W3I. NJ. BREWER RETURNS
 FROM THE PORCUPINE

In an interview with Wm. M. Brewer, mining engineer of victoria he gave the following information to a representative of the Daily Al askam:
 "One of the features that must impress a traveller enroute through the Chilcat and, Klehini valleys, between Haines and Rainy Hollow, are the small but well cul- tiyated ranches where berries and vegetables, especially turnips, ruta- bagas, cabbage, carrots and potatoes produce equally as good yield per acre as any of the middle west states, while the yield of strawber- ries and raspberries, both in quality and quantity cannot be surpassed The fact that as late as the 9th Of September strawberries and rasp- berries could still be picked will be news to residents further south' but such is the truth and the size and flavor compare favorably with the fruit gathered earlier in the season.
 Another feature is the excellent chance for building first class wag- on roads the entire distance of abou 50 miles to connect the coast with the hydraulic propositions on Porcu- pine, Calhoun and Glacier creeks, also with the galena prospects on Salmon and Nugget creeks located about 35 miles from Haines and the copper and galena properties in the Rainy Hollow district, from II to 20 miles from Pleasant Camp on the boundary between the United states and Canada, but unfortunately for the operators in those camps, the Klehini river has been permitted to

sncrOach son the road bed to such an extent that the freighters are compelled to travel along the bed Of the river nearly the entire dis tance from Wells at the mouth of the Klehini to Pleasant Camp, when for an expenditure of about $1,OOO the wagon road could have been kept in good repair and the en- croachments by the river been over come.
 "In consequence of lack of re pairs and upkeep the trayeler to- day has a good road at each end of the journey or from Haines to Wells, 24 miles and from Pleasant Camp to Rainy Hollow, Q distance of 10 miles, but the middle portion, or about 20 miles, is both difficult and dangerous, because of the many crossings necessary to be made over the Klehini, one of the most treacherous glacier rivers in Al aska.
 During the past season the opera tons at the hydraulic camps at Por5upine and Glacier creeks alone have required the continuous employment of one auto truck on the portion of the road where it could be operated besides about six teams, some four and others two horses.

In addition to pip ing during the past summer he hSS built an additional HOO feet of Hume, 20 feet in width to turn the water from the bed of PbrcuPtae creek from point that distance above the old dam, also an R&di- tional length of bed rock dune of about 200 feet as the work o3 pip ing has advanced up the creek.
 "The Glacier creek company has been working a large. gang of RaR On construction work in building fumes, rivetting and laying Dipe. etc, to prepare for piping opera tions next season.
 Tn the Rainy Hollow camp mora development work of 8 systematic character is very necessary. The district offers good opportunities for the prospector as well as the operator, but of course as present. both are handicapped by lack ot transportation. This, would how ever, be overcome at comparatively minimum cost because a railroad with almost water grade could be constructed the entire distance whenever it is demonstrated that the tonnage of ore of commercial value warrants the initial cost"

termination. Dirty separators are, OF
course, the important source of con-
,tamination. 1t is probable that the per-
centage of owners of cream separators
who fail to wash them after each
usage Is growing smaller. For time
there were agents for cream separators
who we're short-sighted enough to at
tempt to sell their machines on the
claim that they did not require wash
ing as often as others. Such advice,
combined with the natural shiftless
ness of the occasional producer, has
caused much bad cream. A cOmpari-
son which might be made for the BEN
eft of the farmer who is reluctant to
devote proper attention to his cream
separator, would be that, inasmuch as
his wife washes the dishes after each
meal, the cream separator should re-
ceve similar treatment. Some cream
users have the misguided i'm
preston that flushing them out with
cold or hot water will remove all dirt.
1t must be made plain to such patrons
that the only way to keep the cream
clean is to take it apart and
wash it thoroughly. A dirty cream
separator will not skim closely, SO the
man who neglects to clean it losses
butter fat and money"

they should be done long enough before
milking to allow the dust and bacteria
to settle out of the atmosphere. If it
is impossible to do this, it PROBABLY Ia
better, under ordinary conditions, to
leave these operations until alcr the
|nilking has been done. The use of a
small top milk pail is extremely eff
ficient in reducing the contamination
from this source and also that from
the tody Of the COW.
Prevalence OF Bacteria.
when milk is collected under clean
ly conditions not more than one
twentieth as many bacteria fall into
it as when the conditions are dirty. A
very little sour milk contains millions
of bacteria.
milk affffords one Of the best foods
for the growth of bacteria. When
fresh, however, it contains substances
whish retard somewhat the develop
n,cnt of bacteria for few hours, il
they are not TOO numerous, but we de
pend upon low temperatures to further
limit changes in it. Just as large
forms of plant life cannot grow in
cold weather, SO also these minute
germ plants are prevented from null
tiplication by cold.
Chances of Contamination.
