MILK SUPPLY OF BED-WBLLTY.
MILK SUPPLY OF BED- WBLLTY. MAXIMUM PRIG "33 FIXEO. Mr John Crew presided at the ordinary meeting of the Bedwellty Food Control Control Committee At Aberbargoed on Monday, wheh a further protracted diaoattsion took plaoe in reference to the supply of milk and the oharges for the same. The Chairman stated that as the re- tutt of oomplainta made by retailers of the difference in price of a penny per quart in the milk sold in the! adjoining areas to that in the Bed. weUty area, Mr Williams, from the Divisional Milk Distribution Depart- ment, had risited the district and investigated the matter, with the result that he recommended the Com- mittee to increase the price of milk in their district to the maximum rate, so as to ensure a constant supply to the district, particularly for the aged people and the children. 44 This was advisable, especially as the surround- ing areas itro doing: no, and it will avoid the excese of some retailers that they are unable to get a supply of milk." The Chairman explained that it had been stated at a previous meet- ing that a Morgan Jones, who was a large retailer, had said he was satis- fied with the price at 9d, but when I' seen by the Commissioner. Jones I stated emphatically that he was not satisfied, and he contended that if the price was made at the uniform rate of lOd per quart they would be able to get a greater supply into the Bed- wellty Division. He suggested that they should now change their price if only f"r a two mouths' trial to see whit her the I'!uppl" was improved. He htrougly It i vocted this particular- ly in the interests of the Blackwood people, where the shortage was of a serious matter. Councillor Evan Thomas pointed out that the retailer had to pay the same price to the w holesaler whether he resided in the Bedwellty or any other district. He did not think that the retailers had done their dnty in trying to get a supply of milk into the district. He therefore moved that the prices remain—Councillor Edgar Davies said there was a link between the wholesaler and the re- tailer, and it appeared to him that the latter would not send the milk into a district where the top prices were not in force. He blamed the authorities for not moving in the matter. It was said that a supply of I milk could be obtained from Qreoon cheaper than from Cox's, but he had heard nothing further about the sup- ply coming on. Mr Button maintained that the Government was entirely to blame in not tackling the wholesaler. Mr Lane said be had the figures of one retailer in their area who distri. buted 15 gallons of local and 26 gallons of imported milk, and made a nett profit of R,7 7..0d. per week, after deducting ïU low. Od. for the keep of two horses, it would readily be seen that the balance was not a living WH00 far a nojl OW boy. Councillor T. Edwards said that three of the New Tredegar vendors who had complained to him of the price threatened. to down tools" unless jkhe Committee fixed the maxi- mum price of IOJJ. After some further discussion, Councillor W. Bnfton moved that the maximum price of lOd per qaart for delivered milk come into opera- tion from Monday next and remain in force for two months. Six voted for r Bafton's amend- ment, and five for Mr ThomM* motion. It was decided on the motion oi Councillor Edgar Davies to conven- a conference of all the local author ities with a view to a joint petition to the Ministry of Milk Supply, to take some action in regard to the whole- salers, with a view to a reduction of the existing maximum prices.

TIRPHIL LANDSLIDE AOAINI ON…
TIRPHIL LANDSLIDE AOAIN I ON T"E MOVE. The continuous downfall of rain during December and January— which disproves the theory that the heavy rains of last summer were due to the bombardments in France—has again caused the landslide between Pontlottyn and Tirphil to get on the move and cause a deal of anxiety to the authorities. Last week we re- I ported that the Rhymney and Aber Company's 12 inch water main had given way for a considerable distance, interfering with the supply of water for Bargoed and other districts. Since then the main road, a little north of Troedrhiwfuwch, has given way to a depth of one foot. The matter is in the hands of the Surveyor to the Gelligaer Council. The Rhymney Railway Company, too, are taking precautionary measures, And their trains travel along the base of the slip at caution rate. t Q!

IWAR BONDS FROM SALVAGE.
WAR BONDS FROM SALVAGE. A SCHEME TO HELP RETURNING HEROES. One cf the most interesting and useful [ schemes for greeting our solcliprs en ilioir reo turii Iroll active service has arisen under the auspices of the National Saivage Courcil. The coujitry districts arc wide awake Lo the pos- sibility cf making a profitable collection of ''waste materials. The waste is collected in e veil village and sent to a centre for sale, the contribution from each place is carefully ear-nifi rked," and the money received for it when soiil is spent on War Bonds for the men of that nart-icuilar village. The more waste collect the more money comes back to the collectoi. for the benefit of the village. WASTE STILL WANTED. The work of waste saving goes on. as it has meaty important uses still, although the fighuni over, and more raw materials can. safety be brought into the country. Those wh. have helped the Scheme may be glad to know this, and that there will always be a luaiket. rjr "waste, if collected systemati- cal] », ar.d in sufficient quantities. Thrift willl I therefore help trade, and" also in rural dis- t,.ict- msuy a pound may be made to benefit I some hospital, institution, charity, or benefi- cent Nche/ne. The money made through the Rural Section of the National Salvage Coun- cil has r .ready done much in this way. Many war cha1 ties, War Hospital Supply Depots, and otho institutions have profited by the saUvi of rubbish collected, and either for- warded 'o London for sale through the Rural Section o: sold locally. I Womb's institutes also are becoming very keen to neip, and members would do well to sav( all rubbish until they have a market- able qv "tity, and then sell it for the benefit of the institution. lip to the present time all profir, made from the sale of waste, that ia not returned to col- lectors -w specially desire it, is set aside for the Joint War Committee of the Red Cross Order of -St. John. Many depots which were opened more than two years ago are still working, and new ones are constantly start- ing, in ail parts of t,he country. lliosc who are interested in the work of fighting waste in all its forms should send Z postcard to the Lady Ambei st of JTackney, Haad r." the Rural Section, National 'e C. cil., Caxton House, Tothill-street, S W.1.
