Cows are uncleanly animals, as ev-
erybody knows. But the farmers who
would keep clean cows find 1t difficult
to keep clean attendants. Instead of
trying to remove the dust and dirt
from the cows before milking, in order
that there may be as little dirt as pos
sib!e in the milk, the untidy attend
ants turn directly from cleaning horses
or from other dirty work and go 10
milking They do it in dirty clothes,
with dirty hands, caring nothing how
much dust and dirt comes from them
selves and from the cows into the milk
pals. IT is important that attendants
should be cleanly, having clean hands
and clean finger nails. But every farm
er knows that it is difficult to find help
ers who will ever think of cleaning
their finger nails. They will scarcely
do that before going to church, much
less when going to do their milking.
One of the chief forms of bacterial
contamination of milk comes from this
carelessness. The udders should be
cleaned always before milking begins.
The fact is overlooked that after milk
ing the teats are moist and germs plant
themselves there, some of them even
working their way into the teat cavity.
Unless the teats are cleansed before
the next milking these germs are first
drawn into the milk pail There they
begin their work of contamination
even while the milking is going on.
They develop rapidly.
Likewise, when utensils are washed,
unless great care is taken, the milk
will not be completely removed from
them, and the Tactic bacteria gather
and germinate there, so that legions
of the bacteria are in the utensils
when the next milking begins, just as
they are in or upon the udder or
teats. Cleaning utensils upon the
farms requires constant and careful
supervision, because employees are
everywhere careless. They use pro-
miscuous rags and wiping cloths,
neglect the strainers, neglect the
pals, do their washing hastily, and
usually with cold or luke-warm wa
ter. Very often the milk pals are al
lowed to become coated with greasy
layers which are hotbeds for the de-
velopment of bacteria. Moreover, wa
ter which is impure is frequently
used, water from cisterns and shallow
wells, and sometimes dishwater
which has been used for plates and
other table utensils.
AS stated above, the department of
agriculture believes that there are
very few dishonest dairymen. The
dairy division says also that many
customers are unreasonable in their
demands, and that they do not take
proper care of good milk after it is
delivered to them. Milk can as easily be
contaminated by bad handling after it
has been delivered as before it leaves
the farm. If pure milk is left in a
kitchen or ill-ventilated cellar, where
dust can settle upon it or where flies
may gather upon it. no blame can at
tach to the milkman or the dairyman,
That is the fault of the housekecper.
Milk is often left in glass bottles
in the sun. Or it is placed in a small
tin pail which has not been properly
washed. 1t is placed in a refrigera'

STORAGE OF APPLES.
Pit or Cave, If Carefully Constructed,
Is Far Better Than the Old
Fashioned Cellar.

The question of the best manner of
the storage of the apple crop will soon
be up for consideration. The de-
partment of agriculture has been col
lecting some information upon this
subject and concludes that vast
quantity of apples spoil every year
simply through careless or improper
storage, says Gus E. Mitchell, in the
Wisconsin Agriculturist.
The storing of fruit under dwell
ing houses is not recommended. A
certain amount of decay is inevitable
and the rotting fruit becomes prop
agating place for disease germs which
permeate the rooms above.
A pit or cave, if carefully con-
structed, will keep apples very salts
factorily and has the advantage of be-
ing the least costly of any possible
storage construction. Such a cave, as
described by the department, is usu-
ally built into a hillside sloping to-
ward the north, so that the entrance
is protected from the southwest winds
that prevail during summer and au-
tumn. In moist soils the cave must
be walled, in dry soils no walls are
required. Upright posts along the
sides support the top, which is made
of poles; over the poles is layer of
coarse hay, and over the hay, soil to
the depth of two feet. Several fiues
are made for ventilation. Such a cave
may be built any desired dimensions;
some are being planned with doors
in each end and large enough for n
passage way for wagon through
them. The best system of ventila-
ton and the most even and desirable
temperature can be maintained by
use of an underground ventilation
pipe leading from an opening in the
floor of the cave to a similar opening
on the surface of the ground several
rods away. The pipe should be large
enough to provide sufficient air for
the cave, and should have valves at
each opening to regulate the sup
ply. The air in passing through the
pipe is cooled in summer and warmed
in winter, and thus brought to near
the proper temperature for good re-
suits in keeping fruit, To complete
| the system several fiuas should lead
! through the top of the cave to the
| open air above. The sum of the ca
pacities of these fues should at least
be equal TO the capacity of the ven
tilator leading into the cave.

NOTES FROM THE PARIS EX-
POSITION.

"The Singer Manufacturing Com
pany, of 149 Broadway, New York,
show their usual American enterprise
by having very creditable exhibit, To-
Gated in Group XIII, Class 10, at the
Paris international Exposition, where
they show to great advantage the cele-
brated Singer Sewing-Machine which
is used in every country on the globe,
both for family use and for manufac-
turing purposes. The writer was high
ly pleased with this display and OBJ
served with much satisfaction that it
was favorably commented upon by vis-
itors generally.
The Grand Prize was awarded by the
International Jury to Singer Sewing
Machines for superior excellence in de-
sign, construction, efficiency and for
remarkable development and adoption
to every stitching process used in
either the family or the factory.
Only One Grand Prize for sewing ma
chimes was awarded at Paris, and this
distinction of absolutely superior merit
confirms The previous action of the In
ternational Jury at the Worlds Co.
lumbian Exposition, in Chicago, where
Singer machines received 81 distinct
awards, being more than were re-
ceived by all other kinds of sewing ma
chimes combined.
Should it be possible that any of our
readers are unfamiliar with the cele-
brated Singer Machine, we would re-
spectfully advise that they call at any
of the Singer salesrooms which can be
found in all cities and most towns in
the United States"
