Women TippIers of Toronto.

The Toronto Globe draws a gloomy
picture of moral conditions in the On
tario metropolis. There's far too much
drinking among the women there, the
Globe finds. 1t wants a thorough in
vestigation of the sales Of the "bottle
shops" Of the city. 'The truth is," says
the Globe, that many of the women of
Toronto, barred from the saloons. have
turned to the liquor store and by that
means supply themselves with spirits
for home consumption on such a scale
as to alarm the officials charged with
the enforcement Of the license laws.
OF what use is it, they ask, to keep no
tells out of the residential quarters with
the object Of preventing the workmen
from spending their earnings In them
when the Ome find a store around
the corner at which they can get all the
liquor they want?"

Cleanliness in
the Dairy.
BY r. G. Jones, Dairyman, Mon.
tana Agricultural College.

+
In recent years we have heard much
agitation in regard to the health OF
the nation, especially a. related to the
food supply. Many health ordinances
have been passed in our cities. Large
sums of money have been expended in
improving water supplies and in per.
fecting systems for the disposal Of
sewage and garbage. National and
state food laws have been enacted,
providing for inspection Of our meat
supply, prohibiting the ~ Of anti.
septics and preservatives in all foods,
and requiring proper labelling Of all
foods. drugs, and drinks.
Dairy products have not escaped
this legislation and it is perfectly
right that they should not for the fol.
lowing reasons:
First-Milk is an ideal food for hu.
a beings and for the lower forms
Of organic life known as bacteria.
Second-Unless one is careful, cor.
tain forms of these bacteria which are
Known to produce disease in human
beings may gain access to the milk.
Third-Milk is more widely con
sumed than any other food, with the
possible exception of bread.
Fourth-Milk forms almost the ex
elusive diet of most infants and many
invalids.
Fifth-Dairy products are consumed
for the most part, in a raw state and
without further preparation than they
receive in the stable or factory.
1t is, therefore, not too much to ask
that the dairyman be as careful ir
the production Of dairy products as The
cook il in the production of pastries.
Milk as it is drawn from the uddel
of a healthy animal is pure and ster
lie, but in handling 1t becomes more
or less contaminated by dirt and bac
terra. Dirt is unappetizing and out o.
place in milk. Bacteria are very close
ly associated with dirt and nearly al
ways gain access with it. While some
dirt car be removed by straining, bac
terra cannot, so that a second strain
ing after a COW puts her foot in the
pail does not repair the damage. Dir
may come from the COW, the air of thu
stable, the utensils, or the clothes

the moisture of the skin from coming

lining should be cut exactly like the

cept on the outside, made by a band Of

This is stitched on n side on the

it's two ends are then brought round
the waist and fastened with a hook
and eye in front. Below the waist the
lining and the satin are something on
the order OF a mans shirt, without full
ness and opened at the sides. This
prevents the danger of the blouse rid
ing up above the skirt.
The blouse in the cut is n Of the
newest models for spring.

HeaIthfuI Laughter.

The habit of laughter is n we'll
worth acquiring. Not the habit OF
silly Sinking or meaningless giggling
over nothing, but the we'll developed
sense Of fun and humor that renders
it easy to find amusement in situations
and circumstances that otherwise
might be mournful, or at least trying,
and which bubbles forth in merry and
genial laughter.
Such habit is not always easy to &C
quire, especially when the natural
taste and temperament lie in other di.
rections, but, once established, it more
than repays the effort Of attainment.
The ready laugher usually is blessed
with good temper, good digestion.
good hold upon life generally, and not
only enriches but prolongs life for
sundry less fortunate fellows. Who
has not known a man or woman whose
hearty, jovial or silvery laughter made
all the world seem better? The good
laugher, other things being equal, may
be set down as a good citizen and g
good friend.

