict set forth by the jud ges. A few,
even , have hinted that there should be a
new trial , inasmuch as new evidence has
developed which might cause the judges
to reverse their decision. The judges,
however, say they know when they are
well off and their decision stands, as is.
How We Ham Things
Most of us make a dreadful mess of
life. We play our part about as well as
does one who, having played nothing but
chords on the piano , attempts a compo-sition
of a master.
Hershey, Pa.
Dear Dec Ja y Gee Nov. 8, 1925.
% Smokestack:
You are always complaining that not
enough people contribute to your col-umn
, so my wife and I decided to write
you just a friendly little letter to let you
know that we enjoy your Smokestack
very much , even the poultry you write
at the head of the column. I am not so
keen for the poultry end of it but the
missus thinks if you had entered your
poultry at the Sesqui-Centennial along
wi th Harry Pontius' Whi te and Black
Minorcas, Hershey would have brought
home three prizes instead of two.
Last ni ght at fifteen minutes after
nine the missus was bound to tune in on
them two foreigners , I forget their
names, the woman playing the fiddle a
spell and then t he man playing the
piano. I didn 't rare much for their
music. My wife said it was too high
toned for me to appreciate. Then she
went on to tell as how the piano used in
this entertainment was one the great
composer , Chopin , used to practise on
in hi s later years. You would think ,
wouldn 't you , th e same as the wife and I
thought thai C-b-o-p-i-n spells "chop-pin?"
Hut that is nowhere near right.
The right way to say it is "Show-pan."
One piece, about the coal regions, I liked
pretty good, The name of it was "Dc:
Miner. " Then t here was an army
piece, "A Major ," nnd in this piece you
could almost sec tin: major leading bis
men It) victory, il seemed.
Well , I have wri tten a nice long letter ,
longer than I calculated to write , and if
you see lit In put tills in the Press, please
corre ct my mistahi'st in grammar and
spelling.
Well , 1 imist clothe: now as \his in the
last sheet on my tabic ;.
Yours very resiu -clivcly,
Mis. and Mr. Adams Apple ,
U Lov« Blind?
"Why in it nonnense to pretend that love
is blind?" asked Ihu Man with the Cedar
Chest.
"I always thouglil it was blind. Isn 't
it?" asked the Man with the Wooden Leg.
"No sir. You luiver saw a man that
didn 't sen more in bis sweet htm l than
others did."

