Drills for granite for best effect
should have their cutting edge at an
angle of 70 degrees, and if a single
blade, should have the point a little

What nearly resulted in a serious
accident happened to the regular
Neihart train Wednesday just as it
pulled into Belt, with about fifty
passengers who little knew the
thrilling incident of the impending
moment. The train was on time.
This was too much for the operator
who had II or Is different kinds of
fits and Mcpherson had to throw a
pail of water in his face in order to
revive him. Mail clerk Smith was
white around the gills and even the
historically brave and daring Robin
son nearly succumhed to the gener-
al establishment. Tommy Hodges
just had strength enough to look at
the face of his tin watch while hot
coffee from the open faucet of a cop
per tank deluged the quarter deck.

The theory that bovine tuberculosis
is communicable to human beings
through the consumption of dairy
products has been raped lately from
many quarters, says the New York
Post. Dr. Theobald Smith of Harvard
university, who has been making eX-
periments in this matter for several
years. declares that certain differences
exist between bovine and human tu-
bercle bacilli, and that thus far he has
not found the bacilli identical in any
instance. He was one Of the authOri-
ties consulted by the special investi-
eating committee Of the New York as
sembly on bovine tuberculosis, whose
report, it will be remembered, took the
back track in relation to the tuberculin
test by recommending that hereafter
the state only force the cOndemna
ton, quarantine and slaughter of such
animals as are found to be tuberculouS
by physical examination" leaving the
choice as to the use Of tuberculin with
the dairyman. Evidence taken by the
committee" to use further words of
Tie report, WOulu lAuIcdle tHdI very
rarely. if ever, does a person contract
tuberculosis from meat or milk Of ami
mails" and this led naturally to the
conclusion that the state can better
use it's funds along the lines of educa-
tional work, rather than following the
present policy of destroying all ami
mails showing a reaction under the tu
berculin test 1t was pointed out to
the committee by veterinary surgeon
that where cattle tuberculosis is plenti
full human tuberculosis is so rare as to
have no relation to it.

,@o@oAoAoMoAao Qo@o@oA

In bulletin on dairying in Califor.
MIA the agricultural department says
shat practically all the best creamery
butter sold on the Pacific coast is in
squares of about two pounds each
This method Of handling butter is ex-
cellent in some respects, but it is sub
lures: First, there is now no uniformi-
ty in the weights Of the squares. One
creamery sends cases of 60 ~ pound
squares, or 105 pounds, to Sacramento,
and to the same market another cream
cry sends cases holding 60 squares, ag-
gregating 101 pounds. This latter
creamery also sends to San Francisco
cases holding 60 squares Of 90 pounds.
It must be both confusing and annoy
ing to handle squares of such varying
weights, and no really good reason for
the practice was found. Doubtless
many people who purchase butter do
not notice the difference in weights,
but consider all squares alike, and the
seller who can shave off the most
without being suspected is the gamer.
Such competition is not only discredit-
able, but dishonest. The second criti-
cism of the method of marketing but
ter relates to the packages. Eastern
dealers have learned that it is more

Food Injurious to Butter.

In the spring and summer cows win
often wander into low fields and
swamps and eat weeds and wild plants
that affect the taste of the butter, says
e. p. Smith in The American Cultiva-
tor. There is sometimes a strong odor
to it and again decidedly bitter taste.
This is first noticeable in the milk and
cream, and the process of churning
does not eliminate the trouble. The
only sure way to prevent such odors
and disa agreeable taste in the butter in
summer is to root out all weeds and
noxious plants from the pasture. If
the latter is in a run down condition,
where weeds thrive and grass dies, it
will be pretty hard TO make the food of
thescows good enough to produce ex-
cellent milk and cream. 1t will pay
better in such cases to rent more and
better pasture fields and sow the old
one with new seed and fertilize it well.
Most tainted and bitter summer butter
comes from farms where the cows are
pastufed on wornout grassfelds.

A Bismarck Story.

In M. Georges MichePs life Of the
late M. Leon Say some of the econo-
mist's letters are reproduced, and
among them is one addressed to his
wife describing the reception by Bis
marck at Versailles Of the war fine Of
9S,0OOOOO that Paris had to pay. NJ.
Leon Say was one Of the commission
ers sent with the money in bank notes
to hand it over to German commission
ers in Bismarck's presence. The IS,
100000 was counted On a billiard ia
ble When this was done, a receipt
was shown to NJ. Say and then placed
in an envelope which was to be sealed.
The seal failing to bite into the wax,
Bismarck impatiently said to the Sec
rotary, "You do not know your bust
ness"
He snatched the seal from him, rub
bed it for a short time on the hair Of
his head and then said. 'Try now"
The result was a clear impression.
