The only difficulty that we can see in carrying out the idea ageing the milk. Who will milk the whale? Nobody has ever tried it, and it isn't known whether or not the moral nature of the whale will permit such liberties being taken. Of course if you could get a whale of good disposition, one that is kind and affectionate by nature, there would be no difficulty; but suppose you run across a whale that is vicious, and just as you get a pail full of milk, she flaps her tail around and catches you in the eye, and then steps in the pail? Though, come to think of it, a whale could n't step in the pail, because she has n't any feet —bdut we don’t know as that makes any difference, either—for a yardstick has three feet and it can 't step ina pail, But really and truly and no joking, we don't see how this whale milk industry is to be cul- tivated. Suppose a man wants to go into it for a speculation, and he advertises in advance that he will supply whale’s milk to all kinds of invalids at lowest prices, with reduced rates to clubs, It will be his object of course to keep a stock of thoreughbred whales, though grades would not be undesirable. In order to get the best stock, he would have to send a vessel after his whales and lasso a brood in their watery fastnesses. Then he'd tow them into port. Then the only way they could be milked, as it looks to us, would be by a diver, and as sure as you live if a stranger went poking around a whale in a suit of diving armor, he ‘d be certain to tickle her, and that would make her laugh, which would be liabie to cur- dle the milk, But how could he milk into a pail under water? The water would run into the pail in that case as freely as it does in ordinary milbing on land, and the result would be milk like that in every- day use, with possibly not quite so much water. No- body is more friendly than we to new industries of this character, and we are glad to encourage anything that will ameliorate the condition of invalids, but the whale milk business strikes us as being a trifle far- fetched, Better leave the whale to furnish stiffening for women's dress-waists, and let its milk accom- plishments remain uncultivated.—Rocklacd, Me., Courter-Gazette.
