The quarterly bulletin of the state
board Of health just issued contains a
lot Of valuable information and ought
to be in every household Copies can
be obtained free of charge by writ
ing to DR.. II. d. Holton, Brattleboro.
Among other interesting things this
bulletin contains is report of the
results of several hundred tests made
at the state laboratory of foods, drugs,
etc In the milk tests the Benning-
ton dealers make the best showing of
any town in the state. Some of the
specimens were little below stan
dard in amount of butter fat but all
were clean and free from objection
able bacteria. One thing that the
bulletin should teach housekeepers
is to look out in buying socalled LEM
on and vanilla extracts. Most of
those examined contained absolutely
no lemon or vanilla but did contain
authorizations that rendered them OBJ
jectionable. Among the varieties
found imperfect or wronglylabeled ac-
cording to the bulletin sent out are
"Thepure Vanilla Flavor" Vanilla
and Tonka;" Lemon Extract put
up by w. c. Brate of Albany; Lemon
Orange, Banana, and Strawberry ex
tracts put up by the butcher Drug Co
of st. Adams; Oriental Lemon Elk
tract; Cotton's Lemon Extract; Mil
lers Lemon Extract; Saratoga Lemon
Extract; also several lemon and van
lila extracts sold in bulk.

Electrical Air Filters.

Electric air filtration is the Idea OF
an English engineer, and is based on
the discovery that a body positively
electrified by 100 volts or more will
become covered with SCOT in single
day in smoky atmosphere, while a
negatively charged body remains
clean. Inserting a sheet OF wire gauze
in the intake hue Of yentilaung sys-
tenn and electrifying II by connecting
to a 25O.yolt supply main, the gauze
extracted a large quantity OF SCOT from
the air.

Il noticed that the pictures of this dis
aster have been advertised to take
place at the Auditorium next Saturday

orders that no such exhibition should
take place here. We had some trou-
BILE in finding out who was going to
exhibit them, but we discovered that
they were parties from Cleveland
working in conjunction with M. Best,
Of this city. l have called Mr.. Best
in and told him that l would not
permit it and he will probably make
arrangements for the substitution of
other pictures. l understand that he
will ask them to put on the pictures
Of Bob Evans fleet around the world
and if this is done there will be no
objection raised. l do not deem it
proper to revive the COllinwood Ca
tastrophe."
