The Analysis of Milk,

The chemical analysis Of milk is not
complicated or difficult, says a writer in
the dairy. A small dish is accurately
weighed, and the weight noted. Into 1t
Is now introduced small portion if
milk, and both weighed. BY subtract
ing the weight Of the dish from the
weight Of both, the weight Of the milk
is found and carefully recorded. The
dish is placed over steam jet, and the
water'of the milk evaporates, leaving a
residue. 1t is this residue which passes
under the name of solids" A last
weighing of the dish with the milk resi-.
due, less the weight Of tho dish, give,
the solids, and by single ca,,1ulation
the percentage Is found.
The solids Of milk have been fornd
by innumerable analysis to average
about 13 per cent, and, while the fot
varies in the milk from different cows
the solids left after extracting the rat
is very constant quantity, hardly ever
falling below 8 per cent. This gives
the chemist a positive basis for his CAL
culadons, and enables him to state with
great certainty whether or not the milk
has been watered. The fat or oil In
milk is determined by disSorving 1t, by
means OF either out Of the total solids.

The average fat or oil found in cows

than this Is commonly taken as showing
that the milk has been skinned. Ii

that the milk has been watered, while

applause as Mr.. Wilson denied the
charges of sectiOnalism in the bill. He
said that the animating feeling of those
who had framed this bill was to make
this country one in which ore man would
not be taxed for another, one in which
religion, science, culture and education
would go hand in hand as the common
untaxed heritage of every citizen.
Mr. Wilson closed with an eloquent ap-
peal to his fellow Democrats. He told
them that the record of the house would
permanently record no passing event, but
great epoch in American history. He
wanted every Democratic name recorded
on that historic roll. In that case, he
said, the day would be proud and hap
py one for him. His closing words were:
''In the name Of honor, in the name of
| freedom, summon every Democrat to
vote for this bill"
Mr. Wilson's glowing peroration
aroused the Democrats and the galleries
| to the highest pitch of enthusiasm, and
| the demonstration which followed his
last words has seldom been equaled in
| the house. The whole Democratic side
rose to its feet, books and records We're
| thrown in the air, cheer followed cheer,
the people in the galleries Joined with
voice and hands in the tribute. Before
| Mr.. Wilson could sit down, three of the
| Democratic members, bubbling over Hich
| enthusiasm-Messrs. Johnson Ohio,
| Tucker (Va.) and Bryan (Neb.)-rushed
| up the aisle, lifted Mr.. Wilson upon their
| shoulders and carried him in triumph to

| that were showered upon him. 1t was

could be a resting place where our manu-

be no foundation for that cry, so insidi-
Ously raised that this bill should be

worse than any bill can possibly be.
We're this bill to pass both branches to-

Mr.. Reed here quoted at length from

of their confidence in the prosperity of

opportunities has found the best place
for wages in the world Is there any

to which we are invited? Some gentle

England affords US the needed example,
that we have but to turn to her history

mists we shall find all that is necessary
for guidance and instruction. Mr.. Speak

to find how. little the example of England
can teach"
After quoting statistics to show the
great rise in wages since 1860, Mr., Reed
continued --'
''The truth is that this very question
of rising wages is what makes a good

fixed incomes think that anything which