Sixty Thousand Gallons of
— Fre&h -Milk-Reeeived Daily
Holstein Cows Pasturing on the Succulent Meadows of the Hershey Fvrms
Farming and dairying are important
industries in Hershey. Every morning
approximately 60,000 gallons of fresh ,
creamy milk from grass-fed Holstein
cows are delivered to the chocolate and
cocoa factory from the Hershey-in-spected
herds of the neighboring farms.
The Hershey farms total 8000 fertile
acres situated in eight townships. Herds
of Holstein cows pasture on the suc-culent
meadows, producing the pure and
fresh milk that plays such a vital part
in the superior quality, delicious flavor
and nutritive value of Hershey's sweet
milk chocolate.
The typical Hershey farm comprises
a model dairy, with its own equipment
and force of workers. The barns are
equipped with approved labor-saving
devices and every detail of the work is
carried out with the strictest attention
to cleanliness and sanitation. Visitors
come from all parts of the world to see
in practical operation every process of
progressive farming and dairying as
applied on the Hershey farms.
All the cows thatjurnish the milk for
the factor y, whether Hershey owned or
not , are subject to frequent inspection
so that by no possible chance can any
milk be delivered that is not up to the
high standard of purity that Hershey's
sweet milk chocolate demands. After
passing exacting tests at the dairies, the
milk is received at the chocolate factory
and is subjected to final tests, and then
goes to the condensers.
The milk after it comes from the con-densers
is freed of its water, which con-stitutes
seven-eights of its bulk. The
milk solids in Hershey 's sweet milk
chocolate constitute approximately one-fift
h of its weight , which , in a ten-cent
cake of sweet milk chocolate is equiva-lent
to one-half pint of liquid milk.
Milk is Nature's best food. It con-tains
a considerable percentage of pro-tein
, which is a body-building material.
With its fats it provides heat and energy.
Again , cream of milk fat is a nerve food ,
containing that most important of
vitamincs, fat soluble "A". Milk is at
the same time our best lime food and in
general our best mineral food. It is
chemicall y a perfectl y balanced food ,
upon which one never will and never
can develop an acid-saturated state of
the tissues of the body, because milk
contains the base-forming elements
which neutralize acids formed in the
system. Not only is milk the best lime
food , but it is the besj: of all foods for
supplying the organic salts of potassium,
phosphorus, magnesium, sodium,
chlorine, iodine, silica and those other
materials found in the human body in
small quantities, but most vitally needed
in those small quantities.
This applies not alone to bone and
tooth structure, but also to brain and
nerve cells-—which cannot function
without lime and phosphorus—and to
various of the ductless glands, which
depend upon lime, phosphates, and
sodium salts to stimulate their normal
functioning.
The greater quantity of milk received
at the Hershey Chocolate Company is
produced by Holstein cattle. The Hol-stein
are rapidly occupying the richer
and more important dairy sections of the
country. They were introduced from
the provinces of North Holland and
Freisland , a section of the Kingdom of
Netherlands. The dairymen of these
provinces are descendants of the ancient
Freisians, and there cattle are lineal
descendants of the cattle bred by them
two thousand years ago. From the
earliest account of dairy husbandry
these cattle have been used and de-veloped
for dairy purposes.
Holsteins not Subject to Disease
A noble characteristic of the Holsteins
is their adaptability to varying climatic
conditions. They were brought to their
present high standard on the rich
meadows of Holland , and they have
lost none of their rugged ness by their
removal to the Western Hemisphere.
The Holstein cows are not subject to
disease, especially tuberculosis,- as are
the Jersey cows. Jersey cows some-times
give milk that the young calves
can not digest. This is because of the
considerable amount of cream and the
large amount of the fat globules—two
conditions that tend to render milk in-digestible.
The Holstein excels in milk produc-tion
. Looking upon one of its model
cows, the broad loin and rump art a fit
support of its capacious udder. The
straight lines and well rounded body
cannot detract from milk production.
Large size in the Holsteins is the first
t hing to impress the casual observer , and
its importance should never be disre-garded.
To this form of these cattle is
due their extraordinary constitutional
vigor or vital force, and it affects all
their relations to their food , care and
production.
It is today a widely recognized fact
that milk from the large and vigorous
Holstein cattle possess a quality known
as vitality, and that this quality is equal
in importance to the chemical composi-tion
of milk. It is also well recognized
that the vitality of milk is closely as-sociated
with the animal producing it,
and that the quality is communicable to
the consumer whether man or beast .
To the average individual milk is
milk, and how much does he know about
its origin, its chemical composition , its
value as a food , its diverse character and
the variety of its effects on the human
system?
Many people think of milk as a bever-age
rather than a food , and do not realize
that milk adds much to the nutritive
value of a meal.
As previously stated , the milk solids
in Hershey 's Sweet Milk Chocolate
constitute approximately one-fifth of its
weight , which , in a ten-cent cake, is
equivalent to one-half pint of liquid
milk , constitution .015 of protein and 85
calories of energy.
This would be equal to 2 eggs, ]/ 2 lb.
of chicken; yi lb. of potatoes; 1 lb. of
beets; \]A lbs. of spinach; 1 1-4 lb. of
t urnips; 1 3-'f lbs. lettuce ; 1 lb. cabbage;
yi lb. salt codfish.
a,Because of its cream , persons have a
feeling that it is more desirable, possess-ing
more nourishment, and being, t here-fore,
of greater value. This is an er-roneous
n otion. It is this very cream—
really the fat in the milk from which
butter is formed—that contains the
element of the greatest* danger to the
dige stive organs. It" is not the fat
(cream), but the proteins in milk (the
tissue, muscle, bone and blood makers)
that for m the ingredients of greater
value in milk.

