began evolving an idea. When the milk
had all passed through the machine, the

accomplish this, a noat was arranged to
rest on the milk. This was connected
with the electric current operating the
motor. in such n manner that when the
milk was exhausted the float was low
cred to point where 1t broke the cir
cult, cutting Off the power and .topping
the machinery. simultaneously with the
breaking Of the current a dish OF water,
previously placed above the separator,
was emptled by an ingenious device into
the separator before it had yet ceased
to revolve, and the machine was thor

made to stop automatically at the mo-

able task Of rinsing itself out properly.

Food is coming into the city from the

where thousands OF persons are huddled
under improvised tents rooted over and

At present there is Almost urgent need

if it should come it will involve untold
