d How to sterilize, Milk.

Take tin pail and have made for It
Q false bottom perforated with holes
and having legs half an inch high TO
allow circulation CT the water. The bot
tie Of milk to be treated is set on this
false bottom, and the pail is filled with
water until it reaches the level Of the
surface of the milk in the bottle. Ahole
may be punched in the cover Of the bot
tie, in which cork is inserted, and the
thermometer is put through the cork, SO
that the bulb dips into the milk, and
the temperature can thus be watched
without removing the cover. This wa.
ter is then heated until the milk reaches
q temperature Of 1855 degrees F., when
it is removed from the heat and allowed
to cool gradually. A temperature Of $50
degrees maintained for half an hour is
sufficient to destroy any germs likely to
be present in the milk, and it is found
in practice that raising the temperature

stand in the heated water until cool in

quired time.

the native kings Of both have been per,
mitted to rule under the title of rajahs,
the Dutch directing their action by res
ident agents. Both islands recently re.
belled, and the Dutch made the same
mistake as in Snmatra, that of sending
q small force at first. The three columns
which marched into, Lo1nbok were am.
pushed and suffered disgraceful defeats.
This reused all the vigor Of the Dutch
in Java and very nearly caused polit-
ical revolution in Holland; 5000 SOL
diers were hurried forward from Bata-
via, and large detachments were sent
from Holland, SO it is but a question OF
a few months fighting, as the people of
Lombok and Boil are poor soldiers.
Although of the same Malay stock,
they are far inferior to the Javanese.
The rajah of Boil, as he appeared be-
fore, the Dutch governor general in his
finest robes of state, resembled colored
servitor out for a holiday rather than a
king, but the rajah Of Lombok, or king,
as heis sometimes called. is man of
far more royal appearance. The island
is chiefly valuable to the Dutch on &C.
count of its tin mines. The people are
Mohammedans, except a few remnants
in the mountains Of the heather aborig.
