Keep The Dairy Clean.

DR.. Vaughn, of Michigan Univer-
sity, states that of all the diseases Of
children under 5 years Of age 10 the
great cities, one-half are preventable
and are due to bad milk. Milk is
bad for infants when il con tains bac-
terra that are harmful TO them.
Such bacteria get into the mix be-
tween the moment OF leaving the
COW and its ingestion by the infant.
Strauss. of New York. has shown
that proper treatment of the milk
by way of Pasteurization will lessen
the death rate 30 or even 75 per
cent. 1t remains to be shown how
much careful handling of the milk
by the producer will aid in this mat
ter.
Let me make few suggestions to
the milkmen who are to sell milk for
consumption in the city during Sep
tember and early October:
Drain or fence every pond. creek
or river in the pasture field. IL 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 -vallow
in dirty barnyard.
Let the COWS out at pasture at
night and keep in a darkened stable
during the day, thus preventing the
continuous fighting of flies, which
cover the udder with fine dirt al
most impossible TO remove.
Always milk in a stable.
Brush the udders carefully, also
the sides and fianks OF the COW.
Slightly moisten the udder with
clean water before milking.
Milk rapidly and with dry hands.
in a stable free from dust or bad
odors. preventing the odors by
cleaning out the stable after milking.
or sufficient time before, te 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 a
brush in very hot sal soda water,
and finally rinsing in boiling water
no yellow scum on the seams nor
rusty spots between. Strain the
milk through three thicknesses of
cheesecloth ia a room outside Of the
stable, where the air is in motion.
Aerate and cool.
Continue the cooling and keep the
milk below so degrees until deliver
ed to the consumer. r.-American Farm

United States Supreme Court Must
Decide Important Question When
1t Holds Session Next
October
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON. July 6.-When the
supreme court of the United States
meets next October it will be confronted
with the question of the liability of a
labor union to punishment under the
antitrust law, If question which has
been certified to that court by the cir
cult court of appeals for the second dis
trict Is pressed.
The question arises in connection with
the case of D. T. Lowe of Danbury,
Conn, VS.. Martin Lawlor and 200 other
members of the American Federation of
Labor Lowe is a hat manufacturer,
and it is charged that the federation
has sent out circulars to loves patrons
all over the country warning them that
If they do not desist purchasing his
hats they will be put on the unfair
list and will lose the patronage of
union labor men and their friends
everywhere.
Lowe brought suit in the circuit court
for the district of Connecticut asking
for 100000 damages under the anti
trust law, which provides that any vio-
lation of the law shall be punished by a
fine amounting to three times the
amount of the damage sustained.
The case is certified to the supreme
| court upon the one question as to
whether the plaintiff can maintain an
action under the antitrust law.

THOUSANDS OF OPERATORS
WANTED BY RAILROADS
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, July 6.-The Record-Her-
aid today says:
Several thousand young men who are
willing to prepare themselves can have
an opportunity during the next few
months of entering the railway service
in a branch that has produced the
greatest number of higher officials.
The railroads of the country are face
to face with the task of securing at
least 5000 telegrapher operators, and
possibly double that number, during
the next nine months. This great army
of new telegraphers is necessitated by
the new law which limits the hours of
labor in this branch of the railway
service.
There is not railway management
in the United States that knows where
or how they are going to get the large
additional force needed.
The fact is that they are not in the
country, and the problem is to create
a supply.

WILL SAVE MAN
FROM HIMSELF
Runs Away from Bank After It Is
Robbed and Allows Himself to
Be Considered as One
of the Thieves
BY Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 6.-dnspectors OF
the United States Guarantee company
are searching for II. J. Wilson to re-
deem him in spite Of himself, for Will
son ran away from his responsibilities
and let himself be classed as bank
robber, when in fact he was the one
robbed.
Wilson, described as plain, plodding
man of As years, was recently employed
by the First National bank of l Wall
street as q messenger. He disappeared
last Monday after making collections
aggregating a little more than $4,000.
On Tuesday the bank received bulky
envelope containing $34,71S in checks
and drafts. There was no accompany
ing explanation, but the bank soon as
certained that it was the bulk of Will
sons collections.
Then a friend received a pitiful let
ter from Wilson, in which he recited
that after making his collection and
while in a street car pickpockets had
relieved him of the banks checks and
money and that, mortified with shame
and possessed with the fear that the
bank officials would believe him thief.
he had determined to disappear until
he could make up his mind just what he
ought to do.
Investigation by the bank revealed
the probable truth of Wilson's story
and also developed the fact that the
pickpocket secured $1716 in cash. The
thief, as is often done in such cases,
had returned the checks and drafts, as
they were useless to him.
Now that the truth is known the bank
officials hope that Wilson will pluck up
courage and return.

is made that the famous likeness of
George Washington by Gilbert Stuart,
known as the Gibbs Charming Avery
portrait, has been acquired by the

1t is believed by many connoiseurs to
be the original study from which six or
eight replicas were made, and is of
unusual interest on account of the opin-

from life.

complete modelling of the head, and 1t
has done much to fix the popular idea

Mrs, Carter Declares She Has Part OF

NEW YORK, July 6.-Chester B'
Runyan, the paying teller of the Wlhu-
sor Trust company, who is alleged TO
have stolen 1917 from that company
and Mrs. Laura Carter the woman VINO
betrayed his hiding place to the ponce
after he had given her a part OF tne t
stolen funds, were arraigned IN tne
police court today. Runyans spirit
seemed to be broken by the disastrous
outcome of his stealing. He had little
to say to anybody and appeared u Oe
terribly distressed.
What had become of $4,000 OF the
total of the companys stoleP funds was
still a mystery, so far as the pubic was
concerned. UP to the time that the two
prisoners were taken to the court
Runyan had in his possession when ar
rested $14,410. OF the balance he SAID
he had lost about $4,000 lin speculation
in stocks before he disappeared from
the office Of the Windsor Trust company
last Wednesday; that he had given $l5,-
900 to Mrs. Carter and that he believed
she had taken $4,000 more without his
knowledge.
Mrs. Carter at first stoutly denied that
she had any of the trust company
funds, admitting that Runyan gave her
$4,000, but asserting that she promptly
returned 1t to him at his request. While
on her way to court today, however, she
said she had deposited all the money
that Runyan gave her in a bank and
that it would stay there if she could
keep it there.
