Care of Milk Vessels.

At a recent dairy convention in Australia
the Judge, in criticising certain lot of
butter, wrote on the scorecard: ''1'asteS of
soap Inquiry of the exhibitor later
brought out that in her anxiety to have
everything right she had given the vessel
thorough washing with soapsuds. She
declared she had carefully rinsed it after
ward, yet there was sufficient soap adher-
ing to the vessel in which the milk had
been handled so that the judge could de-
tect it in the butter.
The following very desirable method of
washing dairy utensils in the absence of
steam, or where steam is available, is rec
commended : AS soon as the vessels are
emptied rinse them out with lukewarm
water, if available; if not, cold water.
Wash thoroughly in water as warm as can
be comfortably worked in, using some good
soap to cut the grease. Then rinse in boil
ing water or as near boiling as possible.
Then use two waters, one to rinse the soap
off, taking care that every part of the ves-
sci is thoroughly rinsed, and the other
to simply scald it. The vessel should then
be turned up to drain and dry. If left
hot, it should dry without rusting.
While in dairy practice it is recommend
ed that brush be used while washing and
then not wiping the tinware with towel,
experiments performed at the Australian
station with tinware steamed and wiped
with new towel that had never been used,
wiped with so-called clean, used towel
and with soiled towel, showed that after
wiping with a new cloth towel there were
three and one-half times as many bacteria
left on the surface as in the case where it
was steamed only. After wiping with a
used towel-one which any housewife
would call "clean towel" there were
300 times as many as when steamed only;
and after using soiled towel-one which
was not worse than is commonly used in the
kitchen for our dinner plates--is showed
1000 times as many as when steamed
only

The poker scandal in the fashionable
Americas club of Pittsburg took new
turn when it was learned that d. Joseph
johnson, who was caught with ''mirror
ring dealing cards, had won an east end
heiress, who had broken her engagement
when the exposure came.
Upon learning of his cheating at cards
this.young woman sent for johnson, broke
the engagement and warned him if he ever
mentioned her name she would have him
arrested.
johnson (the name is believed to be
assumed) came to Pittsburg less than
year ago and was supposed to be broker
He dressed fashily and obtained an en-
trance into several leading clubs and society.
The exposure as cheat at cards was the
climax of suspicious held against him for
some time
During the game of stud poker which
ended in johnson S exposure he had cleaned
up most of the money on the table and
diamond ring and shirt stud belonging
to Frank Sauer. The latter grabbed his
hand and revealed ring containing mir
ror about the size of dime, by means of
which johnson could see the face of every
card he dealt

the clubmeu to looking up the record of
the new member. One evening at a
theater one of the clubmen greeted him,
"Good evening, Joe. -
"Why, Joe isn't your name," his fan
Gee was heard to say as the couple walked
away, and then the clubman began to won
der how many names "Joe johnson had.
He is said to be connected with one of

Keep the Dairy Clean.

DR.. Vaughn, of Michigan University,
states that of all the diseases of children
under years of age in the great cities,
one-half are preventable and are due to bad
milk. Milk is bad for infants when it
contains bacteria that are harmful to them.
Such bacteria get into the milk between
the moment of leaving the COW and its in
gestion by the infant
Strauss, of New York, has shown that
proper treatment of the milk by way of
pasteurization will lessen the death rate so
or even IS per cent.
It remains to be shown how much care
full handling Of the milk by the producer
will aid in this matter.
Let me make few suggestions to the
milkmen who are to sell milk for consump-
ton in the city during September and early
October.
Drain or fence every pond, creek or
river in the pasture field. 1t is practically
impossible to remove the fine mud from the
udder of the cow This mud carries most
harmful germs.
See to it that the water trough has no
mudhole adjacent.
See that the COW does not wallow in
dirty barnyard.
Let the cows out in pasture at night and
keep in darkened stable during the day,
thus preventing the continuous fighting of
flies, which cover the udder with fine dirt
almost impossible to remove.
Always milk in a stable.
Brush the udders carefully, also the
sides and fanks of the COW.
Slightly moisten the udder with clean
water before milking.
Milk rapidly and with dry hands, in
stable free from dust or bad odors, prevent
ing the odors by cleaning out the stable
after milking or sufficient time before, to
compel the escape of the odors by good
ventilation.
Milk in pals that have been thoroughly
washed by rinsing off adhering milk with
tepid water, then thoroughly scrubbing
with brush in very hot sal-soda water
and finally rinsing in boiling water, no yell
low scum on the seams nor rusty spots be-
tween.
Strain the milk through three thickness
es of cheesecloth in room outside of the
stable, where the air is in motion. Aerate
and COOL
Continue the cooling and keep the milk
below 500 until delivered to the con-
sumner.

THE FIRST CHRISTMAS.

Years ago on that first Christmas morn
A little babe in Bethlehem was born.
In a manger the Christ child lay,
With no pillow or bed save the hay,
Out on the hills the shepherds watched when,
Behold an angel saying Peace on earth good
will toward men.
And the wise men from afar,
We're guided to the manger by star
And there with the wise men kneelng round,
In a stable Christ our Lord was found
Thus unto us God His son did send
That we through Him our ways might mend.
Let US be thankful for that first Christmas
day,
And all the others that have passed away;
And that Christ on earth has lived and died
And through him peace with US might abide.

Beneficial Effects Of Yawnins.

Yawning is beneficial It serves the
purpose Of lung ventilation. The
lungs are. not filled or exhausted by

cesses Of the lungs after the ordinary
respiration This in time becomes vi.
tlated and affects the blood. and,
through H. the nervous centers. The
result is yawn. which is really
stretching of the respiratory chamber
10 its fullest capacity and the filing
Of It with freshly inspired air. which
drives the yitiated air out. Yawning
also opens, stretches and ventlates

that La Voisin was stretched on the

that the torture suited her well, as
she had always complained OF being
too short; 1t was here that the high
wayman Cartouche, the idol OF the
gay ladies OF Paris, was broken on
wheel, after having undergone the
boot to soften his heart. For several
centuries eXecutioners from all parts
of Europe came to the Conciergerie
to take lessons In their gentle art
