TEACHERS, SIDE OF 1T.
Cause of the Complaints About
the jackson school

Mrs. Deacon, the principal. and Mrs
Mary G. Clinch, one of the teachers OF
jackson school, are not disturbed over
the complaints made to the school
board Wednesday night. Speaking
about the matter yesterday Mrs
Deacon said: Because some children
are not advanced as fast as other chill
dren in other schools they naturally
blame the teachers for incompetency
when it is the fault of the children
themselves. As for the course of in
struction, we teach what the school
board demands US to teach, and no
more. For my part / think it would
be better for the children to be taught
the common branches entirely, as the
greater number of the pupils leave the
school to earn their living as cash
girls and errand boys
Mrs. Clinch said: If / am deaf / do
not know it, or was l ever made aware
before of any defect in my hearing.

children in understanding what they

peat their words two or three times

A BLOW AT WOMAN SUFFRAGE

One of the most interesting feat
ures of Tuesdays election, which has
been lost sight of generally in the ex-
citement attending the outcome, was
the practical experiment in Massa-
chuSettS with the referendum. There
has been little coterie of active ad-
vocates Of woman suffrage in that
state for some years. Founding their
belief on abstract theories, and dis
regarding the practical relation of
the right of suffrage to the functions
Of men and women in society and in
the state, they have urged early and
late the granting of the ballot to
women. The legislature, finally per-
suaded or wearied by their importun-
ity, agreed ito refer the question to
the people. If they decided that they
wanted woman suffrage, then the
next legislature would proceed to
carry their will into effect. 1t
was provided that all voters should
express their opinion, for or against
granting to women the privilege of
the ballot, and the women themselves
were allowed to register their
views. The election thus fur
nished information on three
important questions: First, do
women want to vots2 Second. do

an Alleged Mexican outrage.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 7-Senor Ro-
nero, the Mexican minister here, for
mally denies the accuracy of pub
lished report coming from Texas to
the effect that John H. Manley, en-
gineer of the Mexican International
railway, and other Americans were ar
rested by the Mexican authorities and
taken to Monterey in 1889 and after
wards compelled to work in certain al
legged coal mines ten miles distant
from that city. The minister had the
matter carefully investigated by the
Mexican government and declares that
there is not a shadow of foundation
for the story. To support his state
ments the minister has been furnished
with affidavits from the officers of the
railway company, United States con-
sular officers, police officials and other
persons denying that there had been
any such arrests Or that there are any
such coal mines.

MILK.
Some Valuable Hints From the Re-
port of the State Dairy and Food
Comm issiOn.

Some Valuable Hints From the Re-
port of the State Dairy and Food
Commission.
The fifth annual report of the Minnesota
dairy and food commissioner, Hon. Berndt
Anderson, says of milk:
THE dairy and food department comes
more directly in contact, in the prosecution
of its work. with this one article of food
ana diet, than with any other with which
it is called upon to deal. 1t is a commodity
that enters into every household the rich
and the poor are alike consumers, and 1t
therefore becomes doubly important that it
should receive our untiring watchfulness
to prevent adulteratiOn in any particular.
1t is the food entirely depended upon by
large portion oft the infants of the coun-
try, and their health and growth largely
depend upon pure and healthful article
free from all impurities 1t is luxury en-
joyed by old and young alike, and es-
pecially sought after during the warm
months. A cool glass of milk on hot day
In its natural freshness and purity is a
nectar hit for the gods. The laws of Min
nesota regulating the sale Of milk are very
good as far as they go, but do not extend
far enough. They were enacted more with
view of establishing standard of rich
ness, below which milk could not be sold,
than for any other purpose, thereby pre-
venting the placing upon the market
by unprincipled vendors skinned milk or
watered milk. Now that this has been ac-
complished, l would recommend that the
laws of the state be so amended that all
milk sold upon our markets should be pas
teurized in order to destroy any bacteria
or disease germs that might be contained
therein. Milk is probably more susceptible
of contamination than any other article of
food we use, and too much care cannot be
taken with reference to it's environments.
"Cleanliness in the handling of milk is of
the utmost Importance, and has much to

