DAIRY DAY

September 4 has been set apart as
Dairy Day at the Alaska-Yukon PACING
Exposition, and dairymen from many
parts of the United States and Can
ada will be present and take part IN
the demonstrations. President Il. j.
Ross of the Washington State Dairy
mems Association will bring ten OF the
hest COWS in the state to the grounds
and will keep them in tent for sew
eral DAYS and make practical demon
STATIONS with the patent mixers.
H. L. Willett, chairman OF the Dairy
Day committee, states that "John
Gould, of Aurora, Ohio, one of the
most expert dairymen in the world
will be present and deliver an ADDRESS
in the Fine Arts hall at o'clock p. m,
September A. H. L. Blanchard, or the
Experiment Station at Puyallup, Will
also deliver an address. We expect
to serve milk, cheese, sandwiches, etc.
to the public on that day, and In every
way possible make it a day OF great
interest to all the people"

TUBERCULOSIS TEST

The Chilliwack, B. c., Dairyman's
Association recently held an open air
meeting, and a practical demonstra-
ton was given by the slaughtering
of two COWS, which were found to be
suffering with tuberculosis. DR..
knight, a Government veterinary sur
geon at Victoria, pointed out the symp-
toms of the disease, by which it could
be determined without the test. The
disease comes in a great many cases
from impure food, water and improper
ventilation of stables. 1t is highly
contagious and a whole herd could
become contaminated by access to the
same watering trough or salt-lick with
one affected animal.
A session of the Dairymens Asso-
citation was held in the Court House.
DR.. MCGEE, of the Pure Milk Commits
sion of Vancouver, spoke for an hour
of bacteriology, principally in connec-
ton with milk and it's relation to
health Mr.. MCGEE stated that the
man who goes into dairying as pro-
fession must be an intelligent man, in
order to keep up to the demands of
the people for pure milk and to handle
and feed COWS at profit. The science
of dairying was one that few realized
the magnitude of, and none as yet had
mastered
In speaking of bacteria in milk and
cream, the speaker carried his audi
ence away back to the early history
of man. He showed where it was
known or supposed to exist at that
time, but it remained for the scien-
lists of the last and the present CEN
tury to find out the real existence of

Idaho health authorities are testing

it is a violation of the state pure

feet us, if it could be made to apply

consumer by making him pay more
for each package of butter. We are
opposed, however, to any construction
of the law which will put Idaho pro-
ducers at disadvantage with outside
dealers. Outside producers pack their
butter just as we now do. 1t would
kill the Idaho trade if Idaho butter
producers had to meet this competi-
ton and were compelled by the local
laws to quote their produce at higher
prices than their competitors.

BULLETIN ON EvAPoRATED MILK


The Estimation of Fat in Unsweet-
ened Evaporated Milk by Modified
Methods" is the title of a new bulletin
No. 1874, from Purdue. 1t gives the
results of a number of important ex-
periments carried on by Prof. o. F.
Hunziker, head of the Dairy Depart
ment, and Prof. G.. w. Splitter, Dairy
Chemist, to determine the cause of
the low per cent of butter-fat in
large portion of the evaporated milk
on the market as reported by chem
lists and pure food departments
throughout the country.
Although the milk contains the
required per cent of butter-fat, when
made into evaporated milk and an
analysis by the usual methods made
shows a shortage of from 0.5 to 2 per
cent of fat, by the experiments ex-
planned in this bulletin it has been
found that there is no less fat present
but that the ordinary Babcock test
and the official methods of fat estima-
ton do not liberate all the fat present.
The fat column in the test bottle is
generally cloudy, and contains charred
and curdy deposits, making accurate
readings difficult. Uniformly correct
results are obtained by the use of a
one-fourth dilution of evaporated milk
and of dilute acid after the first whirl-
ing of the tester in the place of water
Correct results are also obtained by
ether extraction.

JAN hhtOuAV GsApIV6Ss
Prohibition IN Alabama has been
made more drastic. perhaps. than in
any other state In the Union. Practic-
ally every measure OF the legislature
to make the law more effective has
been enacted by large majority In
each house.
One provision, which prohibited the
publication of liquor advertisements in
any of the newspapers of the state,
was stricken out by practically unani-
nous vote, after II had been faycrably
acted on, when the absurdity OF the
inhibition was made apparent.
The most drastic measure yet adopt
ed forbids even the possession OF liquor
except In private residences, and puts
the burden OF proof upon the person ae-
cused as to his Innocence when a
charge of violating the law has been
preferred against him. The lengths
to which Alabama has gone in the
matter of legislation against the liquor
traffic have been SO sxtrefles thaegthey
may defeat their own purpose when
test cases are passed upon by the
courts. The prohibitionists appear to
have beSn in complete control, and to
have shaped legislation without any
regard to the protests OF those mem
bers who were more conservative and
more democratic.
In the enforcement Of her prohibition
laws Alabama has some advantage Of
position. being bounded on all sides by
other prohibition states, except as to
the southern boundary-Tennessee on
the north Mississippi on the west and
Georgia and the Carolinas on the east
II prohibition will not prohibit there,
under such favorable surroundings ana
such drastic tests 1t will not prohibit
anywhere and might as well be ahan-
doned as fixed policy Texas Is now
demonstrating the fact that regulations
can be made to regulate. and as a result
prohibition sentiment In this state Is
believed to be decreasing.
Alabama may be said to offer a SUI
preme test Of the eff1tacy or possibility
OF prohibition by her drastic methods,
and on the success OF failure Of the
experiment may rest important results.

ter another failure. will set to work
to explain how 1t happened and free
himself of all blame for what he failed
to do. But another failure. or a dog

advertising and exploiting himself as

him. We move that Mr.. Wellman sit

The st. Louis Post Dispatch has been
receiving letters complaining in pref
ty strong language of the manners
or rather the lack Of manners-of St.
Louis men on the street cars. The
paper gives a number of reasons for
the conduct of the men OF that city,
but, II adds, no reasons will excuse
failure to observe the rules which gov
ern gentlemanly conduct. Neither
WEAKNESS nor impedimenta will blind
Chivalry to the presence of women. In

for entrance in front of waiting wo-

Observe ton serves to confirm the
view that st. Louis men are very lax
in their street car manners. There
are apparently three reasons: Pay-as-

custom which is very bad: and indIf-
