USE SANITARY MILK PALS
Have Small Opening and Some Pro-
Vided With strainer to Keep
Out All Dirt.

There are a great many different
styles of sanitary pals used in the
production of certified milk. any of
which are an improvement over the
old open pail which has no provision
for keeping out dirt and which should
not be used in any dairy.
Generally speaking. the sanitary
pals have a small opening. Some are
provided with a strainer through
which the milk passes in entering the
pail. This strainer consists in some
cases OF metal wire. but is not so sat
fsfactory as a cheese cloth strainer.
Aside from the strainer used in the
pals absorbent cotton is generally
preferred. This is usually inclosed
between two thickness of cheese
cloth, a method found to be very
practical
The pail shown on the left in the H.
lustration is a good, sanitary milk pail.
The height is convenient and as the
opening is on the side there is but
little chance for dirt to fall in. The
seams are all well flushed with solder.
The objection to this pail. if any. is

FOR SUNDAY SUPPER

and Guests Help Them

Informal suppers on Sunday even

by one country hostess for her friends,
and so successful have these affairs be-
come that never is she without sew
eral visitors, and. as the meal is of a
kind that can be served at any hour,
guests have no feeling of being too
late.
The hostess has but one servant,
and allows her to go out every Sun
day. 1t is easier to do without any
service than to have that which is
bad. the employer sensibly maintains,
and declares that 1t would be de-
moralizing to work at other times.

Dairy Cow as Machine.

a high-bred dairy COW is an ex.
tremely complicated organism. You
may regard her as a machine which is
being worked to its highest efficiency.
For this reason the importance Of
ministering to her needs is not so
much a humanitarian problem as a
question of dollars and cents. The
better care we take of our cows the
more profit we gat from them. Re.
peated tests have shown that there Is
an appreciate difference in the yield
of milk from cows that are worried or
annoyed by children. dogs. flies. and
so on, and from those that are kept
quiet and undisturbed

PEARY IS GIVEN
ESKIMO'S SUPPORT
Their Recital of Polar Trip Tai
lies With Explorers.
NATURE FAVORED TRAVELLER
Ice Smooth and Weather Good, Making
Long Journeys Possible, Rasmus-
sens Report Shows-Blow
to Cook.

Copenhagen. Knud Rasmussen
has forwarded from Greenland the
story told of their trip poleward by
the Eskimos who were with Comman-
der Peary last year.
This story, which TALES with that of
the explorer. is as follows in the words
Of the Eskimo Ukujak:
Leaving the ship (Roosevelt) we
Travelled north in the months of Febru-
airy and March. Before the departure
many sledges were sent ahead, three
at time. with food for men and dogs.
Peary Travelled with Kitdlugtok and
Arkriok. After five nights the depot
supply sledges returned.
During the whole trip We had fine
weather. When only three days jour
aey from land we were delayed by
open water. Well over this, we had
no delay on the whole route; ahead
the ice was splendid. After lesving
Capt. Bartlett we did five days jour
ney. Before separating from Captain
Bartlett Peary had taken several OBJ
serVations. Now since we were alone
Ae took observations oftener when the
tent was pitched. We still had food
Tor men and dogs.
We were so far north that the sun,
however late at night, stood high in
the sky, moving in a circle, without
going up or going down. Finally Peary
ordered halt and thereupon he him
self, with two men, continued the jour-
ney, but returned the same day, hav-
ing done the forward and backward
Journey without rest. AT last, said
Peary to US, 1 have reached what l
wanted" AT this place we slept two
sights. Peary was very much en-
aged with observations and the last
p!ght he did not sleep at all
ION the way home We had fine
weather without any fog. How long
the days journeys on the outward and
homeward journeys were we do not
know. The fine easy ice made very
long journeys possible every day. On
the whole trip home we had only one
days rest. That was when we reached
land. Now, Peary was in a great hur-
ry. Together with me and Igganguak
one nights rest. We and our compan-
Ions slept two nights. Later on, after
we had reached the ship, we had an
eclipse of the sun.
I'VE did not notice Peary's happi-
ness at the pole, but after the arrival
at the ship he arranged festivity for
the Americans and for us Eskimos.
This is all we, Igganguak and Ukujak,
have to tell about the journey with
Peary."
Rasmussen's report from the Eski-
mos of Cooks party and those of
Peary's party has made a strong i'm
preston here. where many still be
lieved that the Eskimos would rehabil.
itate DR.. Cook In the confidence of the
public. The National Tidende says
that their story means the final rejec-
ton of the doctors claim that he
reached the north pole. The newspa-
per adds that the story told by Com
mander Peary's EskiInos gives valua-
BILE support to his own narrative.