do with its keeping qualities. Before begin
ming to milk the udder should be thorough
ly brushed (washing is still better) so that
all dirt and particles may be thoroughly
removed. The hands should be kept dry
during the process. never dipping them in
the milk and wetting the teats, as the drip
pings fall back into the milk, contaminat-
ing 1t. AS soon as the pail is full 1t should
be removed, strained and cooled as quickly
as possible, never allowing it to set In the
barn a moment longer than necessary, as 1t
will absorb the odors surrounding 1T IN an
incOnceivable short space of time, and that
odor will follow it into the butter or what
ever it may be converted into and no
known process will exterminate it. Clean
illness in and about the barns and stables
is Of the utmost Importance, as the health
of the cows are dependent upon it, and
good, wholesome, healthy milk can be OBJ
tanned only from healthy cows. Feeding is
another important essential in the produc-
ton of good dairy products. Brewers malt.
vinegar waste or any fermented food
should under conditions be given the
COW, as 1t creates fever In the animal, ana
the milk is readily affected thereby.
1T is to be regretted that the nations of
the world that make any pretense at dairy
ing do not pattern more closely after the
thorough system employed in Denmark and
Sweden The COW is treated dear
friend, her every want and whim supplied.
The barns are models of cleanliness that
present te attractions of home. Danish
and Swedish girls neatly and prettlly
dressed do the milking. This fact alone as
sures kind treatment, rather than the use of
heavy boot or the vigorous application of
a milking stool at the hands of heartless
wretch, demanding obedience from slow
moving cow.
1.-The laws in those countries are rigidly
enforced and are very eXacting. The milk
is not only inspected with reference to it's
richness, but also it's sanitary condition as
well. The result of this system, maintained
through long series of years, has placed
the dairy products of our Danish and SWed-
ish friends far beyond the reach of competl-
ton of any other nation on earth. There is
no valid reason why the United States, and
more especially Minnesota, with all her rich
natural advantages of pure air, water, grass
and indomitable pluck and courage of its
farmers and dairymen, together with the
improved applicances at mana, snoulu not IN
augurate system of dairying and, strictly
adhering to it, compel the pretty dairy

done in the open air is necessary. for this
purpose nothing is better than a good hot
bed, and it's construction is so simple and
the expense so light that every garden
should have one. hot bed proper not only
protects the plants from the cold, but sup
plies bottom heat. By this term the gar
dener means that the soil is constantly
kept several degrees warmer than the air
above. that being the condition so far as
heat is concerned which is most favorable
for rapid and vigorous growth. 1t is evil
dent that to produce this we must in some
way apply our heat below the surface, and
it is usually done by making a compact pile
of some fermenting material and covering
1t with the earth in which the plants are
to grow.
The best heating material that is easily
available is fresh horse manure, containing
liberal quantity of bedding of straw or
leaves. Such manure, If thrown into loose
pile, will heat violently and unevenly and
will soon become cold. What is wanted in
the hot bed is a steady and moderate but
lasting heat. To secure this, the manure
should be forked over, and if dry, watered
and allowed to stand a few days and then
be forked over again, piled and allowed to
heat second time, when, after a few
days more, it will be ready for USE The
object of this repeated forking over and
piling is to get the whole mass into uni
form degree of fermentation.
Gardeners commonly use sash made es-
pecially for hot beds and glazed with small
lights cut from odds and ends and so fur
nished at very low rates. Such sash can
usually be procured in any of our large
order. For garden use, however. we much

THE LUNENBURG MURDER.

We have read very carefully the report
of the committee of citizens of Nuremberg
and the proceedings OF meeting Of citi-
Zens of that county, held subsequent to the
report. and have come to the conclusion
that one thing at least is made clear, and
that is that the new trial Of the women
charged with the crime, ought to take place
in some other county than Lunenburg.
That conclusion is clinched by the adop-
ton, at the meeting, of suggestion to the
people of the county to boycott the Rich.
mond Times, a journal that, so it appears
to US, has been honestly striving to get at
the truth of the matter. That is all ugly
slip of the good people Of Lunenburg, il
they are correctly represented by the meet
ing, and is something we are sure they
would not do in their cooler moments.
