DR.. Hamilton was called to Swan

from blast where the men are exca-

breast, and a considerable amount Of
blood was emitted from his mouth, and
his injury thought to lie serious, but
the doctor states that when he left him
he was evidently much improved, and
lie thought he would pull through all
right. Doctor Hamilton was agreeably
surprised at the extent of the improve
ments now under way at the Swan Falls
power plant. The reinforced cement
structure, beneath which the great tur

massive and solid building than its fel

main until the next NJ E. Conference
shall designate where his station shall
be located for the ensuing year. 1t
must be with very considerable sacri,
flee which nothing but a sense OF relig-
ious duty could impel bright Young
man to accept that such services as Mr..
Pemberton has rendered for his church
here. Living in Jordan Valley. upon
such support as the kind people OF that
and the other communities in his dis
trict have bestoN ed, he has travelled,
much of the time afoot, through all his
widely scattered district, holding meet
ings and giving spiritual comfort to the
people with uudaunted cheerfulness,
winning their respect and confidence.
1t has been no easy task to foiego the
comforts and endure the privations
which he and his excellent wife have
done. We hope that he will be assigned
to better field for the future.

Health Department Says Hair on Cows Tail
and Flank Must Be Cut and Lights Put in
Troughs--CIean Suits For Mixers.

Florida, N. Y.-Farmers In New
York State are receiving from the
New York Department OF Health let
ters setting forth the requirements of
the department necessary to insure q
pure milk supply for the New York
City market. The requirements run
all the way from cleaning the window
panes Of the cowpen to cutting the
cows hair.
One farmer who had received a list
of the departments requirements de-
clares that If some of the rules are
carried out there will be a serious
shortage of milk in the market, as to
obey orders would mean a great ex-
pense and require so much time at
tending to the animals that very little
profit would result to heowners. The
farmer said:
while the price Of milk for the
coming six months by one big con-
trolling concern has been advanced
sixteen per cent. over last years
price, it must be taken into consider
alton that the. price OF the principal
feeds has gone up twenty-five per
cent"
The same man pointed out that to
meet the requirements more help
would be required and that all this
would eat up the little profit that the
cow raiser now makes. In addition
1t is hard to get competent help.
Too Early For Cleaning.
One requirement to which local
farmers make strenuous objection is
that requiring that the cowshed be
thoroughly cleaned before the cows
r MIXED. AS the milking is done
very early each morning, perhaps
long before daylight, it can be seen
that the cleaning process will be al
most an impossibility. The farmer
is not wealthy, and many of them
have not the cash to make the re-
QHired improvements about their
premises.
Where are our very small present
profits to come in?" said an owner Of
several head after reading the de-
partment circular. Where is. the
money to come from to put in a non
absorbent floor and six-inch cutters
with rounded corners of the non-ab-
Sorbent material? Are we required
to put in lights, so that the feeding
troughs be lighted? l am unable to
see where it insures pure milk to
have tAe COW e what she is eating,
or perhaps have the window clean so
that she may gaze pensively over the
barnyard while she chews her cud.
Another requirement is that all
the help be provided with clean suits
when they go in to make the COWS
comfortable or relieve them of their
milk. My wife would object to that,
and farmers wives never have much
to do"

AS a general thing the farmers do
not believe that epidemic Of disease
has been caused by the condition of
the milk they have sent to the mar
ket, and they consider that the Health
Departments demands + beyond
reason. Already some are deter
mined not to send their milk to New
York City, and are arranging to send
it elsewhere or dispose OF it locally.
Health Departments Requirements.
Some of the requirements of the
New York Department of Health fol
low:
That the floors be- constructed OF
concrete or some non-absorbent mate
rial.
That the floors be made water tight
and properly graded.
That the drops or cutters be con-
structed of concrete, stone. or some
non-absorbent material That they
be at least six inches IN depth, with
all corners 1bunded.
That the feeding troughs, plat
forms and cribs be well lighted and
kept clean at all times.
That additional windows be in
stalled in the COW barn to provide
sufficient light. 1.-TWO square feet OF
window space for each COW to be the
minimum).
That the window panes be washed
and kept clean at all times.
That the walls and lodges be thor
oughly swept down and kept free
from dust, dirt or cobwebs at all
times.
That an inspection of the herd by
q veterinarian be made and a COPY OF
his report forwarded to this depart
ment.
That the long hairs on the tanks
and tail be clipped and kept short at
|. all times. .
That clean, special suits be pro.
vided for all the attendants engaged
in the production andl handling of
milk.
That the milk at all times be
strained at the milk house, and in an
atmosphere free from dust or doors.
That the milk pals used be Of the
small-mouthed design, SO constructed
that they ian be readily and thor
oughly cleaned, and top opening not
to exceed eight inches in diameter.
That racks be provided In some
suitable place so as to expose the milk
pals to the sun or to live steam.
That q milk house be built and To-
Gated on elevated ground, with no
hog pen within 100 feet.
The New York Health Depart,
ment's instructions tell the farmer In
conclusion that no milk on his prem.
ises will be permitted to be brought
into the city of New York unless con,
ditions are remedied within a certain
time.

unlawful corporation, and that there
have been but few changes either in
stock holdings or management since
the old Oil Trust was dissolved.
More than one-haf of the shares
OF the Standard Oil Company of New
Jersey, which earned profits OF nearly
$500, 100000 in eight years, are held
by ten men and estates.
Accountants who are Working UNI
de- the direction OF Kellogg have
found also that since the formation
OF the original combination in Ohio.
in 1882, the profits Of the oil monop-
oily have amounted to 100000, 900.
From the books Of the New Jersey
Standard Kellogg brought to light
the present stock holdings OF the oil
maghates. There are In round num-
bers 1000 stockholders, but a round
dozen men absolutely control the or
ganization with all ats vast capital
and earnings.
John d. Rockefeller heads the list
with 247,692 shares, Indicating that
the Oil King has reduced his holdings
by 9162 shares, his portion Of the
li~Qufdating certificates, reported in a
recent paper, was allotted to him.
The estate of Charles H. Pratt con-
trolls 52,582 shares, the D. NJ. Hark-
ness estate $4,000 shares, Oliver H.
Payne 10000, Henry NJ. Flagler 3d.
600.
BY this list, which is the stockhold-
ers' record Of August II, 1907, it is
shown that William Rockefeller,
brother Of lie Roi du Petroleum, as the
French call John D., owns only H.
700, and H. H. Rogers, to the surprise
of the Street, only 5000. John D.
Rockefeller, Jr., possesses only 40
shares, and his wife 80, while H. Il.
Rogers, Jr., has to his credit 1850
shares. Another great surprise is
that John d. Archbold, to many re-
garded as the logical successor to
John D. Rockefeller, owns only 5000
shares of the stock.
One surprising development of the
Standard Oil inquiry was that H. H.
Rogers, who all along has been
classed as the third largest holder of
the Oil, Trust stock and rated as an
"Oil King" really OWNS only 5000
shares. His son, H. H. Rogers. Jr.,
holds 1850, and Mrs. Rogers 225, so
that the family has only 1925.
1t would appear from the above
combined figures that Rockefeller has
received from the Standard Oil I'M
t~wenty-four years from 1882 to 1906
something like $143,499,954. The
published list of his benefaetions, SO
fer as a record is obtainabIe of them,
amounts to $102, 055 600, or some
thing over three-ifths Of his entire
income from Standard Oil stock.
