GRICULTURALHINTS
OF MILK.
1t Requires Constant Care and Scrip
lous Cleanliness.

It Requires Constant Care and Scrupu-
lous Cleanliness.
To those dealing with milk in any
form. the various lamentations arc
especially undesirable and are constant
sources of trouble. All the iermenta-
tions of milk, wen the common souring,
are due to the contamination of milk
with something from the exterior after
it is drawn from the COW. To prevent
these lamentations all that is neces-
sary is to treat i, in such a way that
it will not be contaminated. Simple as
it is in theory it is found to he difficult
to practice, and no practical method
has vet been devised for keeping these
fcrments out of the milk. We, there
fore. must consider the best methods of
reducing the number and keeping their
growth slow, which are absolute clean
illness and low temperature.
The great source Of these organisms
is in the unclean vessels in which milk
is handled and in the filth which sur
rounds the COW. by scrupulous e~lcanli-
ness in the barn and dairy, the number
of organisms which get into the milk
will be comparatively small. OF equal
value IS the use of low temperatures,
which should be applied Immediately
after the milk is drawn. The tempcra-
ture at which the milk is drawn is just
about right for the entrance and rapid
increase OF bacteria, and in summer
time milk cools especially slow and
never below the temperature of the
surrounding air. If. however, the milk
is CODED as soua as drawn the increase
of these bacteria is kert in check and
will not begin again except slowly I'M
i'll the milk is warmed. Cool mill; will,
therefore, keep several hours longer
than that not cooled.
Ali the abnormal lamentations of
milk, such As blue, red, S'imy, tainted
milk. cite, ar" due To the growth of or
Ganisns in the milk, and all of these
are ~p-eventable by care. If a dairy is
constantly troubled with Shiny milk or
any other abnormal trouble. Il cause is
sure to b. foun1 in some unusual or
Illumination of milk, and the remedy
mast be extra cleanliness. IT Is sell
dom caused by food Of water, but the
trouble is usually apart from the W
either in the barn or dairy. Some
times the trouble comes from COW
Certain bad normal odo:S and taiEts
in milk may be produced directly by
the food eaten by the COW. Garlic or
turnips will flavor the milk, and various
ether foods may affect the taste, but
this class of tain:S may be readily dis
tingu;shed from those due TO bacterial
growth. The odors and taints due to
the direct influence OF the food are at
their highest as soon as the milk is
drawn, never increasing afteayard.
Bat the taintS due to bacterial growth
do not appear at all in fresh milk. be-
ginning to be noticeable only after the
bacteria nave had Il chance to grow. II
trouble with taste of the milk is no.
ticcd Immediately after it is drawn. the
AUS may he looked for in the food.
If it does not appear it will some time
afterwarl, then grows rapidly worse;
it may he remcdicd by great care in
the management of the dairy or barn.

up and tied his horse to the meadow

news, had arrived at the farm, and
quite n crowd had gathered when the
partner with the expert drove up, fol-

men after they had alighted from their

The expert gave 4 glance over the
field, took a quick survey of the con-
formation of the country, and opened
his lips to speak: but before he could
a~rticulate a word, Mr.. Hobbs broke
into the conversation with a remark
| that sent the cold chills down Johnson's
spine.
"And is it them blue patches that in

THE PASSION PLAY.

Chauncey Depew says that the most
astonishing and instructive sight that he
met in Europe was the Passion Play at
Ober-Ammergau-such wonderful effect
did that spectacle make upon this great
orator. 1t shows that We are most i'm
pressed by the unusual and the unex-
pected. Still something depends upon the
condition of our health, for, when the mind
is not free, when it is hampered by pain or
stupefied with malaria We are not able to
enjoy anything. Travellers will find that
it is best to carry with them a mild Iaxa-
tive in order to guard against the changes
in food, climate, different drinking water
and the many things that cause disturb
anoes of the digestive organs. The best
thing for this purpose are the Laxative
Gum Drops. These gum drops contain
the finest laxative in the world, put up in
the best gum drop material, in which form
they will stand any changes of climate
without deteriorating. They contain no
taste of medicine and the ordinary user
will not be conscious of taking medicine
at all saw by the result which is sure and
certain. They come in two sizes, the small
size at ten cents, the large size at twenty
five cents. Get them of any dealer.
