To quickly disinfect room use
carbolic acid in boiling water. The
fumes will be carried to all parts of the
room in few moments. 1t is best to
use hot water and carbolic acid for
flushing sink pipes, always covering the
opening in the sink, leaving it SO for
several hours, then flush with cold
water.

FASHION AND woMAN's FIGURE

Chicago professor, denouncing the
present style of feminine clothes as
''frights," says that "the ideal woman's
figure should be an oval"
What have professors to do with
the matter? In the calendar of fash
ion there is a time for curve and a
time for angles. Just now straight
lines are obligatory, and all the laws
of Euclid can not alter them. When
the fancy for crinolines returns woman
viii assume cylindrical proportions.
ana not all the college faculties in
christendom can prevent her. On ques-
tions of female fashion the ballot is
denied to man.
The theory that each generation in
merits the accumulated wisdom of its
predecessors is held in some quarters.
Its fallacy is in no way better proved
than. by the failure of man to profit
py the experience Of his ancestors in
their futile attempts to regulate fem
mime attire. Women as respects fashion
occupy higher world into which
men are not privileged to enter. When

In a case of this kind something
must be done and done quickly. Until
within recent years there was no
known cure for this disease. Now it
is not at all difficult to manage, if the
farmer has prepared himself for it.
The best remedy is simply to pump air
into each quarter of the udder without
drawing out the milk. A veterinarian
should of course be called the moment
the first symptom is noticed. He usu-
ally has appliances. If no veterinarian
is at hand, or if he does not come at
once, wash the udder carefully with
warm water and some antiseptic, wash
the hands carefully, take a milk tube
and the rubber tube of a bicycle pump
after they have been boiled for fifteen
minutes in water, and simply pump
air into each quarter. Tie a band
around the upper end of the teat be-
fore you remove the milking tube in
order to retain the air. Those who
keep many COWS should have at hand
the milk fever outfit which is especial
ly designed for treatment of this dis
ease With this outfit at hand there
is no need of losing any COWS by this
disease. This remedy, when applied,
has saved 95 per cent of the COWS thus
affected both in this country and in
Europe where it was first introduced.

DAIRY FARMING PAYS.

One who has tested the matter COM
piles the paying factors in the follow
ing paragraphs in very concise way:
1t takes less fertility out of the soil
than any other form of agriculture,
and hence it is useful in following a
well-regulated system of rotation.
1t can be combined readily with 9th
er forms of agriculture or horticul-
ture.
The dairy provides in winter guam
tity of stable manure in which the
straw from the barn is profitably util-
lied.
The by-products from the COW, skim
milk, whey, and buttermilk, are a
source of income in raising pigs and
calves.
Dairying gives constant and regular
employment of light character to
every member of a farmers family.
Dairying inculcates habits of pune
tuality, industry, cleanliness and
thrift on the farm
Cheese and butter are condensed
products. and the cost of carriage, in
comparison with their value, is less
than that of any other farm product
The demand for good butter and
cheese on the worlds markets is I'M

maintained, an all-around, even and
profitable price can always be secured

from yearly crops.
In mixed farming, the income from
the dairy is most reliable.
The farmers household, as a result
of dairy work, is always supplied with
fresh milk and cream, butter, cheese,
pork, bacon and veal.
Storekeepers, traders, bankers

where dairy COWS are scarce, l found
that land was extremely cheap and
civilization not very far advanced,
while in Holland, Denmark, Switzer-
land and the Island of Jersey, where
dairying is the principal occupation,
land was often worth several hundred
dollars per acre and in some cases
$4,000 per acre. Upon inquiry, the

CONDENSED MILK STANDARDS.

Dairymen of the Pacific Northwest
heartily endorsed the vigorous protest
entered by the commercial bodies of
Washington and Oregon and ne dairy
associations and condensed milk inter
ests of both states against the adop-
ton by the Pure Food Conference at
Mackinac Island, Michigan, of stand
ard for evaporated milk requiring %
per cent of solids, of which TT per
cent shall be butter fat. 1t is con-
tended by the milk interests of the
Pacific Coast that the milk put up
here averages 8 per cent in butter fat,
which is much higher than is required
by the standard asked to be estab-
lished, but that it is impracticable to
furnish 26 per cent of solids other
than butter fat. Climatic conditions
and abundant pasture make the milk
of the Pacific Northwest exceptionally
rich in butter-fat, but without the high
percentage of solids resulting from
feeding eight months in the year.
kilograms were recently sent to
James Wilson, Secretary of Agricul-
ture, and H. w. Wiley, chief chemist
of the Department of Agriculture, pro-
testing against the enforcement of the
order of the National Pure Food Com
mission as to the standard demanded
of condensed milk products. A reply
was received to the effect that the
commission had no right to establish
a standard and that the milk as now
manufactured would continue to be
recognized by the government.
Butter fat is the only solid in milk
that is usually considered by the pub
lie as of much value and it would
seem that $40 of 1 per cent of butter
fat should easily take the place of 2
per cent of miscellaneous solids. North
Pacific Coast dairymen and condens-
ers desire a butter fat requirement,
with such solids as come from the use
of whole milk in their product, so that
there will be no overplus in butter fat.
This could be done by reducing the
per centage of casein. We are in
formed that this question will be made
the subject of further investigation.
