NEW GUNNER DRlNh.-Au LII
glish dairy paper tells of a new use for
skim milk. After the milk has been
creamed by the centrifuge the skim
milk is sterilized by heating to destroy
all bacteria or germs of ferment or OF
other possible means of injury to its
keeping. The milk is then charged
with pure carbonic acid gas at high
pressure and placed in syphon bottles,
from which it can be drawn at any
time. The milk so treated, it is
claimed, will remain sweet indefinitely.
The medical profession has taken hold
of the carbonated milk and is pre-
scribing it for persons who have not
been able to digest whole milk. 1t is
said to be very valuable and most
easily digested
A CAUSE OF BALDNEss.-The wear.
ing of tight, close fitting hats and
caps has been found responsible for
much of the badness among men.
Men never lose hair below where
the hat touches the head. The close
cap holds the heat and perspiration,
thereby the hair glands become weak
and the hair falls out Hence women's
bonnets are now pronounced bless
ing by some men afflicted with bald
ness, since women are never bald eX-
cept by disease. -Ex.

TIE New York journal OF Com
merce says; There is hardly an article
in the line of vegetables and fruit that
can not be purchased more cheaply in
cans than in natural condition, except
during short period each year when
the market is glutted with the green
stock. In the instance Of vegetab les
the canned article frequently turns
out to be more palata bic, OF better
flavor and in every way superior to
the green truck sold by the average
retail grocer. This doubtless accounts
in some measure for the steady in
crease in the business in those partic,
ular lines. At the present time prices
are comparatively low, or, at the least,
moderate: and the impression prevails
that as long as cost is kept within the
means of the great body of consumers
the consumption is bound to steadily
increase 1t may be claimed, and
properly, too, that the cheapness OF
dried vegeta bles and fruit is an obsta-
Gle, since they are in favor where
household economy is forced by cir.
cumstances; but, admitting this,
enough facts remain to justify the
opinion that the canned goods trade ia
more likely to gain steadily than to
fall off.
PRESERVING MHK.-The Herald S
European edition reports marked sue
cess in a method adopted in France
for the preservation of milk.
1t has been found that when taken
fresh from the cows and placed in a
receptacle with compressed oxygen
and finally stored in twenty-five gal
lon cans at a pressure Of two atmos'
pheres, it will travel for months in
perfect condition. tits said that milk
thus treated and sent from Lyons to
London develops neither germs nor
ferments, while it will stand temper
ature almost up to the boiling point
without coagulating. 1t is claimed BY
NJ. Nillon, who has experimental il
this way with milk on large scale
that when so treated it is freed from
germs of tuberculosis, But this has
yet to be conclusively proven. If thu
progress suggested by HIM is made
practicable for dairymen generally /
will be of great value to consumers
Some very decided improvement in TIT
present method of canning and ship
ping milk is desirable. Much will b.
gained if farmers at long distance
form'great centers Of population cal
be enabled to supply these market
with milk in a perfectly healthy an
sweet condition. IN. Y. Herald.
