a large number being out in the hills

~ .nx;ety that has been expressed
several quarters in regard to the
49,. mon human health of the pres
outbreak of the foot-and-mouth
;..ase is regarded by government au-
titles as somewhat exaggerated. The
common fear is that the milk sup
~ might become contaminated, but in
NV of the precautions that the local
..hor;t;es in the infected areas are
,.rv generally taking, these is compare
;,slv little danger of this. Milk from
.saeted farms is not permitted to be
AHMED at all. The only danger is,
therefore. that before the disease has
.n;fested itself some infected milk
,;rbt reach the market. For this rea-
nm experts in the department recon-
and pasteurization. As a matter of
fact however, pasteurization is recon-
nended by the department anyway for
an milk that is not very high grade
and from tuberculin-tested cows.
Il has been demonstrated by expert
ments which has been made in Denmark
and Germany that pasteurization will
.arve as a safeguard against contagion
from the foot and mouth disease just as
readily as it does against typhoid fever,
INT in any event it must be thoroughly
|done-the milk must be heated to 145
degrees F. and held at this tempera-
|ture for 30 minutes.
In this country the foot-and-mouth
disease has been so rare that there are
few recorded cases of its transmission
to human beings. In 1902 a few cases
we're reported in New En- gland and in
|l9OS in few instances eruptions were
found in the mouths of children, which
were believed to have been caused by
contaminated milk. In both of these
outbreaks the sale of milk was stopped
Is soon as the disease was found among
the cattle. As long therefore as the
disease can be confined by rigid
quarantine to certain specified areas
the danger from this source is very
small. Should the pestilence spread
al over the country and become as
general as it has been at various times
in large ereaa in Europe, the problem
would become more serious. Under any
circumstances, however, pasteurization
would be an efficient remedy. Where
pasteurizatfon is not possible and
where there is any reason to suspect
that the disease may exist the precau-
ton Of boiling milk might be advisable.

form Of the disease lose practically all

Examples Of Humor That Raised Many Laughs When Our
Crandfathers Marveled at Overspeed of Locomotives
Fossil Remains of the Station Lunch Counter Joke

"A correspondent who lately INDUCED
In chase after "A locomotive declares 1t

Read his account:
Rushing on the platform saw my
train moving Off gradually with about
seventy-five yards the start. 1 have

depot a thought came into my head
that 1t might run off the track i'm going
| around the curve at that rate of speed,
and I am afraid rather encouraged
the idea"
our ancestors were great on that
form of humor known as the conun-
drum. Here is conundrum that was
originated when locomotives were still
| a novelty:
why is fine woman like a locomo-
| tive? Because she draws train after
her scatters the sparks and transports
| the males"
Here is still another locomotive joke
of the vintage of 1855.
THE New Haven Register saws that
| George Bromley of Preston was sitting
| ON the track of the New London road
when the train came along and pitched
him head over heels into the bushes
The train was stopped and backed to
| pick up the body, when Bromley
coolly informed the conductor as he
brushed the dirt from his coat sleeves
that If he had damaged the engine in
any way he was ready To settle for it,
and walked off home"
From the earliest times he ability to
, defraud the railroad out of a fare has
been regarded as a manifestation of
humor. In the records that have been
| preserved no anecdotes are 50 numerous
none are related with so much gusto as
those which describe the shrewdness OF
the hero in getting a ride for nothing
The following tale of the huopskirt era
is taken from the railway anecdote book
1t is entitled "Nalue of Crinolines.'
THE Schenectady Star tells the fol-
lowing good joke which was perpe-
| trdleu between l t!Ca ana lnat city upon
one of the conductors of the Central
road. \ lad about II years Of age got
on board the train at Utica and being
in something of quandary as to how
he should pay his fare he was kindly Of
fered the protection of the crinoline OF
one of the lady passengers.
The offer was accepted, and in a
very short space of time the youngster
was duly seated on the bottom of the
car between two seats completely COW
cred with skirts. The conductor passed
through the car without observing the
free passenger, and the little fellow has

heights with this joke, for the material
Is refractory, but it is a useful general
utility joke and has seen hard service.
As this joke is no longer to be found in
contemporary literature, the following
example from the arkansas TrdreiCr
may be worth quoting for its historical
value. 1t Is entitled Classical EduCa-
ion"
DO you no; think that American in
stitutions are progressive?' inquired "A
Boston girl of an eminent English tour
lst on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
"'Indeed | do was the reply The
classical education of even your railroad
brakemen makes them far superior to
the common guards of our English sys-
tenn
"'What do you mean by the classical
education of our brakemen?' inquired
| the Boston girl with no small show of
surprise.
| Why, notice they open the car door
and call out names of stations in an un-
| known tongue. ! am familiar with
seven distinct languages, but your
American brakemen are gulf of learn
| ing compared to our most eminent
| scholars. Their salaries must be tnor-
| nous and their erudition vast and UNI
| fathomable.'
Much has been done with that form
| of the railroad joke which treats of III,
| Englishman's lack of familiarity with
| the American sleeping car. 1t Is a sub
| ject which affords the jokesmith suf
fcient latitude to do himself credit
