{" ONE cows milk NAV be worse than

"ONE cows milk" may be worse than
the mixed article, as proven by case In
which baby fed on the milk of one COW,
sickened and died of tubercular disease,
the COW itself dying two months later of
tuberculosis. Had the milk of that COW
been mixed with milk obtained from a
dozen others, the child would not have
received daily such large doses of the
diseased milk, and might have lived.
Probably condensed milk is as safe food
as can be used when there is any doubt
as to the quality of the ordinary milk
served to family.

The cedars OF Lebanon are now in

The Value of Willow Wood.
Popnlar solence Manthl.


On account of its comparative incom-
the willow is emineutly use
ful for the floors Of buildings designed
to he fre-proef. II grows to a large size
and furnishes n great amount of lumber.
There is white willow growing at
Stockhridgc, Mass, which, at four feet
from the ground, measures twenty-five
feet In circumference and extends its
branches fifty feet in every direction.
Tradition says II was brought from Con-
necticut IN 1907 by Il traveller, who used
it as a riding switch. The Hon. Jesse
W. Fell, in giving an account of eXpe-
riments in tree-planting on an extensive
scale In Illinois, says: "Werc | called
npon 10 designate one tree which, more
than all others, would rccommcnt for
general planting, would say unhcsita-
tingly II should he white willow"
Professor Brewer SAYS "In England,
where it is often sixty or seventy feet
high IN twenty years, there Is no wood
in greater demand than good willow.
II Is light, very tough, soft, takes good
finish, will bear more pounding and
knocks than any other wood grown there,
and hence is used for cricket bats for
floats TO paddle-wlcels Of steamers and
brake-blocks on cars. ItIs used extern
sively for turning, plaiking, coastng
vessels furniture, OK yokcs, wooden
legs, shoe lasts" etc. Fuller says: "It
growcth incredibly fast, II hcing n by
word that the profit by willows will buy
the owner horse before that by other
trees will pay for saddle" The basket
willow, well cultivated, will yield a net
income of $50 n year TO the acre. On
the whole, therefore, II would seem that
the various kinds Of willow, the ccono-
mic value Of which has been hitherto
entirely overlooked IN orr country, are
cmincntiy deserving of attention, and
will amply reward thosc who cultivate
them.
