HANDLING AND CARE OF MILK
1t is Well Known That Ce.
Milk; Every Effort Should b.

Preventing changes in milk IS a
question of preventing the introduc-
ton Of bacteria into milk and of
checking the growth or destroying
them when they are present The pro-
duction of milk reasonably free from
bacteria is a simple question of clean
Illness.
There are many simple rules and
methods for handling milk. requiring
little extra labor and no added expense
which will materially increase the
healthfulness and keeping quality Of
the product. Any precaution that re-
duces the dust in the stable at milk
ing time reduces the initial number Of
bacteria in the milk. The cows should
not be fed before milking. Cobwc bs
and other dirt can be easily removed
from the ceiling The stable floor
should be SO arranged that the dirt
on the uanks and udders Of the cows
willie be reduced to a minimum The
daily use OF a brush will add greatly
to the efficiency Of these precautions.
Care should be taken that the COWS do
not have to wade through filth in the
barnyard.
Even with the greatest precaution
some bacteria get into the milk. and
further precautions must be taken to
prevent their undue multiplication.
The practical way to accomplish this
is by control of the temperature of the
ural law governing the limits and
rapidity Of growth of bacteria at diff
ferent temperatures. The milk should
be cooled at once to temperature as
near the freezing point as circum-
stances will permit.
On farms where water is supplied
by windmill it is very easy to arrange
the water trough SO that the water
flows from the pump through trough
or tank in which the cans Of milk ma =
be set to cool. This is a slow method,
but much better than nothing.
1t is not sufficient merely to cool the
fresh milk. To insure good results
it must be kept cold until used The
housekeeper who leaves her bottles Of
milk in the sun or standing in u warm
kitchen should not blame the milk
man for sour milk.
Chemicals having an injurious effect
on bacteria are sometimes used to re-
tard tn egrowth Of bacteria in milk
and thus p-olong the time within
which it may be sold This practice
is universally condemned by public
opinion.
Heat Is frequently applied to milk
to destroy a part or all OF the bac-
terra. Complete destruction of all
bacteria in any substance is steriliza-
ton; pasteurization is a term used to
designate process by which milk or
other fluids are heated to destroy part,
but not all. Of the bacteria. Pasteuri-
ZatiOn may be continuous or ''inter-
mittent": in the first method the
milk flows in continuous stream
through the pasteurizer. where it is
heated to q required temperature by
steam or hot water; in the second
way, but is held at the pasteurizing
temperature for some time.
The temperature for pasteurizing
varies greatly. As a general rule, to
insure good results. the temperature
must be increased as length Of expos
ure is decreased. When the milk IS
held for twenty to thirty minutes the
terlpereture may De varied from 40
degrees 10 $50 degrees +. The form

E PRODUCTION OF OATS
Crop in the United States Has Increased Twelve Per
Cent During the Past Five Years
- ByC W. WARBURTON

f&x oat crop ranks fifth in value
81 the farm crops OF the United
being exceeded by corn, cot
wheat and hay. It Is third
Eng the cereals, being exceeded
by corn and wheat The acreage
foted to oats is slightly larger than
ION acreage and is much smaller
& In that of the other crops men
6ned. Last years oat crop, slight
III over 1,0OO,0o0,OOO bushels, was
'kthe wheat crop of that year, but the
8value was only s4O8,000,o0O. as COM
#pared with $730,OO0,OO0. for wheat.
The corn crop was valued at $l.b5O,-
100000, or more than four times as
#much as theOat crop. The farm
ssyalue OF all cereals for last year was
ESTIMATED at s3,00O,OOO.0O0, Of which
amount the oat crop represented
about 1 : per cent.
The average production of oats in
the United States for the last ten
! years was 869,954,ooO bushels. pro-
Z
crop for the same period was 2,453,-
1890 bushels, grown on 95,O2S,O0
acres and the wheat crop 659, 500, 900
bushels, produced on AS, 5000 acres
The five States leading in the pro-
duction of oats for the ten-ycar- pc
riod were Illinois. Iowa, Wisconsin,
Minnesota and Nebraska. The da-
gram shows the proportion of the total
crop Of the United States grown in
each of the States producing more
than 100000 bushels. The sixteen
States shown grew nearly 80 per cnt
of the total crop. Illinois and Iowa
each produced nearly IA per cent,
while approximately 8, s, and 6 per
cent were produced in Wisconsin,
Minnesota and Nebraska, respectively.
In acreage devoted to oats Iowa
slightly exceeds Illinois. Wisconsin.
Minnesota and Nebraska follow In the
order named.
The world production of oats in
bushels is greater than that Of either
corn or wheat, but as it's weight per
bushel is much less. the total pro-
duction in pounds Is smaller than
that Of either of those crops. The av-
erage annual world production OF oats
for the past five years was S,694.7O2.-
900 bushels; Of corn, 3,443,169, 900
bushels: and of wheat, $3.50, 900
busels. The actual world production
Of all these crops. particularly OF oats
and wheat, is considerably larger than
these figures, no statistics being avail
able for South America and for a
large part Of both Asia and Africa.
The production Of oats in Africa is
small, but in South America and IL,
some portions Of Asia for winch no
figures are published it is considera-
BILE. The 1909 crop Of the world was
about one-ffth larger than that of
any ofthe previous four years, reach
ing total Of 1926, ,S65.000 bushels.
For the five years the average Euro
pean production of oats was 2393.-
705, 900 bushels, or practically two
thirds of the crop of the world. Rus
sia, Germany, France and Austria
Hungary are the leading European
countries in the production Of oats.
North America produced 1,172,124,OOo
bushels, nearly four-fifths of which
were produced In the Un:.ed States
For 1910, the fifth crop in the
United States. Ia point Of value is oats

