CARING FOR
DAIRY UTENSILS
Milk Supply Is Often Conan
mated BY Use OF Un-
Clean Vessels
SHOULD USE COVERED PALS
steriIizing All Vessels With Boiling
Water is the Only Sure Way
of Killing Bacteria.

One of the most frequent sources Of
contamination in milk lies in the i'm.
proper care OF utensils All mix
pals and cans should be heavily tin
ned and all seams covered up with SOL
der so that there are no lodging places
for dirt, or crevices that are hard TO
clean. Rusty utensils should never
be used in handling milk since it is iEl-
possible TO clean them thoroughly. All
dippers, pals, strainers, cans, etc,
should be rinsed with cold water. then
washed thoroughly with hot water. to
which some washing powder has been
added. In the washing process a
brush should be used rather than a
cloth, as the cloth soon absorbs the
milk and becomes filthy. After wash.
ing. the utensils should be rinsed
thoroughly with steaming hot water
DO not dry them with a cloth, instead,
incline them on a clean shelf over
pegs, so that the water will drain off
readily. If the utensils are allowed to
drain out of doors the shelf or rack
should be at least four feet from the
ground and in a location where they
are not exposed to dust.
The Calhoun chronicle. [volume] (Grantsville, W. Va.) 1883-1984, 1914-06-18

The Importance OF the sterilizing
process, while we'll understood by most
people, is quite frequently overlooked.
While milk vessels may look perfectly
clean after having been washed, they
may still be contaminated with bac-
terra, These bacteria can be destroyed
only by proper sterilization, such as
is obtained by exposing the vessels to
a boiling temperature for some length
of time, Where only a small amount
of milk is handled steam is very often
not available and in such cAses the
simplest method of sterilizing is to
place the vessels in boiling water for
five minutes.

,sermicidal effects of sunshine and
takes advantage of it by placing her

no exceptions made on account of
the high positions of the con-

quirement of the law governing
foreign marriage was fulfilled.
The minister of state had sug-
gested that the justice go tn the
American Embassy. But the
Embassy is technically United
States territority and so out of
jurisdiction of the magistrate.
The magistrate took his duties
today as a high honor and had
fitted up a room in his residence
with some elaborateness for the
occasion. The house is in the
most aristocratic part of the city.

The Spanish populace takes
the liveliest interest in Colonel
Roosevelt. Wherever he went
today crowds followed and tried
to get glimpse Of him. There
were cheers at several points,
and the American ex-President
responded by taking off his hat
smiling and bowling genially.

1912, for example, the develop
ment of the Blue Greek pool, in
Kanawha county, increased the
total production of that year to
II, 128, 962 barrels. During the
year the pool declined, and so
great a result in 1913 was not to
be expected; nevertheless the
total reached II, 567, 300 barrels,
loss of only 4.63 per cent.
This good record was due to the
extension of the Blue Creek pool,
and chiefly to the increase in
Roane county, where the Berea
Grit and Scaffold Run pools, in
the Spencer district. developed a
product of over 1000 barrels a
day early in the year and increas-
ed as the weather grew better
for drilling. Harrison, Peasants,
Wood, Monongalia, Richie, Gil
mer, Morgan and brook counties
added many gushers yielding
from 200 to 1000 barrels a day.
While no pool equivalent to the
Blue Creek was developed during
the year, drilling W. s more act
i've than ever before owing to the
high prices for oil. The total
value increased 44.67 per cent,
or from $40, 1927, 721 in 1912 to
$28, 1923, 814 in 1913.

ERTILIzING
The ORCHARD
Leaves and Wood Use More
Plant Food Than Does Pro-
duCtion of Fruit
NITRATE FERTILIZER NEEDED
Four important Factors Govern the
Success or Failure of An
Orchard.

Since orchard trees require several
years TO develop before they reach
maturity and even then do not bear
heavy crops every year, thus allowing
years in which they may recuperate
after heavy crop, we are apt to Jump
TO the conclusion that orchard lands
require less fertilizer than other fields
which are used for the production of
Grain and general farm crops. We
should not forget. however, that even
though the tree is not bearing fruit
every year. it is each year producing
a large crop of leaves, the major por-
ton o! which are blown away from
the orchard by the wind. Few
people realize that more plant
FOOD IS used in growing leaves and
wood than in producing fruit, but such
Is the case. AS a matter OF fact, in
peach orchards more plant food enters
into the leaves of the tree during it's
life time than into all the fruit which
ccnes from the tree. consequently the
drain on the land from an orchard is
greater than ordinarily supposed.
The orchard planted on deep, rich.
lOamy soil Will doubtless find all the
plant food it can utilize already pres
ent in the soil. Orchards grown on
thin, shay or sandy soil will not pro-
duce either a maximum yield or a max
Imum growth unless they are artih-
cially fed. 1t is difficult to know just
when an orchard needs more food than
the land supplies, but as a general
proposition, soil that will produce
% 1.
rich enough to produce apples and
peaches without the addition Of any
fertilizer or manure. Soils that need
fertilizer for corn should be fertilized
when planted in orchard. The only
sure way to determine the fertilizer
requirements Of an orchard, is to con
duct small fertilizer test in one cor
nor Of the orchard

the same, except that nitrogen is left
out.
The question at once arises, "Wha-
kind of fertilizers are best adapted to
orchard cOnditions?" The Horticul-
tural Department Of the West Virginia
Agricultural Experiment Station has
been studying the effect of fertilizers
on apples and peaches, and have found
that nitrogen is the one form OF plant
food 70 which the peach tree will re-
spond with increased growth and pro-
duction. On the other hand the appli-
cation Of muriate of potash in quaint.
ties OF three to four pounds per tree
has worked an actual damage Appli.
cations Of acid phosphate have appar-
emily neither benefited nor retarded
the growth and productivity of the
tree. Both potash and phosphorus
have fastened the maturity of the
fruit somewhat, while nitrogen has de-
Eyed it. Nitrogen has produced
larger fruit but less highly colored
than are naturally produced

ginia, fertilizers are probably not need
