WARNING TO PARENTS.

1t is risky 10 feed raw milk
and cream 10 children or inva-
lids unless you are sure that at
the farm which produces h
milk the utmost cleanliness 10
observed at all times. particu.
larly during milking. that the
employees are thoroughly healthy
and cleanly persons. that the
cows are free from diseases.
that the water used for rinsing
is OF undoubted purity. and that
the milk is quickly cooled and
kept cold and covered until de-
livered to you.
Raw milk often produces tu-
berculosis, scarlet fever, also
typhoid and other intestinal dis
eases.
We can guard against infec-
ton by properly pastenrizins
milk or by home pasteurization.
Properly pasteurizing milk
land creamy by keeping it at l4o
deg. F. for thirty minutes does
not affect its nutritive value
nor its digestibility.
The. best system is to pasteur-
ize the milk after it has been
bottled.
You can home pasteurize raw
milk by heating it to near boii1
ing, then cool, and keep cold
and covered until used.
Most indigestion in babies is
caused by milk too rich In

the average number of calls is
about 140 per hour running "at
the peak" to 225 or more. The
operator sits facing switchboard
which is covered with numbers

light that flashes on and off as the
cali is completed. When the per-

the number and receives the call.
She then plugs the number called
for and this light burns until the
called person raises his receiver
from the hook. When the receiv-
ers are finally replaced on their
hooks, both lights fash and burn
until, the operator removes the con-
Meeting plugs. To complete one
call means four flashes of light.
AS the average number is 140 an
nour and 225 or more during the
rush hours, the operators eyes are
exposed to from 500 to 1000
flashes of light every hour, result
ing in fatigue to the eyes, to say
nothing of the mental and physical
strain under which the operator
constantly works.. The Bell Sys-
tenn in 1911 spent S720,953 for
rest rooms, and lunch rooms for the
operators and it has secured sutfic-
lent air space and good illumina-
ton, yet, although only young and
healthy girls are selected, the aver
age length of service does not ex-
coed three years. The symptoms of
eye-strain which the girls develop
are headache, dizziness, exhaustion,
nrrVe strain. insomnia, colds, and
SO forth. The two or three short
years of telephone work possible
to the girls, as well as nine-tenths
of all their suffering. is probably
due TO the constant near-range eye
work, without proper protec ion
for the eyes.-Exchangc.

WESTERN PAC|FIC
WILL take OVER
EUREKA 8 PALISADE

Letters received in Carson with
in the last day or two state that IL
is pretty we'll authenticated and
generally believed in Eureka that
the Western Pacific has taken over
the Eureka and Palisade railroad,
and that it will Immediately begin
the rebuilding and widening of the
old narrow gauge.
The old road as it now lands, is
almost unfit for business and for a
ong time its rolling stock has been
so decrepit that it has been unable
to handle the limited amount Of
freight that has been awarded it.
The road is eighty four miles long
and passes through a wonderfully
rich country and run on business
principles, should become great
factor in the upbuilding of Eureka
county.
1t has been slated that if the old
road had been in good condition it
could have been supplied with daily
shipments of ore from the old
mines of Eureka to the amount of
thousand tons a day, but because
Of the management refusing to pre-
pare for the freight it could not be
handled. There are number of
big low grade lead and silver mines
in Eureka that will produce ore of
value of So a ton, and estimates
made of the amount place it at
over million tons. This is all
above the water level; what is be.
low that, and what its value, is a
matter of conjecture, but the old
timers of Eureka candidly believe
that If the mine could be unwater-
ID the ore taken out and shipped
at reasonable rates, Eureka would
again come into the limelight and
reassume the position itsheld back
in the seventies. Appeal.