May Join lnsurrectors

w. +. Claycomb was in Marshall
on business Monday and told a
Joke on his wife. She had never
fired a gun, having a foolish sem
timent like most women that IL
might make a noise. One day
last week he came home and laid
his gun down when Mrs. Clay
comb picked it up and was study
ing IL intently when a big load
OF shot went tearing through the
screen door, accompanied by the
usual noise. Mrs. Clacyomb drop
ped the gun, being startled, and
said, ooh, is it loaded9" On being
assured that il certainly isn't she
continued her Investigations and
is so taken with il that Mr.. Clay
comb now fears his wife will leave
him to- join the Insurrectos and
have some real sport with real
gun.

journalism Week
at State University
Program of Unusual In.
terest April II to FL.

1t Is very difficult matter to
give an account of Journalism
Week at Columbia in manner
which will interest most OF our
30 We will touch It very lightly.
The School OF Journalism was
organized in 1908. In it's first year
s5 students took one or more
courses in Journalism; in the sec
opd year, 1i6; and in it's present,
or third, year there are enrolled,
in one or more courses, 158 stu-
dents. Twenty states and ,wo
foreign countries are represented.
The School of journalism Ia CO.
ordinate with the Schools of Law,
Medicine, Education, Engineering
and Agriculture. II offers one
degree, Bachelor OF Science In
Journalism. Two years OF college
work are required for entrance
and the full course, leading to a
degree, requires three years.
While the course is OF a literary
nature, IL equips the student for
newspaper work on the dailies md
larger weeklles. To conduct
small weekly a practical knowled-
ge OF the printing business is es-
sential.
Walter Williams, dean OF the
School OF Journalism. IL an able
and experienced newspaper man,
well known as the former editor
OF the Columbia Herald. \
The program consisted OF Gd-
dresses by the country's leading
editors, among whom were b. B.
Herbert OF Chicago, first president
OF the National Editorial Associa-
ton; Oswald Willard, OF the New
York Evening Post; II. II. Herr,
OF the Kansas City Post; Chas. ii.
Grasty, Baltimore Sun; Senator
Lafayette Young, DesMo.nes, Iowa
Capital; Casper Yost, Sunday
Globe-Democrat; Z. @. Lewis, st.
Louis Star; Geo. b. Longan, Kan
sas City Star, and many other
prominent writer's. Also talks by
local newspaper men on local con-
ditions. Most OF the talks were
fine.
Besides this there were special
social features every day - auto
rides, receptions, dinners, etc.
Columbia Is growing rapidly and
is n clean and prosperous city.
It's business men are enterpris-
ing and altogether the states seat
OF learning Is well located. There
are over 5000 students enrolled at
present. Since the establishment
the school In 1sio II has grown
until II now has twenty-eight sub
stantial buildings.
The editors were treated royalty
and will all be glad for another
opportunity to visit that beauti-
ful city.

Severely Injured.

Charlie Maddox, son of Chief of
Police, Ed Maddox, was thrown
from his pony in front of the
postoffice Tuesday evening and
quite badly hurt. His grandfather
J. ID. Billingsley, telephoned us
yesterday that they feared the
boy is in a serious condition from
internal injuries but the extent
or seriousness Is hard to tell at
present.

Stock Market
National Stock Yards, Ill.

National Stock Yards, ILL.,,
April 26, 1911.
With liberal receipts OF cattle at
all the markets this week, We had
a very poor demand and our mar
ket Is showing a decline OF 25 to
ioc a cwt. on good beef cattle.
Yearling steers and heifers have
suffered a severe decline OF fully
25 to 35c a cwt. Cow market also
in bad shape and about 25c lower
for the week.
Our hog receipts so far this week
have been light compared with
last and our market Is In much
better shape than II has been for
several months and the range in
prices is very small. Choice lights
and mixed hogs are selling closer
TO the top than they have for
the past ten days. Choice heavies
and butcher hogs are selling from
S6.15 to $500, while prime heavies
are selling from $6.o5 to $6.io. Very
few hogs selling below the latter
price. Look for but little change
in prices the rest of this month.
