Ammonia Test of p4r,. cre.n.

Paris green dissolves freely and
wholly in ammonia, becoming beau
tiful blue liquid; while majority of
the substances formerly used in adul-
terating Paris green are insoluble
This, therefore, is very ready means
of recognizing most of the crude forms
of adulteration. If upon treatment
with ammonia any Of the material fails
to dissolve, the same is adulterated.
This test, however, is not conclusive,
since white arsenic and a number Of
other substances used in adulterating
Paris green. especially in these later
years, are soluble in ammonia and
would escape detection if this method
alone were depended on. Ammonia
then affords valid grounds for reject
ing sample If any portion of it is
insoluble; but other means must be
used to be sure of its purity, even if
apparently pure by this test.

be thoroughly boiled before they are
again used for milk. Milk is often
taken to the factory in cans covered
with a green coating inside of the neck
and along the seams; such cans are
alive with destructive organisms; and
to have them in such condition shows
objectionable neglect. Milk put into
such receptacle for single moment;
besides, its mixing at the factory with
other milk is sure to infect the whole
lot, often resulting in much inconven-
fence and pecuniary loss Where the
cans are taken home empty it is adj
visable to wash them at the factory,
where steam can be used in steriliz-
Ing them. 1t should not be necessary
for the creamery management to en-
ploy an extra man to do this work; a
wash box and steam jet can be pro-
vided, and the farmer be permitted to
wash his own cans. When this is
done the cans should be closely COW
cred with canvas to keep out the
dirt while returning from the factory,

The New York correspondent of
the philadelphia Ledger writes:
"Twenty five years ago there were
1880 deaths from small pox in this
city. In 1881 there were 45l deaths
and in 1894 there were no deaths
from the disease. This year there
