Jackson scarcely saw Broadway
when he went out of the gray build

ever trodden Broadway without see

Hello, Broadway" cried a merry
voice from just beyond the curb. 1t
was a blonde voice, and issued from a
natty little motor car with a sedan
chair top. Broadway had bought that
motor car and given it to the blonde

Generous Hospitality.

Calling at a Christian home In ia
pan recently, the lady Of the house
said: Helen is now eighteen. She
was left an orphan at three years OF
age, and / told my husband we would
keep her as long as we could, and
she is here yet" Even this is scarce
ly equal to Turkish hospitality as re-
ported by the Daily Telegraph: When
l asked my friend how long she ex-
pected me to stay, she was surprised
at my question. You need never go
away. There are guests here who
came as l did for a few days, but
they have never gone away at all.

found awaiting him new sheafs OF
bills, none pressing him-mere state
ments. The rumor had not started
that he was not good pay. Broadway
still delighted in him, still endeavored
to induce him to accept its credit. This
gave him new distress; he knew him
self-he knew he would 60 out that
night and run more debts.
Suddenly he knew what to DO. 1t
came to him without an effort OF the
brain. 1t was a tragic inspiration.
Without word to Rankin, stealthily
and secretly, he went forth into the
afternoon ir his smart runabout, still
driven by the taxi-cabman, who now
regarded him with something akin to
worship, and sought gunshop and
chemists
In the former he made purchase OF
large, grim, blued-steel automatic pis'
tol of the largest caliber they had in
stock, and secured one box OF cart
ridges. It seemed waste Of money,
which by rights was definitely tho
property of creditors, to buy SO many
cartridges, for he should need but one!
However, he feared that to ask for one
would pin attention to him and frus,
trate what he had in mind. so he put
the heavy box into his pocket. II
made it sag outrageously. which very
much annoyed him. No man On
Broadway was more careful Of his
clothes. But what. after all, did a
sagged pocket matter now?
At the chemists he secured an ounce
of bichloride of mercury, which hat
been fashionable of late among smar'
suicides. He had no difficulty in oh
tanning it. This eased him and fur

Il seems a matter Of universal desire
that poverty should be abolished. We
should be quite willing to abolish lux

Every person in Fargo should know
more about the milk they are using
how it is cared for. what COWS 1t
comes from and whether they are
healthy or not. We know that there
has been a good deal said in the past
but it is time that we get down TO
brass tacks. Your health is too precious
to risk it on a. sophistry. You should
know that the milk is pure and clean.
That the cows from which 1t comes
are tested every six months for tuber-
culosis, this is very important. II
has been stated recently that the
tuberculosis test is only IS per cent
efficient, but the government bulletin
No. So, Milk in Relation to Public
Health, states that the test is 81 per
cent efficient. H.,
It stands to reason that any article,
especially. milk, having once become
dirty or full Of bacteria (germs) is
hard to clean. Now. in the first place
milk should be cooled as soon as 1t is
taken from the cow, and how many
farmers are there that have a cool
ing plant? 1t is a well known TACT
that bacteria (germs) multiply at q
very rapid rate In warm milk until
cooled. Therefore, milk that Is not
greatly contaminated at the time or
milking, If left stand without cooling
may contain all the way from 500,O0O
to over 1000, 900 bacteria by the time
the animal heat has left it.
In regard to pasteurization, the lat
; est report of the National Commission
on Milk Standards says, that pasteuri-
| cation is necessary as a safeguard OF
| public. health, except for a certain
| quality of FIRST grade milk, which has
| otherwise been protected against in
lection. ;,
Edgewood farm sanitary milk Is
| protected in every way possible
| against infection, coming entirely
from our, own herd of cows.
In the Government Bulletin No. 66
milk lis graded into three classes, class

Facts in Regard
To Sanitary Milk

/, milk containing not more than 49,
900 bacteria per cwt, and should not
be more than twelve hours old when
delivered, class 2, milk containing not
more than 100, 900 bacteria per cwt.,
class 3, milk from diaries which do
not comply with the requirements
specified for classes l and 2 should be
~pasteurized before being sold. and
should be sold under the designation
"pasteurized milk" We are very glad
to say that our milk does not come
under class 3, 1t being as sanitary as
we can possibly make it, Is we are
sparing no expense, time OF labor in
supplying our customers with the best
milk that we can produce.
We want to impress on the mind of
the people Of Fargo the Importance
OF their knowing where their milk
comes from, they should know the
conditions under which it is produced,
how the cows are taken care Of, are
the cows kept clean? and a good many
other things of Importance too numer-
Gus to mention here. We do not be-
lieve, in fact know, that milk collected
here and there from all kinds Of farms
and produced under all sorts Of con-
ditions is sanitary or pure, as the
average farmer, who, only milks a
few cows has not got the facilities
and will not take the time to take
proper care Of his cows and milk. The
city milk inspectors last report shows,
some milk came to the city as high as
1,000,000 and 100000 bacteria per
cwt., and after pasteurization was cut
down to Is high as $4,000.
Why not use Edgewood farm sani-
tary milk. that is only two or three
hours old al the most when it reaches
your grocer? You will know where
your milk Is produced, how it is pro-
duced and under what conditions it
is produced, as we want you to come
out and insepct our plant at any time,
n see for yourself. Start now and
once you use 1T. you will have nothing
else. Edgewocd farm.-Advt
