REVIEW OF METAL TRADE
Betterment In Industrial Status Is More

fact that for long stretch the mills

MILK TO BE GOOD
FROM NOW ON
BOVINE PRODUCT MUST CONTAIN
AT LEAST 3.25 PER CENT OF
BUTTER FAT INSTEAD OF 2.S5
PER CENT, AS AT PRESENT.

When the new criminal code be-
comes effective next month, all milk
produced in this state, in addition to
being sanitary and produced under
wholesome conditions, must contain
at least 1926 per cent of butter fat
in order to come up to the new
standard. The present standard is
2.S per cent of butter fat. Accord
ing to the new code clause relative
to milk, all milk that does not con-
tain the required amount of fat must
be sold as SKINNED milk.
The new code will require that any
one attempting to sell milk contain
ing less than S.75 per cent of milk
solids, exclusive of fats, will be guilty
of a misdemeanor. Even skinned
milk must contain at least 9.3 per
cent Of milk fats, and cream must
contain 9.3 per cent of butter fat.
The new law defines at length the
term wholesome. In the past, state
officials have In many instances been
unable to secure convictions owing to
the lack of proper legal definitions
of the term. The new code states
that milk will be considered un-
wholesome If adulterated with any
substance added for the purpose of
|thickening. coloring or preserving the
milk; when drawn from cows fed on
unwholesome food or from cows
kept in dirty sheds, yards or barns,
or from unhealthy cows; or when
1t has been exposed to infections or
contagious diseases. Milk drawn by
dirty mixers, or drawn into or kept
In dirty pals, cans or bottles, or
stored In dirty rooms, will also be
sufficient ground for calling the milk
unwholesome. Any milk containing
less than 1925 per cent of butter fat
will be called skim milk. The new
law provides that SKINNED milk must
not be sold anywhere in the state un-
less large sign stating that skim
milk is sold is conspicuously dis
played.
The law goes into effect June IL.

BURGLARS To HAVE
LEAN DAYS
UNDER NEW CRIMINAL CODE
STEALING is MADE SEPARATE
CRIME - PROVISIONS MORE
STRINGENT THAN OLD CODE.

The professional burglar will go
into some other business before the
new criminal code goes into effect
next month, if he is wise.
This is one of the crimes which the
prosecuting attorneys who framed
the code have made considerably
more serious than it was under the
old law, the punishment having been
increased, and a provision added un-
der which any burglar who steals
something may be sentenced for two
different crimes-burglary and lar
ceny.
Burglary is divided into two de-
grees, first and second, the first be-
ing punishable by a penitentiary SEN
tence of not less than five years and
the second by a term of not more
than Is years.
First degree burglary is defined as
follows: Every person who with
intent to commit some crime there
in, shall enter in the night time the
dwelling house of another in which
there shall be at the time human
being, being armed with a dangerous
weapon, or arming himself therein
with such a weapon, or being assisted

Some Household Dangers.

Never fill an oil lamp or paraffin
lamp, either, for that matter, while it is
alight. 1t is quite easy for the vapor to
catch fire and set the spirits or oil in the
bottle ablaze, and an explosion will very
likely follow. Always turn the light out
before refilling it,
After filling lamp, too, be careful to
wipe the outside dry, for any trickle of
oil on its sides might easily catch fire.
Don't allow the oil to stand in the
lamp for very long. If it is not burned
it should be thrown away. 1t gathers
impurities and increases the risk of an
explosion. For the same reason always
keep the parafiin can well corked.
Don't put clothes around the fire to
dry, and then 60 to bed and leave them
A spark may easily fly out of the fire
and set them alight. Never leave a
wood fire unguarded. Always put a
metal fire screen or. something of that
sort in front of it to prevent the sparks
flying.
Don't try to make fire draw by hold.

not set fire to the mantle piece or your
own clothes, it may fly blazing up the

FIRE ESCAPE LAW
TO BE ENFORCED
Fire Factory INSPECTOR to Enforce
Strictly the New Law Requiring
Fire Escapes on Public
HuiIIinpS

Orders have been issued to all
deputy factory inspectors to enforce
the new State law requiring fire es-
Capes and other precautions on pub
lie places,
This Act" we are informed by
Chief Inspector John c. Delany,
'supersedes all previous Acts as to
fire escapes, and is a great improve
ment on them. 1t eXcepts cities of
the first class and second class from
it's provisions. 1t does not include
churches and ordinary dwelling
houses within it's supervision. 1t
settles beyond controversy the vex-
ed question as to lodge halls, as
they are named among buildings
subject to its requirements.
You will note" he says, that
ways of egress and means of escape
may be either fire escapes on the
outside or 'stairways on the in
side You will observe that the
provisions as to doors, passageways
and landings apply only to buildings
used or occupied by SO or more per-
sons.
| THE section which has to do with
theatres and like buildings covers
matters relating to exits, doorways,
aisles, lighting, electric wiring,
drop curtains and borders, fire eX-
tinguishers and illuminated exits
to fire escapes" Now, for the first
time, we have a law requiring doors
to open outward and that fire ex-
tinguishers be provided, and speci-
flying the number and the width of
aisles in both auditoriums and gal
leries.
THE Act specifies, also, that eX-
ternal fire escapes shall be of
wrought iron and shall be kept in
standard condition and painted once
a year.
This is by far the most far
reaching and most important piece
of legislation put upon the depart
ment for enforcement, and it has
in view the safety and saving of hu-
man lives not only of those employ
ed, but also of men, women and
children in all manner of places
where education, healing or amuse-
ment is sought, as we'll as in tene-
ments, apartments and flats where
they are domiciled. Compliance
with it's provisions will be enforced
without fear or favor"

Would Have Done the Same.

Rudyard Kipling undoubtedly got
his wit from his maternal grandfath'
er the Rev. George B. Macdonald a
Wesleyan clergyman.
1t is related of this gentlemah that
in the days when he was counting the
lady whom he afterwards married, the
father-in-law-to-be-an aged Methodist
with extremely strict notions in re-
gard to the proprietors-was injudici-
Gus enough on one occasion to enter
the parlor without giving any warning
of his approach The consequence
was that he found the sweethearts
occupying a single chair.
Deeply shocked by the spectacle,
the old man solemnly said:
"Mr. Macdonald, when was court
ing Mrs. Brown, she sat on one side
of the room and l on the other"
Macdonald's reply was:
That's what / should have done II
had been counting Mrs. Brown"
