ELLIS DAIRY FARM
sketch of An Important silk City
Industry.

sketch of An Important SILK City
industry.
The following is clipped from the Mich
iRan Farm and Live Stock Journal; u 9
article is taken from wrte-up sent 10
that Journal by N. A. Clapp, its travelling
correspondent who at present is stop
ping for rest and treatment at the Spin
ney Sanitarium in this city. Mr. Clapp's
home is in Worthwhile, Mich. He is good
writer and has been connected with the
Press for a number of years. Referring
to the farm he says:
Just outside the city on north side is
the excellent dairy farm owned by Mr.
G. w. Ellis of Philadelphia; it is managed
by his nephew, Ellis w. Ranney For
merly there we're two families of the
Ellises, each Of which had farms cn
which there was complete outfit OF
buildings, but the entire holdings have
been acquired by Mr.. Ellis. some four
hundred acres in all, and represents as
handsome surfaced farm as we have
seen. Its about rs feet above the river
and stretches across a plateau on to
slightly undulating ridges in the rear.
The farm buildings are arranged to
make them most convenient, are all well
painted and present from the front a
beautiful picture that is indicative OF
rural comfort and pleasure.
There are forty-five cows, Jerseys and
Jersey grades being kept, that furnish an
excellent quality of milk, which is bottled
and sold TO customers in the city. In the
dairy barn there are cement floors that
are cleaned with fastdious neatness, and
even at the close Of the milking hour there
were but few il any traces Of disagree
able odors. The COWS are given small
allowance Of grain although there is an
abundance of pasture at present, the
owner expressing the belief that the quail
ity of the milk is improved by it.
As soon as the milk is drawn it is
strained through the ordinary wire strain
er in the pail and then through four
thicknesses Of cloth. As soon as one or
two cans are filled they are wheeled to
the bottlng house, where the milk is run
over a series OF horizontal pipes through
which stream Of cold water is running
which eools the milk quickly The milk
is then emptied into small vat that is
run on wheels over numerous rows Of
bottles, and by working small lever the
milk is set running in stream into five
bottles at the same time. After a case
of bottles are filled they are placed in
the refrigerator and held until the time
comes to load in the wagons to deliver Ia
customers. 1t can be seen that the milk
is served to customers in perfect con-
dition. There are about 500 quarts de-
liyered in quart and pint bottles zach day.
After the bottles are empted they are
gathered. washed and sterilized by the
application Of steam, which destroys all
disease germs, and it is safe to say that
milk supplied from the Ellis farm is as
good as can be supplied"

WATER IS PURE
Sample From Test Well Analy-
Zed.
Prof. Kedzie. the Chemist, says Quail
ity Is Excellent.

The test well which was sunk a few
weeks ago in the park for the purpose OF
ascertaining the depth which it would be
necessary to 60 to get supply and also
as to the quality of the water has proved
a success both in volume OF water and
quality for drinking purposes.
A large flow was struck ata depth Of 49
feet and there is no doubt but an abund-
ant supply for all the needs of the city
can be obtained from the four wells which
will be put down.
A sample of the water was sent to the
chemical department of the Michigan Ag-
ricutural college for analysis and the fol-
lowing reply has been received:
Mr.. William E. Fisher, City Clerk

MAKING WEAPONS.
Two Were Taken From Prisoners In
 the County Jail Yesterday.

Two negroes in the county Jail were caught in the act of making weapons yes- terday out of small pieces of metal which they secured in some mysterious manner The first detection was made early in the morning, and the negro had almost completed a knife that looked something like dagger. Later In the afternoon Deputy G. J. Tomlin walked to the prison door and called to another deputy to let let him out. Be careful how you handle me-" he said jokingly, flor I have a weapon"
 When he reached the jailor's office he exhibited a long piece of lead which he had just taken from negro prisoner. The deputy said the negro was making the edges sharp by rubbing it against iron bars and bricks.
 There is no telling what a desperate negro might do with such an instrument" |" said the turnkey. We have to be on the lookout for such things all the time"
 Going to drawer in the office he ex- hibted no less than dozen pieces of iron and steel that had been detected in df- ferent cells within the last month.
