SOURCE OF DISEASE

1.-THE most usual diseases that may
be transmitted in milk are tuber-
cuiosis, diphtheria, typhoid and scarlet
fever. Tuberculosis causes more deaths
then any other infectious disease. u

cattle. Tho latter have 1t in the same
CORN is man, though it has not yet
been conclusively proven that bovine.
tuberculosis Is produced by tho same
germ as that which develops consump-
ton in the human organism. Never
thcless, it is an almost established fact
that infants may be infected by the boz
vine tuberculosis. and it therefore fol-
lows as a probability that adults, es-
Specially II weak and susceptible. may
also take the malady in that way. In
the east perhaps per cent of the
animals have tuberculosis Ill this
state comparatively few. a Very mucn
smaller percentage. of dairy animals
are affected Not every COW will con-
taminate her milk when she has tu-
bcrculosis in some other part of the
body. But if the disease is in the I'D
dea, Which is somewhat q common
condition, she will secretc milk con-
taninated by the germs.
when typhoid fever germs occur in
milk, they do not come from the COW.
The germs are carried in tho water
drank by the animals. The typhoid

''tThe diphthcria organism comes also
from man, 1T usually gains access to
the milk from the mixer, say through
his coughing, whereby some of the in
visible sputum spray may he carried
into the milk vessel. Like the typhoid
organism. this one grows rapidly in
milk, and may infect those who drink
it.
.fThe organism OF scarlet fever has
never been isolated. Ii is thought.
however. that 1t gains access TO tho
milk from some person infected with
the disease.
The matter of cleanliness is much
misunderstood. In the sanitary sense,

the use Of dish ragsSor dist towels is
the best method.
1.-THE dish rag is an unnecessary evil
about milk dishes and utensils. A brush
will do the work better. First wash
the milk vessel in warm npt hoD Wa
ter, to avoid cooking any of the milk
adherinS to its sides. Next rinse out
with hot water. or stelilize with steam.
Then let the dishes dry naturally. Do.

The work of removing it began this af-

rear Of the company's headquarters cn
West Temple street, where great con-
crete and masonry foundations have
been prepared for its installation. This
motor-generator costs the company
$4,000. and it is of 5000 horse power.
The motor part receives the alternat-
ing current from the high tension sup
ply wires. with which it runs the gen
orator which generates the direct cur
rent necessary to operate the street
railway. In 10 days, when this great
machine is set up, the company will
have 5000 horse power, If not more, un-
der it's direction. and there need be no
more apprehension as to any shortness
in power
The company also received today,
three 1000 kilowat transformers for the
Jordan station, and two 375 kilowat
transformers for the Granite station,
