that the call for our services which
followed. has rounded off this sequence
of events.
l have already pointed out that the
germs of disease are to be found in
the air and dust. The longer any sub
stance to be eaten is exposed to the
air. the greater the chance that germs
will be deposited on it. Bread raised
with yeast is worked down or kneaded
twice before being baked and this pro-
cess may take anywhere from four
hours to ten. 1t has, then, the chance
of collecting disease germs during this
process of raising and it has two peri
DDS of working down or kneading dur
ing each of which it may gather the
dirt containing the germs from the
bakers hands. As no bread save that
raised with yeast. goes through this
long process of raising and kneading
so no bread save that raised with Yeast
has so good a chance of gathering
germs.
What is meant by raising" bread is
worth a few words The introduction
of the yeast into the moist dough and
the addition of heat when the pan is
plaSed near the fire produces an epor-

SOME SANITARY ASPECTS OF
BREAD MAKING.
BY CYRUS EPSON, NJ. D.,

( Health Commissioner, New York City.
1t is necessary. if one would under
stand the sanitary aspects of bread
making, to fully comprehend the pres
ent theory held by scientists of germs
and the part played by them in disease.
The theory of disease germs is merely
the name given to the knowledge had
of those germs by medical men, a
knowledge which is the result of in
Vulnerable experiments. Being this,
the old term of theory" has become
q misnomer. A germ Of disease is a
plant. SO small that l do rot know
how to express intelligibly to the gen
eral reader its lack of size. When this
germ is introduced into the blood
or tissues of the body, its ac-
ton appears to be analogous to that
which takes place when yeast is added
to dough. 1t attacks certain elements
of the blood or tissues, and DESTROYS
them, at the same time producing new
substances.
But the germs of the greater part of
the germ diseases, that is, of the infec-
tious and contagious diseases, will de-
velop or increase in number without
being in the body of human being.

SHARP plows save the farm teams.
HELP costing the least money is not

SURPLUS earnings cannot be invested

than good barn.
YOU cannot afford to buy all your
home supplies, no matter how big crops
you grow To sell.
ODD times can be used 70 advantage
in cutting weeds which will seed lit

In you have no SHED or shelter of any
kind for the farm wagon, run 1t under

the rain.
Do NOT allow the farm buildings to
lack paint. The cost i covered by the
sa wing in lumber which results and the
improved appearance is worth some
thing.
CURE clover hay as carefully as pos
sible. 1t is excellent feed when nicely
cured, but loses much Of its value If
leached in curing or handled when so
dry that its leaves fall off badly.
ADOPT a system Of rotation Of crops
which is adapted TO the conditions
found on your farm. Different crops
require different food clements and
some need the elements watch others

of a portion of the starchy matter of
the four-one of the most valua BILE
nutrient elements in the -four. The
fermentation produces carbonic acid
gas. and this, having its origin in
every little particle of the starch
which is itself everywhere in the -four,
pushes aside the particles of the dough
TO give itself room. This is what is
called raising the bread.
1t needs but glance to see that it
is. in its effects on the dough, purely
mechanical. The dough, which was
before a closegrained mass, is now
full of little holes. and when cooked in
this condition is what we ordinarily
call light. This porous quality of
bread enables the stomach to rapidly
and easily digest it, for the gastric
juices quickly soak into and attack it
from all sides. The fermentation of
the dough. however, uses up a portion
Of the nutrient elements of the loaf.
If il be possible, therefore, to produce

struction and without the ''kneading"
process, which fills the dough with
germs and filth, and without the long

The handling of fresh meat is direct
ly dependent upon artificial refrigera-
ton and in no other direction are its
benefits more marked or widespread.
The cattle of the western plains have
become the daily food of those living at
the antipodes. In ten years, from 1850
to 1891, the imports of fresh beef and
mutton into Great Britain increased
from 400 to nearly $500, 600 carcasses.
During the same period the beef ex-
ports alone from the United States adj
vanced from 81, 500 to 10l, 500 tons.
Not only are meats carried in refrig-
orator vessels from America and the
antipodes to England, but within a
year Australian milk has been shipped
in frozen blocks in such quantities as
to be retailed in the streets of London
for four cents per quart. Butter,
cheese, eggs, fruits and other perish
able products are likewise transported
enormous distances by rail or water,
without injury to the quality and at a
low cost for freight.

He has tried it in over eleven hundred
cases, and never failed except in two cases
(both thunder humor). He has now in his

A benefit is always experienced from
the first bottle, and a perfect cure is war;

When the lungs are affected it causes
shooting pains, like needles passing
through them; the same with the Liver or
Bowels. This is caused by the ducts being
stopped, and always disappears in a week
after taking it.
