THE FARM MILK HOUSE.

Plans for building small milk
houses have been given in dairy pap
ers and the catalogues of dairy sup
ply firms.
At farms where hand separator
is used and the cream sold, a small
milk house will answer every pur-
pose. One large enough to give space
for the separator and water tank,
through which the water is pumped
directly from the well and then to
the stock tank, is all that is needed.
The question has arisen as to the
ACCESSIBILITY of placing a gasoline en-
CINE, when this is used as farm
power, in this milk house. There is
little danger of communicating the
cream from the odor of the engine,
if this is well taken care of and the
exhaust from the engine is tightly
connected to pipe which leads out
side the building.
The cooling of the cream as it
comes from the separator is abso-
lutely necessary. 1t should be brought
to near 50 degrees as soon as pos
sble after separating, then placed in
cans and these allowed to stand in a
tank of cold water until the cream is
collected by cream haulers.
If the milk house contains in addi-
ton to these pieces of apparatus,
some sort of boiler. for furnishing
hot water and wash sink, these can
be included in the same building but
it is advisable to place the boiler in
a separate room.
1t is important that the milk house
be built with a cement floor and ce-
mented corners from the floor up the
walls for at least one foot. This gives
a sanitary surface which can be
flushed with water and kept clean.
provided the floor pitches we'll to the
gutter and a good drain with a trap
in carries off all surplus water spilled
on the floor.
After the essential points of a good
milk house are well understood, each
farmer or dairyman can determine
for himself how large a building he
wants and locate it in a dry clean
place where it will not be contain
mated by the drainage or the odors
from the cow stable, pig pens or any
refuse material.

S. p. ELECTS VICE PRESIDENTS

CHICAGO, March lot is an
nounced by the Record Herald that
directors of the Southern Pacific rail-
road met in New York today and
elected three vice presidents who will
have their headquarters in San Fran
CISCO
The new officials are: E. o. Nc
Cormick, formerly assistant traffic d.
rector of the Hartman lines at Chi
cago, to be vice president in charge OF
all the lines of the Southern Pacific
company, including those in Cali
fornia, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada,
Utah and Oregon; William F. Herrin
formerly general counsel Of the COM
pany, to be vice president in charge
of the legal and land departments,
and E. E. Calvin, formerly vice presi-
dent and general manager, to be vice
president in charge Of the transpor-
tation, construction, purchasing, pen
sion and hospital departments.
The changes were made to
strengthen the Southern Pacific or
ganization on the Pacific coast, this
being necessitated by the rapidly in
creasing business.

that to his old side kick, William Loeb,
and Loeb told him to take the civil
service examination. He did, and was
named as an assistant inspector in
1904. He was bright-eyed boy, all
right, and made good at the work.
Promotions came fast after that until
he was assigned to duty on the sugar
pier in New York.
Parr, at the time that he caught the
trust with it's hands in Uncle Sans
pocket. was making fully $1,000 a
year, out of which he had to pay the
expenses of a mother and an invalid
sister, and his own living cost. All
that was left he could have for him
self. 1t isn't necessary to say that
rent day came around mighty often in
the Parr home; but, in spite of that.
Prar had the courage to refuse brides
offered by the trust if he would shut
up and go away Not that he vas at
all immune to the call of the dollar.
One Of the chief things he doesn't like
about former Assistant Secretary J.
b. Reynolds is that the latter put
through a rule calculated to jar Farr
loose from reward he thinks is due
him from the government. Parr wants
a Part of the $2,O00,oO9 the govern

until he gets it.

iodic application of the tuberculin

than the seemingly healthy, tubercu-
lous herd had been that he had alb
solutely no reason to regret the ex-

The tuberculous cow, even when
she retains the appearance of health,
and externally gives the impression
that she is a normal animal, is not
as efficient. productive or economical
as the healthy cow The food eaten
is partly used to feed the disease that
is active in her body; she is the pri-
mary and only serious source from
which tubercle bacilli that causes
tuberculosis in other cattle are scat
tered; she is responsible for most of
the tuberculosis that occurs among
hogs, and the alarming increase of
frequency with which hogs have been
found to be affected with tuberculo-
sis in recent years must be charged
to their more common exposure to
tuberculous cattle

In National Capital

WASHINGTON, March 11.-(Special
Ito the Statesman -One hundred and
forty dollars for street car tickets;
s23766 for horseshoeing. $42s.55 for
|soap and brushes!
These are few Of the expenditures
of the state department. in 1909. The
rseshoeing refers to the shoeing of
t our horses, except during a period of
about three months, when the number
was six.
The expenditures referred to were
brought to light as a result of a meet
ing of the house committee on expen-
ditures in the state department. The
meeting was the first that has been
held since the republican party has
been power.
The committee was one of several
committees on expenditures in the
ment that had never held a meeting.
Yet there are few more important COM
nittees appointed by the speaker than
the committee on expenditures Of the
state, treasury, war, navy, postoffice,
interior and agriculture departments
that is, if these committees do their
duty. Under the rules they are
charged with the examination of the
accounts and expenditures of the sever
al departments and the manner of keep
ing the same; the economy, business
and correctness of such expenditures |;
their conformity with appropriation
laws; the security of the government
against unjust and extravagant de-
mands; retrenchment, the enforcement
Of the payment Of moneys due to the
United States; the economy and ac-
&C antability of the public officers and
the adjustment Of useless Offices Sec
retaries and janitors have been ap-
pointed for these committees, and lux
uriously appointed rooms are provided.
With one or two exceptions, however,
these committees have held no meet
ings since the republican party has
been in power.
The investigation of the expenditures
in the state department followed three
years of the most skillful and ingenius

RICHARD PARR.

The Parr boom for surveyor of the
port of New York to succeed Gen.
James S. Clarkson, will not down. OF
course everyone likes to please the
president and the New York republic
can leaders do not mind his giving
the place to Frederick H. Bugher, a
democrat, whom Mr. Taft likes, and
a member of the police commissioner
staff in New York, but that bad odor
which has arisen from Albany as a
result of the wholesale disclosures
OF corruption among republican lead
ers must be dispelled and it is argued
that nothing will do the trick so eff
fectively as the appointment of Rich
ard Parr. Now this same Richard
Farr would not be a stranger in the
surveyors chair for he has had much
experience as assistant surveyor and
was the man who first uncovered the
sugar frauds that have caused an
other scandal in republican circles
Of course every other past official Of
the treasury department, from secre-
taries down to night watchmen, is now
able to prove conclusively that he de-
tected the trust IN On error of mortal
mind on the Williamsburg docks. anc
