PROCESS
OF Purifying Milk
Explained
BY Mr.. II. B. Camp,
Pres. Pure Milk Co.
Stories Giving Wrong
Impression Corrected.
Milk Is Not Sterilized, but Pas
teurized and Clarified.

Although new enterprise. the bus
incss of the Akron Pure MIX Co. Is
growing steadily. as the quality Of the
milk has given satisfaction wherever
used. or course, some obstacles are
met In introducing the business, but
they are encountered.
One of the latest obstacles Is n
story, purporting TO have come from Il
Cleveland Health officer, to the effect
that sterillZcd milk Is not good for
babies. Although the Akron Purc
Milk Co. does not stcrilize its milk,
tho story seems to have been ci:cu-
lated here, apparently for the purpose
of giving a wrong impression of the
business of the local pure milk con
cerr
ON Thursday evening a reporter for
| the Democrat called ON Mr.. IL
T. Camp, president of the Akron Pure
| MIX Co., and asked him If there were
| any truth in the statement alleged
to have been made by n Cleveland
Health Officer.
In reply. he said: II don't know
whether sterlizing milk makes II
injurious 10 children, or not, but the
milk supplied by the Akron Pure
| Mllk Co, Is not sterlized. We steril
izc the cans and bottles, but clarity
and pisteuiiZc the milk. We do no

Off as quickly as possible. As II re-
Idea thnt pastcurizin~ cooks the mil
| Is necessarily erroneous, as pasteur-
| izing has no effect on the milk which
prevents cream from rising on it af-
| tcrward
THE purifying process simply takes
away the hair barn-yard manure,
and other filth found in nearly all
dairy milk, which cause 1t to ferment
quickly, to say nothing of worse re
suits, which often follow. We are

Formerly the soil was regarded as
mineral matter, simply decayed rock
mixed with dead organic matter, says
an exchange. Now we know that the
soil is Il living organism whose life
is as important as that of the animal
or the plant itself. If the soil be killed,
it is absolutely sterile. In other words,
if the life of organisms which make
soil fertile are destroyed the soil is
incapable of producing crop. Plants,
as a rule, eat only mineral food, such
as phosphoric acid, potash and nitric
acid, but animals usually eat only or
ganic foods, such as fats, sugars and
protein matter.

Did you ever know n hero real well :?

ly. Who? l am afraid you would hare
ly recognize his name, and besides it
would not be just right to give it here.
He is only an old bachelor who works
in shop. He has been at one bench
for something like-well from this you
may judge: When he began, he was
fresh from school. He lives in little
frame horse, with an absurd little
back yard hardly more than big enough

has been long time In the tiny
lawn is worn deep footpath The top
rail of the back fence is smoothly poI-
ished. His feet wore the path. His
hands polished the rail. And all these
years he has worked Mt the same
bench, doing the same work
Not that he lacks Intelligence or that
he never had an ambition. Intelligence
he most certainly has, no mean lore of
books and wide. generous grasp of
affairs and the drift of things. Ambi-
tion he had, too, but that was before
his feet had worn Il path across the
back yard. l am quite sure that he
once loved In fact l suspect that
know the one he loved, and that she
loved him. But he never married. She
did, though she has been widowed for
dozen years.
But why, you ask, with intelligence
and ambition, did he stick TO his
bench? In an upper room of his little
cottage is Il window blind which is
never opened. Behind that blind. peer
ing out through the shutters with un-
recognizing gaze, sits one who bears
the outward form of manhood, vet
lacks manhoods mental qualities. The
one behind the blind is his brother.

And so, though few know his name.

Mosc. end His Horns.

Did Moses have horns: Certainly
not, but if you have ever had the
pleasure of examining Il copy of Mi
chacI Angeles great picture of The
LawSiver' you have wondered why
the gHeat painter surmounted the pa
triarchal face, gray beard and becom-
ing priestly gown with Il pair of horns
much resembling those OF Il two-year-
old animal of the bovine tribe. The
reason is this: Jerome's Bible. the
Latin NulGate tells that when Moses
came down from the mountain top his
face was radiant" (raycd) with the
great light shining from his pure soul.
In the Greek Septuagint the transla-
ton said it was ''cornua,' meaning
radiant" Jerome used this later YER
sion in making his Latin Vulgate and
translated "cornua' as ''cornuta," the
last meaning horned. Angelo made
his picture accordingly.
