Poisonous Bacteria in Milk.

All the dangerous bacteria in milk,
aside from those producing specific
diseases, belong to group having one
characteristic in common - they all
peptonize the casein; that is, they
first precipitate it, and then, by further
action, cause it to become soluble,
with the formation of a somewhat
milky fluid. In few cases the casein
is peptonized without precipitation.
This group of bacteria is responsible
for the formation of poisons in milk, as
well as the summer complaints of chill
bred, and there is no doubt that to this
class is due the increase in the death
rate of children, which is always no.
tice1 in cities during summer. Not all
of these bacteria are harmful in the
sense that they produced specific dis
ease themselves, such as typhoid fever
or other intestinal disease, but they act
by breaking up the complex protein
compounds which are found in milk
and forming from them new set of
bodies, some of which, as in the case
of tyrotoxicon, are violent poisons.
Others may only produce an irritation
of the stomach and intestines, thus
producing more or less violent diar-
rhoea, and in some cases the action on
the intestines is so violent that the bac-
terra are classed among the pathoge-
mic or disease producing varieties.
The specific poisons which are thus
produced in milk are classed together
under the head of ptomaines, and from
their complex composition and the diff
fculty with which they are obtained
they are very hard to identify. But
enough is known to make sure of the
fact that to their presence in milk is
due most of the increased summer
death rate among children. The orr.
gin of such dangerous varieties of bac-
terra can always be traced to two
sources; either they come from the ex-
crement of cattle or from watering
places which have been allowed to dry
up during summer drouths and become
transformed into mass of fermenting
and putrefying material. In their eff
forts to escape from the heat and flies,
the COWS will wade into sloughs and
thus become coated with the germ-con-
tanning slime, which is usually trans
ferred from the udders of the ami
mails to the milk pail, where they find
the best possible conditions for their
growth.-F. G.. Short, in Country Cen
tleman.

The Lessons ON Milking Trials.

Mr.. Primrose Mcconnell in his in
teresting report Of the milking trials at
the London Dairy Show of last Octo-
Der, which appears in the current num-
Der of The Journal of the British Dairy
Farmers Association, includes several
statistical statements of Importance to
dairy farmers. Averaging the milk
ing performances of the competing
animals of the different breeds, he
brings out very clearly the superiority
of the shorthorn or the crossbred of
the short horn type. These classes
have not only given splendid yields as
regards quantity, but the quality has
also been of a creditable character. A
close examination of the individual
yields may reveal lessons of more than
passing interest to owners of this type
of COW.
The enormously heavy yields pro-
duced by some of the animals and the
exceeding richness of the milk of 9TH
ers seem to us to suggest that the far
mer possesses power in developing or
controlling the inherent propensities of
COWS which is but little appreciated, or
at all events that is not turned to ade-
quate account. 1t is obvious that the
short horn by the systematic process of
selection could be made to equal even
the Channel island varieties as butter
producers, or they might be cultivated
if so desired, to excel the Holstein
breed as heavy mixers. We do moi
think that the development of one
quality at the expense of the others
as must be the case if extremes are to
be attained-would be wise proceed
ing for the average farmer, but it is
only too apparent that the vast major
ity of farmers do not pay the strict at
tention to the selection and direction
of their cows that consideration fol-
their own interests ought to induce
them to do. Without converting The
valued cosmopolitan breed into one
purpose class, such as the Jersey o
the Ayrshire is, much might be done
to enhance the value of the ordinar,
specimen as an all around dairy COW.
