Does SterilIzatlon Affect the Disestibu-
ity OF MIX

Since bacteriologists have taught us
to look upon untreated cows milk
as fruitful source of infection, es-
pecially dangerous to infants, it has
become the universal practice among
physicians to insist upon its being ex-
posed to the prolonged influence OF
heat e., sterilized. The tco exclu-
sive use of milk thus prepared has
been condemned by some authorities,
SO that the question may still be re-
garded as open to discussion, says
british exchange. To determine the
relative digestibility of fresh and ster-
ilized milk, JENNA ia clinica medica
1taliana) has undertaken a series of
laboratory experiments, which show
that under the influence of pepsin and
hydrochloric acid fresh milk is more
readily digested than sterilized milk,
while the reverse takes place when
the two fluids are subjected to the
action of pancreatin. When acted
upon by artificial gastric juice, ster-
1Iized milk produces a greater guam
tity of peptones during the first four
hours than fresh milk, but after that
period the latter proves to be the more
easily digestible. Practically the same
results were obtained on using lab
ferment, pepsin, and hydrochloric acid.
The action of 1abferment and pancrea-
attn was more pronounced in the case
of sterilized milk
In second series of researches the
author set himself the task of deter
mining the relative digestibility' OF
sterilized milk, and of milk diluted
with a 10 per cent solution of sugar
OF milk. In every instance the advan-
tage was on the side of the diluted
milk. The conclusions drawn by the
author from these data are: 1. Milk
submitted to the sterilizing action CT
heat shows no impairment of digesti-
bility, which is superior to that of
raw milk. 2. Milk that has been
sterilized and diluted with a solution
of sugar of milk is more easily digest
ed than pure sterilized milk.

Black Spanish.

The Black Spanish is one of the old
est varieties of domestic poultry. Their
name has been identified with the in
dustry for hundreds of years, and
their practical worth on the farm has
long been of much value. Their
naughty bearing, large red comb and
wattles, and the white face and lobes
peculiar to the breed, contrasting with
their glossy black plumage, render
them most striking fowls. White
faced Black Spanish have long been
favorably known for their exceptional
ly fine laying qualities. The oldest of
the nonsitting varieties, they still
maintain an unsurpassed record. The
pullets are early layers, averaging $50
to $50 eggs per year. the hens begin
ming somewhat later after molting,
but compensating for any loss of guam
tity by the increased size of the egg,
while hens and pullets alike are we'll
above the average for winter laying.
Their eggs are large and white and of
good flavor. Their white face is dis
tinguiShing feature, and should be
long, smooth, free from wrinkles, ris-
ing well over the eyes in an arched
form, extending toward the back of the
head and to the base of the beak, COW
ering the cheeks and joining the wat
ties and ear lobes, the greater the
depth of surface tie better, and should
be pure white ia color. The color OF
plumage throughout is rich, glossy
black, and any gray in plumage is con-
sidered serious de1ect. Shanks and
toes are blue, or dark leaden blue.
Comb is single and bright red in col
or; wattles, bright red, except the in
side of the upper part, which is white;
earlobes. pure white. No standard
weight is given for Black Spanish:
they average in size that of the Leg
horn and ..ndaluSian.

Clean milking Important

One of the things worth doing
we'll" is milking the cows Why a
cow ought to be MIXED clean eyery
time is too Old a story and has too
many arguments to back it up to
make a lecture necessary every
time it is mentioned. But its i'm
portance cannot be brought out too
frequently, says Jersey Bulletin 1t
looks like a little thing to some men
to slight a cow because she is
'tegious" mixer; and it may be more
convenient to leave a quart of strip
pings in the udder than to put up with
the side-stepping and tail-swinging
agitation of a nervous critter"; but
the owner of a good COW might bet
ter have hand" who will steal from
him than one who doesn't milk the
cows Clean He not only loses much
of the richest milk-that is perhaps
the least of the objections to such
neglect-but the practice of leaving
milk in the udder has a detericrating
influence on the capacity of the cow
The longer it goes on, the less milk
she gives And the small yield soon
becomes chronic.

to arouse our appreciation OF what om-

cited, and our alteration is intensified,
but after all we find ourselves at the
foot of a mountain we cannot climb,
lowering over a depth we cannot ia

first going down on our knees and then
like falling fiat upon our faces as we
exclaim: 10, these are parts of his
