making the present number J6f men,

growing smaller Since Dec 1892, for
q period of is years the, loss has been
45 members.
Scarlet fever has been quite preva-
lent at Pleasant Point since Septem-
Der. There We're not many deaths from
mat disease, but several families were
quarantlned and the schools were
closed for time. The disease has now
been Pretty we'll stamped out, and the
schools are again open, but much sick

cases of scrofula and consumption than
usual and more families have to be

Save the Rotten Trees.

When the trunks of cherry trees
have started to decay probably the
best way of checking it is to clean
out the dead wood, paint the wound
thoroughly with whitewash. or, better
vet, with Bordeaux mixture, and then
cover the whole wound with grating
wax or clay, so as to keep the water
out. While this may not result in an
entire healing over Of the bad wounds.
it will probably stop the decay. and
make the trees last longer than they
would if left without treatment. Don't
be afraid to remove all the rotten
wood, as it adds nothing to the
strength of the tree and has tend
ency to promote rot in the new tissues.
1t is quite likely that this rot started
in the tunnel of borer and has grad
ually spread until it is serious.

What Certified Milk Is.

In the larger cities there is con-
stantly increasing demand for certi-
fed milk for which higher prices are
paid. The word certified" has been
registered in the United States patent
Office and can legally be used on milk
only by what is known as the city's
medical milk commission. There are
now twenty-five of these commissions
in this country. A veterinarian
examines the cows to see that they
are in perfect health. Samples OF the
milk are tested by chemist alr: must
be free from foreign matter and con-
tain a certain percentage of butter
fat. A bacteriologist examines sam
pies for any trace of disease-produc-
ing bacteria and for the presence OF
excessive numbers of bacteria of any
sort. Representatives of the commits
sion make personal inspections of the
dairy to insure that the milk is ram
died under strictly sanitary condi-
lions. Only in case all these reports
are satisfactory does the commission
certify to the milk.
The certified product is used mostly
for feeding babies and invalids. The
inducement offered the dairyman Is
the increased price, which varies
with the locality from 8 to ~ cents a
quart to the customer. the price OF
market milk varying from to 10
cents. The growth of the industry
has warranted the issuance of bus-
letin on the subject by Clarence b.
Lane, assistant chief of the dairy
division of the bureau of animal In
dustry. This is designated as bulletin
No. 104 of the bureau OF animal In
dustry and may be had by addressing
request for it to the secretary OF
agriculture, Washington, D. G.
