Consumers and Clean Milk.

Much has been said about the produc-
tion Of clean milk. The producer has
been accused of placing unclean milk on
the market, OF which offence he may or
may not be guilty.
the number of bacteria found In the milk
as we'll a. the bad odors that sometimes
occur. The neglect of little things while
handling milk may increase the number
of bacteria az we'll as the undesirable
tastes which may develop before the
product reaches the consumer. One OF
the causes OF impure milk is the use OF
unclean utensils.
have seen milk produced on certain
farm for the past three months and have
taken particular notice of the bacteria
found In the milk by bacteriologist,
who tested the milk daily. By slight
precautions and the use Of the closed
top pals, which prevent the dust from
getting into the milk, the bacterial count
has been reduced from 1,0O0, 900 to 1900
per cubic centimeter of milk. The REQ
ord has been reached from little extra
care in cleaning the COWS and utensils
and iu handling the milk,
Now we may look at the other side OF
the question. Does the consumer take
proper care of the milk after 1t is re-
ceived at the home? For instance, when
the milkman arrives at the door, the
milk is often drawn from the tank into
an open pitcher which has not been steri-
lized. The dust from the street readily
comes In contact with the milk as tits
being drawn.
When the milk is received in bottles
and portion of 1t is used, tho remain
der does not always receive proper care.
The bottle Is often left Improperly cork
ed and is set on shelf in the open room
or 10 a refrigerator with other food.
Milk absorbs odors very easily and when
left In this way may become unfit for
use. For this condition of milk, the
producer is often blamed.
Since the producer has obtained such
good results from the use Of closed top
pals and careful handling of milk,
could we not have still better results II
the consumer would share the RESPONSE
bility of keeping milk cleanp-W. D.

Give the Bows a Chance.

On my desk lies wonderful story Of
what an enterprising young boy did
with his herd after he had prevailed on
his father 10 let him try. Too much
conservatism is . positive bar to an in
dustry as we'll as complete destroyer of
progressive ideas. A good many boys
grown on Maine farms would have re-
NAMED there had their fathers been
willing to give their wings chance to ex-
pand. The boys will not work in their
fathers shoes. The wheels OF progress
do not run In the ruts of habit. want
to plead for the boys that they have
chance to break out and test new theo.

and grow their crops by some other
method than has been rigidly followed
for fifty years. Not every boy can 40.
complish what this young man did OF
whom am writing, but the attempt to
do something different will stir ambition
and quicken perception.
Give the boys chance to do some
thing their way. Let them learn by do.

much to man. The farmer who refuses
to let the boy branch out and do things

boy later on, when he needs him most.
There's another case where father
finds 1t impossible to supply the demand
at big prices, for his choice apples grown
on old trees, long neglected and of little
value until the boy caught vision and
his father side.stepped and allowed the
son to work It out. Yearly this orchard

have In mind the case of girl who
at fourteen persuaded her father to let
her have the hens. Yearly she has kept
busy marketing her eggs, broilers and
fowl. She pays all the bills, attends to

always has good balance In the bank
against which to check at pleasure.

Some Dairy Hints.

Cows should be given all the pure
water they can drink, not less than twice
day. It has q decided effect upon the
milk production.
The wise dairyman will keep his best
COWS, and not let the buyer tempt him
even with good price. The better the
COWS the better the profits.
Hot water in the dairy is an essential
that cannot be eliminated. Nothing else
will so effectually cleanse and kill the dis
ease germs. Use cold water first al.
ways.
Boys often chase the cows, not realiz-
ing the great do nger and even cruelty
they cause. They should be taught gen.
tleness toward all animals, and particu-
larly toward horses and cattle.
Some men are cruel enough to kick q
COW In the udder. most dangerous and
painful proceeding. Such man ought
to be kicked into prison for good long
term of hard labor.
Make plans this year to plant a good
supply of pumpkins for they are greatly
relished by the cows. Pumpkins do
we'll when planted among the corn.
The dairy should be flooded with sun
guards against poor products and dis
eases. Such place is much more essi-
ly kept clean.
There are not so many pure-bred bulls
among the farmers as there ought to be
for ideal results. Let there be more in
terest in improving the herd. A good
bull Is the first consideration.
The COWS must be fed regularly In
order for them to do their best work.
We have found regular meals to be ne.
cessity for our own welfare, and the
same applies to animals.
Good cows will do vast amount of
good towards increasing the efficiency Of
the farm, and poor ones will do equally
as much towards keeping things at
standstill. Scrub stock Of any kind is
poor management.
1t pays to buy we'll made silo. A
poor one Is expensive at any price. Ce-
ment for this purpose is worthy of con-
sideration. One cannot afford to make
mistake In silo-building.
No dairyman should be satisfied with
cows that produce much less than 800
pounds of butter fat per year. Use the
Babcock test and dispose OF the poor
stock.
Select breed and stick to 1t. Consld-
erable time Is required to build up Q
good herd, and nothing is made by con.
tinusl changing. In fact, much time
and effort n really lost.
The dairyman who sells cream only
should keep good number of pigs to
consume the skinned milk. They will
mean handsome profit at the end of
the year,

y Right or wrong, in the minds Of

the permanent closing Of the saloons
by the decision of Judge Durham is
considered a business disaster. In
many stores, on the streets, the pre-
ldiction is freely made that Waterloo
has received blow from which she
will stagger into decadence. Stories
are heard Of cancelling Of orders for
improvements and contemplated in

the hundreds Of thousands. The mayor

tol the council that the various de-

half, and men who have been leaders
In the building and boosting OF the
