CHILD DROWNED IN CLAY hole BIG
TOBACCO SALE The RECORD
uEl0S---PERsONAl MENTION.

LAKE CRY, September TO-
A most distressing accident
happened at Mr. Alexander Jor.
dams last Thursday, the drown
ing of his eighteen months old
baby. Mrs Jordan is daugh-
ter of the late MIR Aaron T Rod
gers and the old Rodgers home
stead, where MIR and Mrs Jor-
dan live, was the scene of the
tragedy. There is a "clay hole"
partly filled with water between
Hthe house and the field. The
child's father had just gone to
the field and the supposition is
that the little fellow was en-
deavoring totollow when he fell
into the "clay hole" Life was
quite extinct when the body
was discovered and taken out.
The blow was a fearful one to
the parents. The shock was
such a terrible one to Mrs Jor-
dan that the attention of physi-
clans was necessary. Mr. and
Mrs Jordan are most excellent
and highly respected people and
the teuderest sympathy of the
entire community goes out to
them.

TU6ERcLE eAcILLI IN BUTTER.
Not a. Apt to Be Present In Butter
Made from Sour Cream.

Il has been assumed that butter as
well as milk contains tubercle bacilli
at times and Is therefore a source of
danger. But little is as yet known
about what happens to the bacilli In
cream and in butter, but here and
there are going on investigations that
have In them much of interest. II Is
possible that in butter are found other
forms Of bacterial life that are more
powerful than the disease germs and
are able to destroy them. This seems
to be indicated from experiments that
have been made at various times,
though we must not assume that the
matter is as yet settled. In Germany
some experfmenters. added some tu-
bercle bacilli to sweet cream and made
butter of 1t. After ten days the but
ter was examined and the, bacilli
found to be alive. 1t was examined
10 days after being made and the
tubercle bacilli were found to be dead
1t is possible that the increase of fer
ments in the butter resulted In the
destruction Of the disease germs. This
was further indicated by the results
OF placing some of the bacilli in sour
cream and making butter out of that
The germs were found to be alive
after seven days, but dead after ten
days. This is an encouraging feature
of the examination. We may conclude
from 1t, says Farmers Review, that If
there is danger of tubercle bacilli be-
ing present In milk that is to produce
the cream for butter, it is better for
the butter to be made from sour
cream than from sweet cream. 1t
seems quite evident that the Tactic
acid ferments are enemies Of the
disease germs.

DANGERS IN MILK.
Unless Carefully Handled II 10 the
Most Dangerous Of Foods.

Milk Is one of the most nutritious
and healthful of foods and it may be
one Of the most dangerous of foods.
Many contagious diseases are spread
by milk. Germs or bacteria find in
milk the best place possible for them
to grow. After they get into milk the
only way to check or stop their growth
is to cool 1t to near so degrees Fab
renheit or heat It to at least $50 de-
grees Fahrenheit; the latter treatment
will destroy nearly all the germs.
Many astonishing statements and
sentences with long words in them can
easily be reeled off on the subject of
bacteria In milk. but Il Is sufficient
here to say that the dust and air of
most COW stables Is loaded with bac.
terra. and when they get into the milk
they multiply at the rate of millions
per minute. This ought to be a suf.
ficiently startling statement to cause
the milker who has never heard II be-
fore to pause and consider his ways.
His duty to his family and to humanity
In general when he Is milking Is a Sc
rious matter. Is the air Of the stable
pure and free from dust during milk
ing? Would he be willing and glad to
eat a plate of soup while he is milking
a COW? II not, why not? Isn't milk
human food and isn't the milk pail
that is under the COW being filled with
food for his table? Are you proud of
the place where your cows are kept
and would you be beaming with smiles
II the persons who buy your milk
should call on you In the stables at
milking time?
Many cases are on record which
prove conclusively that milk has been
the means Of spreading such conta-
lgious diseases as tuberculosis, diph-
iberia, typhoid fever and scarlet fever.
Such possibility as this certainly
ought to convince mixer that his
work is serious business and while
he cannot see the germs that fill the
air around the milk pail. he can at
least take every precaution possible to
keep the milk free from dust and dirt
Of every description while he Is milk
ing.
People who handle our milk supply
may be divided into two classes, says
the Northwestern Agriculturist. First.
those who know how to take proper
care Of 1t but fail to do so. and. second.
those who really do not know just
what things ought to be done in order
to keep milk in the purest condition
possible until IL reaches the consumer
or factory.

DAIRY NOTES.

Is your creamery equipped for pas.
teurizing the skim milk?
"As good as the wheat" is out of
date. "As good as the COW" suits us
better.
No one ever heard of creamery
patron kicking about his test-when
1t went up.
The man who can't treat his dumb
animals kindly will not make the right
kind Of husband.
The worst of us have our good
points. ">although 1t is hard work to
find them sometimes.
It doesn't pay to tie to the man who
agrees with your every view. The
world wants thinkers.
Our hopes and actual realizations
generally need an introduction In or
der to know each other.
An old dairyman says clover Is
worth as much, pound for pound, for
feeding calves as whole milk.
What would some of our dairymen
do If the good cows did not pay the
losses incurred by keeping scrubs?
The man who makes up his amind
quickly often STRIKES 1t rich," and
then again gets into all kinds of trou-
BILE.
Sentiment in favor of better methods
on the part Of both operator and pa
irons OF the creamery is fast gaining
ground.

The Salt Box.

OF salt tackled up under the shed
where the cattle can lick it, or an.
other good way to use loose salt Is
to construct box in the pasture such
as shown in the sketch, which is par
TALLY filled with salt. The hole should
be large enough, says Farm and
Home, that the COW can put her nose
into 1t and lift the lid up. The
cattle will examine the box. and smell
ing the salt through the half-moon
shaped hole, put their noses in and
lift up the lid. AS soon as thV are
through licking, the lid will drop and
protect the salt from the rain.

Pasteurlzatlon.

Pasteurization is not yet perfected
by any means. 1t destroys the Tactic
acid bacteria, but not the spores of
bacteria. In consequence. while the
milk may not be sour two days after
its receipt, 1t may have putrid smell
due to the butyric or putrefactive bac-
terra. The only milk At for human
food Is clean raw milk kept continu-
ously at low temperature.
