Wants Mothers Club Organized

Editor OF the Echo:--
Why is it our streets are continually
the lettering place for Leavenworth' is
wayward children This is the answer;
because the parents especially the
mothers. are negligent. They trust
their children too much. Oh, mothers,
wake up, find out where your children
go, with whom they associate. God
placed them in your keeping to guard
and care for, yet you blindly 60 on
with your daily life, trusting to Fate,
to guard your boys and girls. There
are girls and boys in this city who have
started on the downward path and a
little effort from the parents, would yet
save them. The mother who allows
her girls to go to these dances where
they dance those indecent dances such
as the "shiyers'' and the Lame Duck"
shows that she is Indifferent to her
daughters welfare.
There is a splendid opening here
for a Mothers Club, and I hope that
the good ladies Of this city will organ
ize one for the salvation OF our children.
A Mother.

Bill of Special Interest to Ranchers

Farmers throughout the state, in fact
every one who happens to own few
mich COWS, and who finds profit and
convenience in dealing with nearby
creamery or condensary, ought to be
interested in House Bill No 1877, which
is hanging fire in the committee on
dairy and live stock. This is an
amendment to the act of 1899, regu-
lating the manufacture of dairy pro-
ducts and the like and seeks to add
two paragraphs, reading of which con-
yeys to the mind unframed to the
technique Of milk evaporation nothing
more than additional wise and paternal
precautions for the preservation Of the
public health. But the technical mind
has penetrated the thin guise Of pater-
nalism. According to men who know
the business, the adoption Of House
1877 will put out Of bushes every small
and medium sized creamery and con-
densary in the state and will force
every owner Of cows to take his milk
to the nearest big establishment or let
it go to waste. The bill is being
boosted by agents Of the three or four
condensed milk concerns Of the state
and is opposed by all others.

Bill to Help Public Utilities

1t is now practically certain that
Senate Bill No. 800, known as the
Taylor public utilities bill, will be sub
mitted to the people at the general
election in 1916. The measure has
passed the senate and similarly favor
able action is expected in the house.
AS passed the bill guarantees to exist
ing public utilities exclusive control Of
their present fields unless competing
company can secure certificate oil
public convenience and necessity from
the public service commission. 1t
also provides for indeterminate fran
chises. Under its provisions munic-
ipality engaging in a public utility is
not compelled to take over property oil
private public utility corporations.

EXPERT TALKS ABOUT
THE HANDLING OF MILK
Says Dairy Men Should Be Very Careful
With their MiIk-ThOaSandS of
Babies Die Every year
By-M. NJ. Carrick, NJ. d.
(Sanitation Expert)

So many dramatic disclosures have
been made in regard to the relation be-
tween dirty milk and the excessive
death rate among infants that farmers
are beginning to realize as never be-
fore, the necessity Of cooperation with
the municipal authorities in their fight
for pure milk.
Milk is certainly the most important
article OF food in the human dietary,
and it is also the most contaminable.
1t is, therefore, up to the farmer to see
that the milk from his dairy gets to the
city babies in as reasonable a state oil
cleanliness as possible. Not that this
is an exclusively baby problem, for all
sorts OF diseases are carried thru milk.
tuberculosis is an example of this class
and number of epidemics of dipther-
ia and scarlet fever have been traced
to the milk supply, but when we pause
to consider that one-fifth of all the ba-
bies born in the United States die in
their infancy from preventable diseases,
and that so per cent Of these are due
to gastro-intestinal diseases, due to inn
proper feeding or impure milk, we nat
urally begin to look into the cause.
realize, of course, that not every
farmer can have his milking done scien-
tifically, but it is possible for him to
produce safe milk for his own use and
that OF the public by very simple and
inexpensive means.
He may not have an elaborate dairy
outfit, but his cattle can be kept clean
and in perfect health with the assis-
lance of veterinary. 1t will be to his
financial interest in the long run. Tar
paper. whitewash and homemade &C.
ment will insure a sanitary stable at
small cost. Then, there should be a
covered milking pail in place Of the
old fashioned wide mouth pail. This
will keep nine tenths Of the dirt out
during milking time. All milk uten-
sils may be kept clean by the use Of a
brush and solution Of soda followed
by final rinsing in scalding water. II
ice is not possible for one farmer, is it
not feasible for several farmers to COM
bine their interest, and secure supply
Of ice at some central place at reason
able cost.
hope the readers Of this paper are
not superior to germs. If you are, send
for some of the government literature
on the subject of the care Of milk. A
request to the Bureau of Agriculture
will bring a number OF bulletins to your
door, much to your enlightenment.
