Your mkman's milk isn't sterile. There are
millions of germs in each drop. Sickness among
children, in very large part is caused by these
germs in milk.
You know that. And you know the tendency
toward pasteurized milk. That's the only real
protection.

are hundreds of homes right around you who use
nothing but Van Camps.
Let US show what they gain, and how much you

The Farm Of the Future.

Under the caption Of "The Pass
ing of the Man With the Hoe" Ed
ward A. Rumeley discourses In the
worlds Work for Augus on the
wonderful changes in farm work
which is being effected with modern
machinery. He makes the stat 'n,ent
that to plow Eve square miles the
farmer walks the distance arour J
the world plodding toll to be
ended by machines that will use iae
power stored in one acre of potatoes
plow 200 acres. He
makes this prophecy Of the futuce 4;
butter manufacturing and the worh
Of the farm household, which Is, to
say the least, interesting to contem-
plate:
''HThe farmers wife will need but
to turn wheel, throw switch,
twist stop-cock and be saved her
hardest work. Butter will again be
made on the farm and not In the fac
tory. The motor will run the cream
separator and churn and dispense
with the labor of the milk cellar ana
its endless array oflpans and crooks
to be washed. 1t will give new speed
to her sewing machine. On Wednes-
day, "sweeping day." it will save her
health and strength with a vacuum
cleaner. 1T will run her washing
machine and mangle. Through a
dynamo, in the electric fan and fat
iron, it will bring her blessed relief
from the fiery heat Of the range on
ironing day. 1t will be a ready help
er in the kitchen. All this takes no
account of the promise Of new inven-
tions." f
There is no limit almost to the
changes in the labor and lie Of the
farm that could be made If only cleo
tricity could be used as a power to an
economic advantage. # the alcohol
that can be extracted from one acre
Of potatoes could be used in gas
engine to run an electric: dynamo in
connection with a storage battery,
who shall say what new labor saving
.methows will not soon follow? It
would seem as If the Injunction
Moses gave the children of Israel to
.s'stand still and see the Salvation of
the Lord" would at last be applica-
Bile to American farm life in the near
future. ~
Meantime the farmer needs to con-
slider that his boy must have diff
fereDt education than the father pos
sessed to fit him for these swiftly
coming changes. Brain work more
than hand work is crowding itself
upon the attention Of the farmer
everyday. He must know something
Of the scientific side of his business
If he is to maize a profitable success
at 1t in the future.

ness to contribute five thousand dol

of good, substantial farmers who are

can easily be induced to settle IN
South Carolina if made acquainted
with the advantages offered by this
State. The railroads should be met
halfway by the general assembly

Hns Faith in Cook.

Admiral Schley, who commanded
the American: fleet that demolished
the Spanish fleet at Santiago, Cuba,
during the Spanish war, recently
wrote Dr. Cook the following letter:
Dear DR.. Cook: I thank you
very much for your kind letter.
and I would assure you that
have never varied in the belief
that you and, Civil Engineer Peary
reached the pole. After reading
the published accounts daily and
critically of both claimants, / was
forced to the conclusion from their
striking similarity that each of you
was the eye witness of the Others
success. Without collusion 1t
would have been impossible, to
have written accounts SO similar,
and yet in view of the ungracious
CONTROVERSY that has occurred
since, that view would be i1npossi-
bic to imagine. While / have
never believed that either Of you
got within pin point Of the pole,
/ I have steadfastly held that both
got as near the goal as was pos
sible to ascertain considering the
imperfections of the instruments
used and personal errors of indi-
yiduals under circumstances so ad-
verse to absolute accuracy. Again
/ have been broad enough in my
views to believe that there was
room enough at the pole for two;
and never narrow enough to be-
lieye that only one man got there.
I believe that both are entitled to
the honor Of the achievement.