The new Charlie Chaplin motion
picture comedy, "The Gold Rush, " has
been described-by those closely associ-ated
with the world' s greatest comedian
as a symbolical autobiography of the
grea t star himself.
With that genius which peculiarly is
Chaplin 's own, and against a back-ground
of the Klondike gold stampede
into Alaska , the screen-comedian has
depicted with subtly tender and delicate
master strokes, the struggle, of man 's
eternal search for happiness, its heart-breaks
and its tears ; ils humor, its
laughter and its jovs.

A pork production club , the purpose
of which is the more economical produc-tion
of pork , has been organized by a
number of farmers' in this section of
Dauphin County under the auspices of
the County Agricultural Kxtension
Association.
L. C. Madi son , State College swine
specialist , spoke at the initi al 'meeting
here last week- and others present were

C. Saultley, L. H. Har per , C. K. Cassel ,
John II . Moyer , Jr., Clayton Gingrich ,
John K. Zoll , Sr. and County Agent R.
R. Hur tner.
Selection of breeders , modern sanitary
methods and rations were Ihe major
subjects discussed by the local men.
Madison recommended a ".1-3-2-1"
mi xture for breeding slock and for
young pigs up until the time they weigh
12.r> pounds. Plenty of exercise for
brood sows was emphasized by the
specialist , w ho also recommended a
mineral mixture, to build up the bones of
bl eeders, The formula for Ihe mineral
mixture is: Equal pails by weight of
ground limestone , hydcuted lime or well-slacked
lump lime , l(i per cent, acid
phosphate or ground bone meal , salt, and
charcoal.
1 ho McClnm t ounly system of sani-t
a t i o n lo control swine diseases was
recommended. Farmers using this sys-tem
have been successful m having
three more pigs per litter produced and
have found Ihal Ihe average gain at four
months was !!H pounds greater per head.
Counting the value of pigs at the wean-ing
age and t h e increase value , of pork ,
in creased Incomes averaging $<M per

(he Met'lain County system. Madison
said.
The'members of Ihe club will nieel

t heir 1926-27 season on Thursday eve-ning
when they play Elizabethtown Big
Five at Elizabethtown.
The Jun ior Olivets, who were the
junior champions of Dauphin , Lebanon
an d Lancaster counties last year, having
won twenty-five out of twenty-eight
games of which seven were won in extra
periods.
The schedule this year is composed of
such teams as Lancaster Red Roses,
Millersburg, Lykeris, Lebanon Archers,
Elizabethtown Big Five, and many
other teams of high calibre.
The members of the team are Walter
Strine, (Capt), Geo. Zimmerman, V.
Tinney, Harold Hummer, Charles Hum-mer,
H. Baker, Deppen and Owen.
All home games will be played Wed-nesday
evenings on the Men 's Club floor
The old Olivet team grew from a
Scout team to a championship five.
This quintet in a year or so should be as
good as the combination of Stover ,
Strine, Clark , Elliott and Leithiser.
As it is, the boys need our support .
Let 's give it to them as we used to do
years ago.
"Poker Faces ' on
Tuesday Evening
One of the fiercest fights ever staged
before the camera was staged in "Poker
Faces," the Universal Jewel which will
be the attraction at the Hershey Central
Thea tre on Tuesday-evening, Nov. 30th ,
at 7.30 o'clock. Laura La Plante and
Edward-Everett Morton are the stars.
Fight scenes are always left until the
last because movie fight scenes are
noted for their wear and tear on clothing
and the likelihood <>( a blackened eye or
a puffed lip both detrimental to the
screenin g of ante helium shots.
George Siegman . one of the most
noted villains in pictures and Tom
O'Brien , another famous "heavy, "
staged the fight under the direction of
Harr y Pollard.
All the way through the story is a
humorous succession of mistakes and
amusing situations , according to those
who have been privileged to sec preview
of "Poker Faces. "
In the cast of this picture , beside
those already mentioned , ^are Tom
Ri cketts and Dorothy Revier.
