GIVE Us SAFE MILK.

In the discussion that is now going
on concerning ChicagO's milk supply
both sides are agreed on three very
important propositions. These are:
l. Milk should be as clean as pos
sible.
2. It must be kept clean at all
times.
3. It should be free from disease
producing germs.
4. That the supply of milk should
be big enough 50 that everybody de-
string to use milk may be able to OBJ
tain it at q reasonable price.
The ordinance that the Health De-
partment has advocated provides that
all milk sold shall be reasonably clean;
that it shall be kept at q temperature
not higher than go degrees F. or cold
er than this if possible. 1t provides
for the establishment Of two grades
Of milk, both Of which must be free
from disease producing germs. The
first grade is called inspected milk -
This milk shall come from cows that
are aSeertained to be free from tuber-
eulosis and other diseases. A great
many milk producers win not be able
to meet these requirements for the rea-
son that their cows have not been
tubereulin tested. A great many of
the farmers too, cannot be taught, in
q short time at least, to produce milk
that win meet the requirements of in
spected milk.
Because this is true the Health De
partment ordinance provides for the
second grade Of milk to be known as
"pasteurized milk" This is a milk
heated sufficiently to kin disease germs,
which means that by this, diseased
milk that would not pass as inspected
milk can be made safe and wholesome.
The ordinance also requires that the
heating or pasteuriEing Of this class
OF milk shah be done under strict su-
Pervision Of the Department Of Health,
and the finished product placed on the
market for consumers, clean and free
from dirt and disease germs.

THE CHICAGO coLoRED BUSINESS
MEMS STATE STREET FAIR AND
CARNIVAL.
Programme for the 1st Week.

The Grand August Fair and Car.
niva to be given by the Chicago
Colored Business Men, is now an as.
sured fact. State Street is q blaze Of
light, the electricians have accom-
Plished their work, the stores are dec
GRATED, and tonight the greatest in
dustry in the annals Of the Race his.
tory in this city win be launched. II
must be said to the diseredit of a few
that this magnificent enterprise has
been fought from the start, but to the
city officials too much praise cannot be
given by recognizing in those who tried
vainly to east cloud upon the move
ment, to see petty jealousy or q rule
or ruin policy.
Never before in the memory of man
have there been put before the people,
by our Race, such business tact and
its work shall and viii be appreciated
in future years. The Carnival viii
show to the City Of Chicago and the
world at large that the Race, here at
least, can do something and win not
stand and let small pebbles on the
beach stop them In launching an in
dustrial ship.
The elements that 60 to make up
progressive men are not found, bought
or accidents, but watered by q mag
netie and contemplated brain. Selfish
imagination never did nor never win
produce men. Il cannot help the Race
or our city. This city needs men of
action, that in part at least VIII lose
sight Of self and be broad and liberal.
There should be no fear for the Race
in such stupendOus affair as the Com
mittee Of this Carnival Is displaying,
for it give new life and inspire rs
on to lOftier and nobler pursuits. The
following is the programme for the
week:

MRS. H. A. FERGUSON
ANSWERS LAST CALL
Death Came at Tempe, Arizona, to
Which Place She Went for
Benefit of Health.


guson at that place at 11:45 Mon
day night, January ID, 1912, death
being caused by that dread disease
consumption, from which Mrs.
Ferguson had been a sufferer for
several years. Mrs. Ferguson went
to Hot Springs, Arkansas, early
last October in company with Mrs.
+. NJ. Boyd to spend the winter
months, she having spent the past
three winters at that place for the
benefit of her health. For several
weeks she has BEEN failing quite
rapidly, and just a week before her
death Mr.. Ferguson took her to
Arizona in the hopes that the high
altitude and mild climate of that
region would afford the desired re-
lief. The journey was a long one,
and owing to her frail physical
condition was too much for her to
stand and the end came peacefully
Monday night in the presence of
her husband and little daughter
Mildred.
Amanda Johnson was born in
Altoona, ILL.,, being about 81 years
of age at the time of her death.
She grew to young womanhood IN
Altoona and was united in marriage
to Mr.. Ferguson at that place four
teen or fifteen years ago. Two
children were born to them, a baby
daughter who died in infancy, and
Mildred, II years Of age. Besides
her husband and daughter, the de-
ceased leaves two other immediate
relatives to mourn her lOss-one
brother and one sister-Mrs. Mary
Johnson, of Clark, s. d., and Ed.
Johnson, of Altoona, Ill.
Mrs. Ferguson's entire life was
spent in Altoona, until their remov-
al to MObridge four years ago the
coming spring. She was always
an active worker in religious and
social affairs, both at her former
home and since her remOva. to this
city. The first severe cold, from
which she never fully recovered,
was contracted while drilling some
children for a Christmas entertain
ment in Altoona several years ago.
She will be greatly missed by her
friends and associates in this city,
where she has ALWAYS taken untir-
ing activity in social affairs and
church work, and her absence will
be keenly felt.
Burial took place at Tempe, it
being Mrs. Ferguson's request
that on account of the long dis
lance to Altoona or MObridge, that
her remains be laid to rest at that
place.
The death OF Mrs. Ferguson
while just in the prime OF life is
indeed a sad blow to her husband
and little daughter of such tender
years, to whom the care and affec-
ton of a kind and loving mother
means SO much. The entire city
extends it's heartfelt sympathy to
the sorrOwing husband and daugl-
ter in this hour of sad bereave-
ment-the loss of their loving wi e
and mother.
