Judging from the description OF all
conditions, Prof. Ridgway is Of the
opinion that the trouble comes from
bacterial infection after the milk Is
produced.
Statistics show there Is only one
case that is exactly parallel to this,
before in this country. That one &C.
CURED in Iowa, and was found in a
creamery by Prof Echles, now of
Missouri. 1t was caused by several
types of undesirable bacteria getting
into the milk after 1t was produced.
Prof. Ridgway advises that the bac.
terra which causes this trouble can be
easily killed by heating the milk to
a temperature of 10 degrees Fahren-
heit for thirty minutes. However, the
trouble can be overcome in the first
instance by removing the bacteria. All
utensils coming in contact with the
milk should be sterilized by boiling
and the place where the milk is kept
thoroughly cleaned by spraying with
lime water. Milk is very susceptible
to infection and only to the most
scrupulously clean places and clean
vessels should be used for milk.

PROFESSOR R|DGWAY
ON MILK TROUBLE
Describes a Very Common Complaint
and Tells How to Rem
edy(It.

]. w. Ridgway, professor of dairy
husbandry of A. & M. College, has had
three letters in the past ten days that
tells Of rare occasions Of milk infec.

The writer's of each Of the letters
state that they are milking Jersey
cows, apparently in the best of health,
and producing a good quantity of milk
which appeared when first produced
to be perfectly normal. After stand
ing for twenty-four to thirty-six hours
the milk became very offensive and
the butter made from it had very
disagreeable taste and odor, so much
so that it was impossible to eat it.

ICE EIeHTY-oNE DAYS.

The elementary science class of the
Bolton Academy has, during the past
winter, been keeping a record of the
prevailing temperature and other
weather conditions.
A review of these records made by
a member of the class showed that
there was ice in Bolton on eighty-one
days. That is. little more than two
thirds of the days of the winter had a
temperature below the freezing point
for at least part of the day.
The maximum temperature was 81
degrees; the minimum 4 degrees
above zero.

According to Justice Bell, the

Neither the bride nor bridegroom
would acknowledge that it was a leap

deny it. Stevenson said that after
the first meeting Mrs. Philpot rode in

Justice Bell said that when Mrs.
Philpot handed Stevenson the two

HAVE FAITH IN YOUR TOWN
BY L. NJ. HEWITT.


In order to better illustrate just
what | mean by the caption, am
going to give word picture of what
was witness to few days ago. A
clerk in one of our large stores was
waiting upon customer, and there
was a beautiful silk pattern on the
counter that the customer was exam
lining One of the prominent ladies of
the city came up, examined the silk,
and as its beauty attracted her, she
gave the piece very critical examina-
ton, asked the price, and when told
she said: 81 am so sorry that i did
not know that / could get this from
you. have just received pattern
from Dallas, and / paid more for it,
but l do not like it as well as / do
this"
| began a little quiet investigation
and found that the instance cited is
not an isolated case. The human
makeup has at least one great re.
deeming feature-its invariable adj
miration of fair play. Now, ! want
each reader to do little serious think
ing. Ask yourself who it is that daily
responds to your call upon some sub
scription list? Who is first to head
the list for a public improvement
fund? Who makes it possible for the
land owner in Bryan to command
rental incomes equivalent to any So
600 population city in Texas? And
your answer, without moments hes
itation, is The merchant" Who
makes it possible for the churches of
Bryan to pay their pastors salaries
commensurate with the churches in
the large cities? You look over the
church roll, and answer: "The mer-
chant" You say. "Our enterprising
merchants place Bryan in the fore
front as a business center" And as
you say it your minds eye travels
down Main street and views with pride
the beautiful store windows which
have been created in the brain of the
ever progressive business men, and by
their direction made part of the civic
display of this fast-marching trade
gathering metropolis of Central Texas,
For whom have the merchants done
all this? For your particular comfort
and benefit. Now, after you have run
this through your mind, ask yourself
if it is fair play for you to patronize
the Dallas merchant, just for the
pomp and glory of saying that This
dress came from Dallas Did you
ever stop to think that the Dallas mer-
chant and the Bryan merchant both
received the goods from the same
mill at Fall River, or from the same
importer in New York. and that they
lay side by side until being packed for

ference is that in buying from Dallas
you have helped support Dallas in

that he had companions

dignity and manner of his
exalted position,
No man lives true life unless he pos
sesses happy homeland what is any
home without harmonizing furniture!
Picture in your mind that home where
the tables, chairs and beds are shoddy.
1t destroys the very ideal of domestic
bliss, happiness and pleasure. No, the
true home must have beautiful furniture
not pretentious furniture. necessarily,
but chairs, tables, settees, beds, bullets,
chiffoniers, that have beauty in simple,
graceful lines; that have it in rugged,
sturdy exteriors; that have il in massive,
knock defying countenances. Furniture
of such characteristics is the kind that
makes home place of everlasting
bliss. 1t is everlasting furniture, made of
genuine, honest wood.
This store calls attention, during the
ebbing hours of this greatest of January
sales, to the good-to-live-with furniture
that is presented here at marvelously
low prices. 1t is economical furniture,
for il is made of brains as well as of
wood. 1t is built up from true wood of
the forest, so il will last not only for
months but for years. 1t goes right from
the forest to the fireside to become as
much a part of that home as the chill
dren. II is not only furniture of this gen.
Grafton, but also furniture of the next
generation. That is the reason it is &C.
onomy furniture; it lasts so long that it
saves money for home-lovcrs, keeping
them from buying more furniture to take
its place in the near future,
Another point to be remembered
about Miller, Stewart & Beaton furniture
is that il is not simply furniture. The
modern ideal furniture is not "just
furniture" designers tell us; it is more
good, honest furniture, patterned for
beauty, grace, service and harmony. All
tables are tables, but not all tables ans
wer the ideal of this age A table TO be
satisfactory to the modern American
home must possess the qualities that will
permit it to harmonize with the general
scheme of furnishings in addition TO be-
ing of service for the uses Of the dining
room, parlor or sitting room. The fuTni
ture here is the kind that will grace the
rooms of the best homes in Omaha, meet
ing with the exacting requirement of
the American ideal.
Those of you who have regarded
furniture as just wood, should come here
during the closing days of this sale and
walk through the aisles of this furniture
world, viewing the beauties, and grasp.
ing the new thoughts contained in the
modern ideal furniture. You will read
lily see what difference there is in
furniture--what truly good wood com
bined with thinking brains can produce
for comfort, happiness and bliss in the
American home.
