DEsICCATED MILK
FOR WESTERN FARMERS.

This new product, desiccated milk.
which is being investigated by Profess
sor LaddN and Professor Holley, indi-
Gates the possibility Of new industry
Tor western milk producers and one
that should prove as profitable as has
the condensed milk industry in, the
eastern states. The existing forms of
liquid condensed milks have never
proven satisfactory to the public, ow-
ing to their peculiar flavor, liability of
spelling with the consequent danger
Of ptomaine poisoning, and the impos-
sibility of keeping wholesome for any
length of time after the opening Of
the can.
After several years of investigation
q process has been worked out, of dry
ing pure milk without the addition of
any foreign ingredients to dry, flaky
powder. This result, as obtained by
the Just-Hatmaker process. is accom-
plished without the use of the compli.
Gated machinery necessary to the man.
ufacture of ordinary condensed milk
and the method being simple and eff
cient is particularly adopted to cream
cries. affording a profitable means of
working up of the skim milk and dis
posing of it to the bakeries hotels and
confectionery manufacturers of our
large cities.
This desiccated milk, in the form of
powder HAY be easily shipped any
where and used as substitute for
fresh milk. into which it is converted
by the. simple addition of water. Sew
eral samples. have been procured d.
rect from the two factories in this
country, located at Adams and Mexico,
New York and careful study under
the direction of rofessor Ladd, as re-
CARDS food value and sanitary proper
ties. has been in progress for some
time. The results Of the investigation
while not wholly completed, show that
the product is practically sterile, free
from the unpleasant taste associated
with condensed milk, when dissolved
in water does not form clots or Jumps,
the cream rising upon it the same as
on the original milk and serves as a
very excellent substitute for fresh
milk in tea, coffee and other beverages.
Possessing only about two per cent
moisture the milk powder will appar-
emily keep indefinitely after the can
has been opened, which is very dis
tinct advantage to the consumer.

passenger elevator, sufficed to make
commercial buildings exceed three
stories in height, but it is held that
the modern skyscraper could not be
used to house it's thousands devoted
TO the intensities of commercial af-
fairs within its score or more stories
had it not been for the facilities of
communication afforded by the tele-
phone service, because there is not
sumcient room In such buildings for
elevators adequate to transport the
number of messengers which would
otherwise be necessary for communi-
eaton between these offices and their
clients.
The condition of messengers in

scraper presents hypothetical aspect
akin to that Of the substitution of oars
men for the propulsion of a steam
ship, in which they would far exceed
the capacity of the vessel, as it would
require 100000 men, working in eight
hour relays. to produce the 10000
horsepower used on the large Allan
tic liners. 1t has been found in the
course Of studies by municipal en-
gineers upon the sidewalk capacity Of
cities that the facility of communica-
ton afforded by the telephone has
diminished the relative number of
persons walking in the business dis
tricts of cities during office hours.
The work of these specialists has been
directed to providing means for abat-
ing the congestion at the beginning
and end of working hours, and cleo
tricity is applied again to methods of
rapid transit at these localities by in
PRODUCING as many points of departure
as possible within these congested dis
tricts.
For long distance travel the tele-
phone is a substitute which has added
to productiveness in the measure to
which the time that would otherwise
be occupied in travelling may be de-
voted to profitable employment. OF

WHENCE THESE RICHES.
Great Part That Electricity Plays in
National Prosperity.

National Prosperity.
tFrom the Electrical Review.l
When people buy business is good,
end people are now buying and bust
ness is good throughout this country
and Europe. There is no tulip craze
of chasing after localities, but pur-
chases are made to an extent which
taxes the productive resources of man
ufacturing establishments, whose out
put is generally sold far in advance.
1t is evident that the balance of the
increment of the productive capacity
of humanity is increasing, and this
augmentation of the average poten-
TALLY of the individual is the only
measure of this enlarged difference
between production and consumption
which constitutes the increase of pros
perity. 1t must not be overlooked
that material possession have not been
destroyed in these territories by wars
OF extensive fires. Both of these an
nihilations of value have been fore
runners of financial crisises; other
losses are mere transfers of property.
It does not answer the proposition
to attribute this fortunate commercial
condition to machinery, for there have
been no radical improvements in
methods of manufacture or Transport
tation of freights by land or sea dur
ing the last twenty-five years sutfi-
Gent to introduce materially different
economic conditions.
The term labor saving machinery"
ifs largely misnomer, for while the
reduction of hours of labor in the
face of the increased numbers of
workers among growing populations
las been comprised by the combined
application of improved machinery
and modern methods OF organization,
yet the function of machinery mas
served to increase production and to
facilitate distribution to an extent
which quickens the luxuries of one
generation into the necessities of the
next.
II there is now an increased sur
plus without any recent evidence of
corresponding addition to the rate OF
individual production, or any diminu-
ton OF consumption of living ex-
penses, then 1t is among the wastes
OF recent years that search must be
made for the cause of this increment.
The first analysis reveals the sOlu-
ton, and that is in the service Of cleo
tricity applied to mankind, which has
cut down wastes which were hither-
to unavoidable.

TO JUDGE A HORSE.
Some Rules to Govern tho One Who

Some Rules to Govern tho One Who
Is to Purchase.
Never have q horse brought out, or
up, or down, to you, but go to his stall
and Investigate for yourself certain
details which, once you know them,
require no special acumen to decide
upon, or to be aware of, says the Out
Ing magazine. For instance, is there
grain in the manger, and the hour of
feeding some time past? He may be
bad feeder. nervous, delicate-well to
call the veterinarians attention to
this point. Is the straw under his
fore feet unusually trampled or brok-
en-? May be one of these irritable,
nervous "weavers" (horses which con-
stantly sway from side to side,) who
are generally also bad feeders and
poor property. Are the stall posts or
sides. battered or kicked? He may be
kicker (by day or night, spelling his
own rest and that Of other herses.)
Does he tear or eat his blankets? Is
he tied in any special way or simply
and as other horses are? Is he gentle
to approach and handle-no nipping,
kicking or pulling back on the halter?
Does he stand square on both fore
feet, Sor rest one or both alternately?
Does he back quietly from the stall,
picking up each hind leg without sud
den spasmodic jerking. And when he
turns in the gangway does he do SO
smoothly, or does he finch Tin 'front.'
as If the boards we're not even, or his
feet hurt him more or less? Are his
eyes staring and expressionless, his
ears always forward indications Of
defective vision.
Once out Of the. stall. notice that he
submits quietly to being wiped over
and betrays no resentment, while har-
Messing, at accepting the bit, bride,
crupper, ETC., etc, and decorously per-
hitting all necessary alterations and
attentions. Accept no departure from
absolute docility of department; for
be sure that II the animal betrays
either excitability, nervousness, or vice
in the dealers hand, he will be far
worse with you, for you know you
don't know. and he will know you
don't know-and those combinations
spell out. And when put to the vehicle
to which he is to be driven. noticing
each stage Of the process, view him
always with the icily critical eye Of
the individual who does not (yet) own
him. .s5