book was printed. The text Is Luther's

any market for dairy products? Could
I sell my dairy animals? Would you
advise the use of pure bred sires and
dams?
Reply: 1t is very difficult to give
advice regarding the method of live
stock breeding or farming without be-
ing well acquainted with the condi-
lions Upon the farm. However, as
nearly as we can tell, we see no rea-
son why good money could not be
made by going into the dairy business.
No doubt there would be a good mar
ket for all of the butter and milk that
could be produced. This question,
however, cannot be answered without
being informed as to the exact market
conditions,
AS to the advice regarding the Sc
lection of animals, we are again some
what skeptical. No doubt our reader
is we'll informed upon the points to
keep in mind in the selection Of dairy
animals. II we were going out to buy
pure bred animals we would secure
only a limited number and see that
each individual was of the best and
that the pedigree traced back to some
noted ancestor. We would not advise
our reader to secure q large number
Of pure bred animals, but would ad-
wise him to secure a pure bred bull
and then, as he had sufficient money,
he might find it profitable to buy
three or four pure bred COWS. He
could use the bull upon these females
and would get some very good calves.
There is always = market for dairy
cattle and we find that the market in
Montana is continually growing. If
the individuals we're OF good type we
see no reason why they would not
bring very good prices. Al stated, we
would not advise the buying of a
large number Of pure bred cows be-
| cause We could get some very good
calves by the use of a pure bred bull
upon grade animals. We would use
the pure bred bull upon these indi.
viduals and sell the calves for breed
ing purposes.
As to the breed of animals that is
adapted to Montana we hesitate upon
saying. The success Of any breeder
will depend upon the man himself. Ii
he has a special preference for the
Jerseys or ~Guernseys, that is The
breed he wants to go into. If oul
reader has a preference for the Jer
sey, no doubt it will pay him to breed
these animals. We do not think il
would be j safe plan, however, to &C
outside of the country and secure ami
mails that are not especially adapted
to this region. If it were possible We
would try to secure the cows and bull
from as near at home as possible.

and hands of the mixer. Bacteria, as
we have said, are very closely associ-
ated with dirt and after once gaining
access the conditions for their growth
are so good that they develop and null
tiply very rapidly.
The bacteria or germs in milk may
be divided into three classes. The
first contains a great many species or
kinds that are perfectly harmless and
produce no change in milk. The Sec
ond includes those which produce fer
mentations like the souring of milk.
The third are those causing diseases
like tuberculosis, typhoid fever, etc.
In the past twenty years W. n
hundred epidemics of disease have
been traced to milk alone. One-third
of all deaths of children are said to
be caused by bowel complaint. The
germs which cause this are often
found in milk. These germs can be
killed by boiling the milk, but this in.
jures the flavor as we'll as the digesti-
bility of the food. For this reason an
ounce of prevention is worth a pound
of cure.
The following are the preventive
measures to use: In the first place,
keep the stable and COWS clean. In
the second place, keep yourself clean,
In the third place, keep all utensils
clean. In the fourth place, keep ev-
erything clean. The first means not
simply scraping out the cutters once
a day, but at least twice a day, and
keeping the rest Of the stable clean
and sweet. It means a thorough
scrubbing and disinfecting of the sta.
BILE once or twice each year. It means
feeding the cows after instead of be-
fore milking. so that the dust will
have time to settle before the next
milking. 1t means currying your cat.
tic daily and wiping their udders and
tanks before milking.
The second preventive measure
means clean clothes and, especially
clean hands. The practice of milking
with wet hands Is to be condemned
for II there is any dirt on either the
udder or the hands 1t is sure to be
washed into the milk.
The third factor In keeping milk
pure means not simply rinsing your
pals In the watering trough, but calls
for a thorough washing and scaldine
of them. The best practice is to rinse
the utensils first in lukewarm water
then wash them in hot water contain
ing some weak alkaM, rinse and scald
thoroughly with live steam or scald
ing water, and finally, set in the sur
to dry, not, however, where the chick
ems and turkeys can roost on them.

Reply: Our reader has what might
be called a gold mine. The Montana
climate is especially we'll adapted to
the production Of high grade draft ami
mails. Then, too. We find that there
is always a market for these animals.
BY all leans we would advise the use
Of a pure bred and we'll bred Per-
cheron stallion. We would secure a
stallion that has a long line of noted
ancestors and in addition to this we

deep body and we'll placed and strong
sound legs. The animal should be
able to travel we'll and he should have
a large amount Of vigor and stamina.
We would use this stallion upon our
grade mares and train the horses for
the market. II we desired to increase
our herd we could saw some of the
mare colts and upon these mares
breed another Percheron stallion. BY
the continued use of a pure bred draft
animal we would be able to secure, in
a very short time, a very high bred
herd. We would not, however, be able
to cur a pure bred herd, because
pure bred animals are not made by
breeding a pure bred sire upon grade
animals.
