RULES FOR TEST
ing CREAM

Assistant Dairy Commissioner
Flint has issued the following to
cream buyers and sellers:
/ wish to call your attention to
the following regarding the testing
of cream.
Cream shall be tested by weight
and the standard unit for TESTING
shall be eighteen grams, an dthe
standard test tubes or bottles shall
have a capacity of ten cubic cent?
meters of mercury at temporal
ure of sixty degrees Fahrenheit, be-
tween zero and fifty on the grad
uated scale on the neck thereof"
1t is made misdemeanor to use
any other means of determining the
amount of fat in cream except by
the Babcock test, or to use and
other weight or bottle than those
described above.
''It shall be unlawful for the own
er, manager, agent or any employee
Of any creamery to manipulate I'M
der-read or overhead the Babcock
test"
Patrons of creameries or cream
stations are entitled to a square deal
and this can only be had with a
strict observance of the testing reg
ulaticns.
Buyers, manufacturers and pro-
ducers of cream are warned against
buying, selling or manufacturing in
to any article of human food cream
that is unclean, impure, unhealthy
or that has been drawn from cows
that are unhealthy.
The penalty for a violation of
this section is fine of not less than
fifteen or more than fifty dollars,
or Imprisonment of not less than
ten, nor more than ninety days, or
both.
Consumers of butter have a right
to insist that it be clean, healthful
and made from wholesome cream
and it is the purpose of this Office
to enforce this regulation as strict
ly as possible believing it is to the
best interest of all.
All dealers in cream should in
struct their patrons in caring for
and handling their product so that
we may raise the standard of our
butter.
An example of neatness and clean
illness in places where the testing Is
done and the cream is handled and
stored, will be helpful. Remember
you are handling food product and
one that is most susceptible to bad
odors and conditions.
Cleanliness should be our watch
ward all along the line in produc-
ing high grade dairy products.
Yours truly,
R. F. FLINT,
Asst. Dairy Commissioner.

HOW THE MOON LOOKS.

Queer Variance Ia Impressions as to
a the Same Object.
asked my men to compare the size
Of the full moon to that Of some OBJ
ject held in the hand at arms length.
explained the question carefully and
said that they were to describe an
object just large enough when seen at
arms length to cover the whole moon.
My list of answers begses as follows:
Quarter of dollar, fair sized canta-
loupe; at the horizon, large dinner
plate; overhead, dessert plate; my
watch. six inches in diameter, silver
dollar, hundred times as large as my
| watch, mans head, fifty cent piece,
nine inches in diameter, grape fruit,
carriage wheel, butter plate, orange.
ten feet. two inches, one cent piece,
schoolroom clock, pea, soup plate,
fountain pen, lemon pie, palm Of the
hand, three feet in diameter-enough
to show again the overwhelming man
ifoldness Of the impressions received.
To the surprise of my readers per-
haps it may be added at once that the

wine men OR
CAME FOR fight

San Francisco, Cal, April 21.-
There is no better wine made in
any part of the world than that
California.
The soil and climatic conditions
in certain parts of California far
surpass those in southern France
famous for centuries for it's rare
wines and champagnes. In Califor-
MIA the grapes attain greater size
and contain more rich juice than
in any other part of the world. On
this account the vintages of Cali
fornia have been highly praised by
experts in Both America and Eur
ope-as possessing that wonderful
and matchless flavor of the rare
wines of oldentimes-impossible to
counterfeit.
1t is an actual fact that many
thousands of dollars worth of the
best California wines are shipped to
Germany, France and Italy every
year-there bottled under we'll adj
vertised foreign labels and sent
back to America to be sold for
enormous prices.
Again, it has been the case that
INSCRIPTIONS dealers throughout
the country have been muleting the
people by selling them so-called
california Wines" that had never
seen the beautiful vineyards of the
Land of Eternal Sunshine"
1t was found that nearly all real
California wines sold through deal
ers had either been adulterated OF
spoiled by careless handling thereby
running their matchless quality and
delicious flavor.
To stamp out this evil the leading
wineries CT California, the foremost
of whom is the Santa Rosa Vine.
yard company with wineries in Son
oma county and main offices in Los
Angeles, have inaugurated the ex
cellent plan of selling direct from
the producing winery to the con
sumner. Under this method it is i'm
possible for the wine to be tamper
ed with, the consumer receives the
wine in the best condition and 81
prices impossible for any local deal
er to duplicate.

