than S75 per cent of solids exclusive OF
fat, or not less than 1926 per cent fat
The penalties for persons that handle
milk in stores or on markets are severe
also. 1t is unlawful to have impure
milk in possession. The effect of this
should be to make dealers careful all
along the line. The minimum require
ment for cream is 1 per cent of butter
fat, and severe penalties are to be as
sessed against persons that mix water
or any other substance with cream. An
alyses of milk and cream are to be made
by the chemist of any state institution
without extra compensation, or in
cases where cities employ bacteriolo-
gists or chemists, the ANALYSES may
be made" by them.
Little was said about the Cloes bill
during it's progress through the legs-

most beneficial Of all the laws enacted,
for there is nothing more important
than public health.

Prof. spil1man for Oregon College.

The state agricultural college at Cor
Wallis, Oregon, is to have new head
shortly to succeed President Gotch, and
much interest has been aroused in the
subject among the people of the state,
owing to the prominent position occu-
pied by the college in educational mat
ters Many men have been suggested
for the position, but in our opinion
there is no one who would be better
qualified to discharge the duties OF the
office than Prof w. ]. Spillman, chief
agriculturist of the department of agri-
culture at Washington, D. c., and his
name has been suggested by c. j. Nc
Intosh, school superintendent of Grant
county, Ore. In naming this eminent
educator, who formerly was agricultur-
list at the Washington state college,
Prof. Mcintosh said, among other
things: "It seems strange to me that no
public mention of Professor Spillman

name of Professor Spfllman must have

pure Milk for Our Cities.

The subject of pure milk has beer
before the people more or less for the
past two or three years, and 1T is very
gratifying to have on the statutes Of
Washington some legislation that Is
calculated to raise the standard of the
milk supplied to the cities of the state,
not to mention the innumerable hamlets
where the keeper Of cows brings a Few
gallons twice a day to select list or
customers
The law enacted on the subject by the
last legislature Of Washington is be-
lieved to be a thoroughly good statute
on this question. The bill was intro.
duced by DR.. Cloes representative from
Pierce county. AS it passed. 1T repre-
sented the ideas Of DR.. Cloes and the
dairy committee of the house, of which
Representative Troy, practical dairy
man of Jefferson county, was member.
The state dairy inspector also took part
in the conferences before the bill was
finally put in the form in which 1t
passed, and the law should represent
the best thought on the subject me
law will go into effect June II of this
year.
One or more inspectors of milk shall
be appointed in each Of the cities OF
the state, the law says. The ordinary
precinct politician, whose only argu-
ment for an appointment is his service
for successful candidates, cannot be a
milk inspector under this law, whlch
SPECIFICALLY provides that "all inspectors
hereafter appointed shall be graduates
Of a recognized dairy school or shall
have completed a course in dairying in
a college where such instruction is
given" This provision should insure
healthful interest in the subject on the
part of the inspectors and an unllken-
hood of political favoritism.
The law provides for the collection of
samples OF milk to be tested and for the
issuance of permits to persons engaged
in selling milk or cream in cities from
carriages. It also requires any store
keeper dealing in milk or cream to reg
ister It is made unlawful to sell i'm
pure, infected or adulterated milk or
any milk to which any foreign sub
stance has been added or any milk from
a diseased COW or a cow kept in an un-
clean shed or barnyard, or milk from
which a part of the cream has been
removed or to sell skinned milk with
less than 9.3 per cent milk solids ex-
elusive of fat. The penalty for any of
these offenses is a fine of $50 to 500
for the first offense and for the second
offense 1T is increased to 500 to $500.
If the third offense is committed, the
fine shall be $50 and Imprisonment of
from sixty to ninety days
The law defines pure milk carefully.
1t must be free from pus cells and blood
cells and must contain not less than II
per cent of milk solids and not less

One of the hardest propositions with
which sheepmen of the west have to
contend is making the long shipment
from the mountain country to market,
especially in the fall. At this season
most of the consignments consist of
lambs which are taken off green feed.
They were put on the cars with the only
chance of getting anything to eat at
the regular feeding stations. They are
given dry hay to which they are not
accustomed and they do not take to it
readily. 1t is bad enough when the
railroads get the cars through on sched-
ule time, which they rarely do, but
when vexatious delays occur it is worse.
The result is that the lambs, though
fat at the start, lose much of their
plumpness before they reach market,
but there seems to be no help for it.

The season for planting most of the
crops has about gone now, but there
are many kinds Of seeds that have yet
to be put in the ground, and in case
you have not yet purchased your full
supply for the season it is well to look
around and see from whom you had bet
ter buy. The farm journals Of the north
west still have a large number of ad-
vertisers who offer their seeds, and
among these you will find the firm of
Jacob Kaufman & Co., of Seattle. 1t is
impossible to enumerate in short ar
ticle what this firm has TO offer, but If
you will send to them for one of their
catalogues you will find they have some
of the best and freshest seeds on the
market-and reliable goods, too. Their
advertisement has been in The Ranch

The New York State Changers did
one thing that the farmers all over the
country will have to do sooner or later;
and that is, sound a note of warning in
the matter of road making. In some
places where the state has undertaken
the construction of the public high
ways, great political machines have
grown up that are fairly robbing the
people. Good roads are a blessing, but
they ought to be built so that they will
not entail a grievous burden of taxa
ton upon us and our children.

1t is no disgrace for farmer boys to
learn how to work It is, on the con-
trary, the very best thing that can
happen to them. 1t is manly to be
ready and willing and able to get right
out and hoe corn or run a mower or
drive a reaper all day long. And the
best women we know are not mourning
because they have their work to do In
the home every day. They are proud
of the fact that they know how to do
everything that comes in the way of
good farmers wives to do And the
world owes them a debt it will be
long time in paying.
