500 CANAL STATISTICS.
Canadian Lock Has Smashed All of
Its Previous Records.


The Canadian lock is now pumped
dry and the entire staff are engaged
in cleaning operations and i'm repair
ing the floor OF the canal. which dur
ing the season had been badly torn
in places by vessels with too great a
draught. passing through and scrap
ing the bottom, says the 500 News.
The canal has heavily planked bot
tom and many OF the planks had be-
come detached ad hoated out into
the river A large heap of refuse that
had collected in the cuverts which al
low the passage of the water for flood
ing has been removed. and IL is ex-
pected that in another week the lock
can be flooded again. The pair OF
huge upper spare gates were success
fully launched yesterday. The figures
for the traffic through the lock have
Just been completed and form a very
interesting comparison with those OF
the previous season. showing a huge
increase.
In 1903 there were 5.344 passages
compared with 6.42O in 1909. There
were 1861 lockages in 1908 and 5,O4s
in 1909 In 1908 the lock was in
commission for 1883 hours while in
1909 they were doing business FOR
1853 hours. Perhaps most satisfaction
will be felt In the figures for the
total freight carried through last sea
son. In 1908 11.sSG.74O tons passed
through while In the season just ter
minated no less than 27.7Ss.4s5 tons
which IL an increase OF 1879, SOS tons
over the previous season. In 1908 the
total registered tonnage was 954.9ff

Condition Says NJ. T. Murray.

According 10 NJ. T. Murray. secre-
~ of the state board Of corrections

-rs. % .ee OF the state are In a
oadlt on. Mr. Murray states
has submitted a report 20 the
w lch will be used for a basis Of
~ action against some county
critics by the board unless prompt
attention Is paid 20 the recommended
tons for improvements in these build
ings.
At the time the report was made,
35 counties in the northern part Of
the state had been visited by Mr.. Muir
ray. and i'm many Of them he found
frightful conditions surrounding the
care Of the unfortunates and children
in the jails and county inhrmaries, as
well as an utter disregard Of the law
relative 20 the handling OF Juvenile
cases In some poor houses he visit
ed sick men and women, foolish per-
sons and. young children were herded
together.
Some Of the conditions which Mr..
Murray discovered IN some counties
are altogether too degrading TO be
mentioned ia print. and that public
authorities viii countenance such an
act OF utter disregard OF both the law
and sanitation. Is all the more de-
plorable, and 81 rs hoped that these
Investigations VIII bring beneficial re-
salts.
His opinion OF OntOnagon county
innrnary Is expressed in following
few lines. which he wrote 10 DR. J. s.

OF the various mafnals whose milk
Is used for food in diferent parts OF
the world may be mentioned the goat

America: the camel I'm desert coun-

milk is used in some countries for
making cheese. and in other ways
AMI the milk OF reindeer Is common
ly used as food I'm the Arctic regions.
With US the milk OF cows so far sur
passes all other kinds in Importance
that unless otherwise specified the
word milk is taken to refer to cows
milk only.
Good, unaduiterated milk should
contain about 81 per cent. OF water and
10 per cent solids.
Milk contains bacteria OF many
kinds and in varying numbers. They
cause the souring of milk as wen as
the ripening OF cream and cheese, ana
produce many other changes in the
appearance and flavor. The number
present i'm freshly drawn milk varies
enormously with the conditions or
milking. and. as they are greatly In
creased with dirty and careless hand
ling, cleanliness in all matters pertain
ing to the milking and marketing OF
milk and keeping II in the home can
not be too strongly insisted on.
Disease germs. notably those of ty-
phoid. diphtheria. scarlet fever and
tuberculosis. may also be carried In
milk. so that the purity OF the milk
supply is OF vital Importance to every
family and community.
The problem OF keeping milk sweet
is one of checking the growth OF the
bacteria. and as they are inactive at
a temperature below so deg. fahrenheit
milk should be kept in cool place.
Two common methods for preserving
milk are pasteurization and steriliza-
ton.
In the former the aim is to apply
heat in such way as to kin most of
the bacteria without producing unde-
sirable changes in the milk; in the
latter. to apply enough heat to Kill
all the bacteria. but with the least
possible undesirable change. Chemi-
cal preservatives in milk are consider
ed injurious TO health and are for
hidden by pure-food legislation In
many states.
What Is commonly known as the
richness of milk depends upon the
amount of buttermilk it contains
There is so much difference in the
composition of milk from different
cows that many large butter and
cheese factories now test all the milk
they buy and pay for 1t according to
its butter fat content. r..r .,.
Mothers milk is best adapted by na7
ture to the nourishment iofo infants.

gently published. Concealed in a SENSE, Of

pearl Of great price.
Such a secret will be found in the Aots
