Chicago. May 22.-Insurging with an
enthusiasm that may well make the
eastern stand-patters tremble in their
togas in anticipation Of the time when
women vote, suffragists gathered in
this city at the call Of presidents OF
the suffrage associations OF fifteen
western states and organized the Mis-.
sissippi Valley Suffrage conference.
Following which action they sent out
CHEEKY hail to the national suffrage
organization to the effect that 1t is
welcome to keep up with the western
progressives, III it is able, but that the
westerners have no intention of loiter-
ing behind, for their slower sisters of
the Atlantic coast.
Women in six states, all of them
western, will vote for president this
fall, the insurgents pointed out. In
six other western states the granting
Of votes to women will be submitted
to referendum within the next six
months.
These Atates, where active cam
.aigns are now in progress, are Ohio,
Michigan, Kansas, Wisconsin, Oregon
and Nevada.
Among those scheduled to make
speeches before the close of the con-
ference this evening are Mrs. William
Allen White of Emporia, Kan, and
Mrs. w. r. Stubs, wife of the Kan
sas governor. Miss Jane Adams is
also included among the speakers.
New methods worked out in the
heated campaign in Ohio were re-
ported upon by Mrs. Harriet Taylor
Upton of Warren, o., president of the
Ohio Suffrage association. Mrs. Tay-
lor said that during the last week she
had been following Taft and Roosevelt

three or four women working togeth-

and addressing crowds gathered to
hear the presidential aspirants before
and after the candidates arrived.

said. I'VE have been able to keep the

KEEPING BACTERIA

BY Earl Elijah, Iowa State College.
During October, 1911, ten samples
of ice cream were taken from retail
establishments of Dcs Moines and
examined for archaeological contc1t.
The average number OF the btEle
plants found in each cubic cenlimeter
was 19,920,O0O. In terms Of cablc
inches the figure would read 3lG,209,I
600. The average number of bacteria

certainly looks as if someone along
the line has been little careless.
The absolute exclusion of bacteria
from the milk is impossible and so
the problem Of producing good milk
is one of limiting the number or the
prevention of conditions favorable to
their multiplication. Some bacteria,
under favorable conditions. will pro-
duce new generation every fifteen
minutes. 1t has been estimated that
at this rate of increase in one weeks

MUMM'S ASSAILANT YET FREE

French Sportsman Says Woman Fired

Paris, Dec. 16.-The efforts Of the

Barnes or her servants, the only
actual witnesses of the shooting on
Thursday night Of Walter Mumm, a
well known sportsman, thus far have
been fruitless and the affair remains

of the shooting which said that he

making conditions as adverse to bac-
terial growth as it is possible to make
them. Care also must be taken to
prevent the entrance of bacteria into
the milk as it is being drawn.
Plate 1 shows colonies of bacteria
developed from a fifteen minute ex-
posture to air in a dairy barn. Plate
2 is an enlargement Of portion Of
plate 1. These plates clearly show
the Importance of keeping the milk
exposed to the air as little as pos
sible. Quoting from Mr.. B. w. Ham,
mer, dairy Psychologist at Iowa
State College, "A sanitary milk pail
that is pail in which the size of the
opening is considerably reduced as
compared with an ordinary pail, af-
lords an excellent means of reducing
the air contamination as well as the
contamination from the body Of the
animal. On the average sanitary
pail reduces the number of bacteria
in the milk by 50 per cent, while its
use under exceptionally dirty condi-

lions gives still greater reduction.
The use of sanitary milk pals will
give vastly greater reduction in the
number of bacteria in the milk than
an equal amount of money invested in
any other way, and here is undoubt-
eddy the place to begin"
"The various operations about the
stable result IN throwing into the air
more or less dust and dirt which set
ties slowly. Dust and dirt always
mean bacteria. The grooming, feed
ing and bedding of the animals should
be done at times as distant as pos
sible from the milking time. The
grooming should be done at least half
an hour, and preferably longer, be-
fore the milking is begun. The feed
ing, and especially the feeding of hay,
as we'll as the bedding, should be
done after the milking is completed"
Plate shows the contamination of
two hairs of COW. Grooming, of
course, is of vital Importance in re-
moving the loose hairs that might
fall into the milk pail. 1t also helps
in keeping the dirt and manure off
the cows body, manure being. very
common source of milk contamination.
I have seen chunks of dried manure
a half inch in diameter fall into the
milk pail and heard the mixer say,
"Oh. it'll strain out all right" Such
man has whole lot of faith in the
ability of his strainer when the bac-
terra are so small as to require mi
croscope to see a whole colony of
them.
After reasonable care has been ex-
ercised in keeping the bacteria out of
the milk the next problem is to pre-
vent the ones already present from
multiplying. This is done by cooling
the milk az quickly as possible. Quot
ing again from Mr.. Hammer in the
Iowa Agriculturist: milk should be
cooled at once after it is drawn. I'm
less the milk is frozen, it is impos-
sible to get temperature low enough
to entirely prevent bacterial growth.
There is, Of course, reduction in the
rapidity of growth for each substan-
tial decrease in temperature"
