88348b4v 4AA 4AAve4Ae
The Health and Food Special Train,
carrying educational exhibits from the
dairy and food department and the
state board Of health. will be in y L'Anse
next Monday from 104o .. m. to 1l:40
:. m. The train will be located At the
depot. These exhibits are the result
of an educational propaganda being
carried ont by the two state depart
ments and are free to all.
The Dairy and Food car is Of keen
interest to those interested in the work
Of that important commission, headed
by "Jim Helme."
A very extensive exhibits on weights
and measures is a feature Of the car.
During the past year. inspectors Of the
department have been gathering to-
gether short measures. dented meas
ures, scales that have been tampered
with. drilled weights and many other
ingenious devices to defraud the>pub-
lie, all Of which are worked into an at
tractive exhibit.
The exhibit on fakes frauds, showing
up the many fakes that are being sold
- cure-alls for all diseases, has been
built over and is making even a bigger
hit than II did last year.
Misbranded and mislabeled foods
bring home the fact that some manu-
facturers hoe so close to the line that
they sometimes step over. Specimens
Of advertising and pictures of window
displays are in evidence and show that
they are plainly gotten up to deceive.
An extensive exhibit on tuberculosis
in dairy cattle is another feature which
hrs beln improved upon. Many speci-
mems of meat from tubercular cattle
have been secured and are put up in
glass jars SO that they can be seen at
their worst. This exhibit is in charge
of an expert on tuberculosis in cattle
from the United States department of
agriculture. A lecture on this import
ant topic is given at each stop.
Another feature which is of great in
terest to dairymen is the arrangement
and plans of the model dairy house.
Three room have been partitioned off
in the car. each one to represent room
in small dairy house. Each room is
fully equipped with all the modern
dairy apparatus necessary for the pro-
duction Of clean milk. That much dir
ty milk finds,its way to the market is
graphically illustrated by showing cot
ton pads containing the filth and dirt
taken from this popular beverage.
That mothers milk is the only milk
for infant feeding is tellingly brought
home by new model entitled, "Moth.
er's Milk for Mothers Babes Cow g
Milk for Calves.
A new model illustrating the dam
gers of the common house fly is de-
parture from the many models seen on
this subject and is very ingeniously
gotten up. Placards condemning this
dangerous pest are everywhere in evil
dence.
The telling work OF the psre food
commission has been SO much in evil
dence during the past year that this
car attracts much attention.
Health first" is the slogan adopted
by the state board Of health.
Many new mechanical devices for
demonstrating the ravages Of prevent
able diseases are seen by the state
board Of health's exhibit. Much new
literature calling particular attention
to baby's health and prevention of tu-
berculosis in the way Of attractive and
instructive pamphlets Is distributed at
each stop.
Among the many exhibits the follow
ing deserve special attention.
