TUBERcI.E BAo1LLI IN MILK.

air. In the udder of a healthy cow it is
sterile, but in tubercu1ous cows, where
the milk glands are involved, tuberole
bacili may find their way into the milk
in considerable quantity. Quite recently
ex-Vice President Morton was compelled
to kill number of his celebrated herd
of well bred cattle ON this account
The use of milk as food by those i'll
with some infectious disease, and the
use of bottles as a means of transporta-
ton combine to expose pure milk to the
contamination of disease germs in q
way that there is only one means of pre-
venting, and that is sterilization of milk
and the bottles or cans in which it is
conveyed.
In Boston not long ago two investiga-
tors examined a large number of speci-
mems of milk and found that ON the
average the milk obtained in a clean
stable from healthy COWS, MIXED with
every precaution into sterile TASKS, con-
tanned $50 bacteria to the cubic cent?
meter about one-fOurth of a teaspoon
full. When, however, the Inilkman used
an ordinary milk pail of f1aring form,
seated himself with more or less dis
turbance of the bedding and vigorously
shook the udder over the pail during
the process of milking, the number was
very much higher-on an average OF
30, 800 bacteria to the cubic centimeter.
The average of 15 samples taken from
the tables of persons living outside Bos-
ton was SO, 143 per cubic centimeter,
the average of 81 samples taken from
milk wagons was Q, 800, 500 per cubic
centimeter, while an average of 8 SAM
pies from groceries IN the city Of Boston
was 4, SIT, 900 per cubic centimeter.
Professor Renk found in the milk sup
ply of Halle from 6, 600, 600 to 80, oOO,-
900 per cubic centimeter, number con-
siderably greater than usually found In
the sewage of American cities.
All this goes to show the Importance
of having all the milk used for drinking
purposes thoroughly sterilized, and no
process can be regarded as proper that
fails to bring the temperature up to $50
or 100 degrees f. for at least 20 min
utes.
Any family can, with little trouble
and care, sterilize their own milk for
drinking purposes All that is requisite
is a water bath in which the milk in
closed in a clean bottle can be raised to
a temperature of $50 or 100 r. A good
thermometer is also indispensable. The
great Importance Of all this arises from
the fact that milk is not only a useful
but is the most valuable of all foods for
infants and invalids and very agree
able beverage for any one to drink.
Many people say: "Oh, can't drink
milk / like it, but it does not agree
with nae. . This is evidence that the
milk they have been using il not pure,
that bacterial changes have taken place
in it, all of which could be avoided iG
the milk were steriliEed. as .

BACTERIA IN MIX.


Especial Correspondence.I
PHILADELPHIA, May 20. Modern re-
search has developed the fact that much
of the milk used in our cities and towns
is unfit for drinking purposes. No mat
ter how healthy the COWS may be, the
contamination of milk from extraneous
sources with bacteria is now generally
acknowledged by the medical profess
sion DIR. Alfred 8. Houghton, recently
employed as an expert by the departments
of labor mt Washington to examine into
the biological and chemical constituents
of the air in the slums of New York and
this city, and who has been making and
lis still making Investigations at the Car
negie laboratory in New York city into
the character and effects of the bac-
terra found in milk, says: "It is not
only true that tubercIe bacilli, typhoid
bacilh and other pathogenic bacteris
are frequently found in milk, but equal
ly true that no milk one hour old is ever
found free from bacteria of some sort or
another, and consequently never fit for
food by infants or invalids. I might
with perfect propriety go further and
say that no milk, unless it had been
sterilized, is fit for drinking purposes.
BY sterilizing / do not mean boiling, as
that renders milk unfit for food, espe-
cially in the case Of infants. -
The temperature to which it is neces-
sary to raise milk in order to sterilize &c
may be judged by the following table,
which shows the thermal death point Of
some of the most common bacteria.
