Railway. 1t was written by Russian Official Of
high rank who has been practically concerned in
the prosecution of that gigantic engineering enter

abiding influence upon the commerce of the world
NJ Mikhaoff describes the course of the railway
and presents interesting statistics regarding the
progress made in it's construction. He gives an
exhaustive account of the nature of the resources
of the different regions of Siberia and shows how
the facility of transporting the products of human
labor from the centre of Asia to the great markets
with economy and speed will result in the crea-
ton of a new industrial continent, teemng with a
busy and enterprising population NJ. Mikhailof
gives for believing that the Siberian Rail

The gradual education of the public in hygiene
has produced a demand for pure milk. among other
things the part of thousands of Newly Yorkers
who few years ago had not learned discrm-
mate any further than between milk and
sour. skinned and unskimmed. Nowadays people
demand to what percentage of fat their milk
carries and how many bacteria to the cubic inch
chemical analysis would reveal in it. This has
caused a revolution in dairy methods. and one of
the model dairies of this country is situated
Briarcliff Farms. Westminster County Visitors to
this establishment have every opportunity afforded
them 20 make personal inspection of the methods
employed. and physicians especially invited 10
for themselves what basis the farms are
managed. For the benefit of those who desire pure
milk. but cannot spare time to inspect the farms
neatly printed and illustrated descriptive pamphlet
has been issued, called "A Day With the Cows on
Briarclin Farms which says among other things
Every cow and calf the farms that is six
months old undergoes rigid tuberculin test twice
year, and the milk of each individual COW must
come up To the standard required by the manage

The precautions observed during the milking are
sterilized white duck suits for the mixers careful
washing of hands after each separate milking;
milking through sieve into the pail and straining
the milk when 1t is poured from the milk pail into

brought to the dairy it is put into large sterized
tank, whence it is forced By compressed air
through sterilized pipes to the second floor. where
it is cooled and bottled. Within five minutes after
reaching the dairy of milk has been put into
sterilized bottles. The milk is regularly analyzed
and the bacteria present are frequently below a

those who knew and admired him long ago gave
up being surprised at his financial condition,