CAIssON WORK.
How Foundations Of Great Steel
Structures Are Built

Structures Are Built.
The foundations for the great steel
structures are built by means Of cais-
sons in which the men can work under
great pressure Of air. 1t is very
interesting sight TO watch them, and
the best of it is that any one may see
them at close range from an adjoining
sidewalk. The caisson is a hollow steel
cylinder open at the bottom and Just
large enough to permit man to work
The workman climbs down a ladder in
this tube and digs away the earth at
the bottom AS the earth is taken
away the steel tube is gradually low
cred. The earth Is taken out by a
bucket. which Is lowered and raised by
tall derrick at one side. AS the
caisson sinks, air is pumped into the
compartment containing the man. This
Is to force back any water or dirt that
might fill the hole from the outside as
fast as the workman removes it from
within. The pressure of this air is of
ten so great that man can work but
an hour or SO at time. At the top
of the caisson is steel cylinder with
an air tight door at either end. which
serves as a kind of vestibule to the
tube below
When one of the caisson workers
starts to go to work he opens the door
or lid at the top and climbs in, when
the opening is once more tightly clos
ed. This door or lid is air tight Aft
err the opening to the outer air has
been closed the workman opens the
door at the bottom of this steel com.
partment and let's in compressed air
from the caisson below. 1t takes a
few minutes to become accustomed to
breathing this atmosphere, for the
heavy air makes the head ring. As
soon as the workman can do SO he
climbs down into the funnel below,
closing the lower door Of the steel
anteroom as he does so. AL this must
be done in the dark. IL the workman
wishes to signal the outer world he
may do SO by striking the steel sides
Of his narrow prison with his shovel.
He usually signals in this way when
the bucket is to be raised or lowered

That the measure will pass that body is

So many differences of opinion on the

done on this important question.
Glover FavOrs Bill.
Charles c. Glover. president Of the
Riggs National Bank. appeared yesterday
before the House COMMITTEES on Banking
and Currency and urged the passage Of
the Aldrieh bill. Mr.. Glover said that
unless some emergency currency law
similar 10 that proposed in the Aldrich
measure, is passed by Congress. another
panic will come upon the country next
fall
After reviewing the panic OF last fall
and stating that another viii come this
year. if no provision is made for an emer-
gency currency. Mr.. Glover continued by
saying:
The Secretary OF the Treasury went
to the relief of the. banks last fail TO the
best of his ability. His action was wise
and courageous, and 10 him the country Is
indebted for a course that prevented
widespread disaster and ruin. But the
Treasury viii be in no condition to afford

NAVY FOUNDRY GOES OUT.
Point of Order Kills Amendment to
House Bill.

Two feeble attempts were made yester-
day to insert provision in the naval
appropriation BILL whereby Congress
would appropriate S9OOOO0-one-third to be
Immediately available-for the erection Of
a foundry at the Washington Navy Yard.
Representative Cary, Of Wisconsin. tried
twice TO have an amendment Of the
nature outlined above tackled on the bill
attached TO items respecting the local
yard. Representative Foss, chairman of
the Naval Committee killed the first
amendment on point of order.
The second was objected 10 by Repre-
sentative Loudenslager. Mr. Cary said
that during the last Congress similar
amendment to the naval bill had been
permitted TO be debated in the House and
a point of order made against it had not
been sustained. Mr. Cary did not, how
ever. frame his amendment IN compliance
with the one which was not ruled out
last year, because Representative Mann.
chairman of the Committee of the Whole.
said so.
Mr.. Mann ruled Mr.. Cary's amendment
out with one sweep. and the members
who were friendly to It said never a
word. II is said that If the amendment
had been drawn in accord with that
proposed ana debated last year, it would
have gone through-certainly it would
have occasioned some debate and brought
out a close vote.

HIS BATTLE-sHIP MESSAGE.
President Wants Four sen Fighters.
HobSon Gets the Credit.

President Roosevelt has made up his
mind definitely to send TO Congress a
special message, which he has had in
preparation. recommending that money
for the construction Of four battle ships
be appropriated at this session.
The message has been completed, and
the present intention Of the President is
20 transmit it TO the Senate and House
to-day The battie-ship feature Of the
naval appropriation bill viii be discussed
by the House to-day or tomorrow.
To Representative Richmond Pearson
Hobsou OF Alabama. a Democrat who
was once a constructor in the United
States navy. and who earned a world
wide reputation In the Spanish war by
sinking the collier Merrimac in Santiago
Harbor to prevent the escape Of Ger
vera's squadron, much credit IS siven for
Inducing the President to prepare the
battle-ship message.
The Naval Committee, Of which Nj.
Hobson Is a member, made provision for
two battle ships only, or rather for au-
thoritv to construct two. leaving the ap-
preparation of money for the purpose TO
be included in the naval bin Of next year.
The President wants a direct appr0pria-
ton for four battle ships instead OF mere
authorization for the construction or
two. Mr. HObson was at the White House
yesterday. very happy in the knowledge
that the message recommending four big
armorclads would so ia Congress.
The Republican leaders Of the House
have made up their minds. apparently,
to resist the expected effort to appropri-
ate for four battle ships. and they are
hopeful Of having their way.
