NEW YEAR RESOLVES
Don't Plunge Hastily, but Con-

By BILL VINES.


nEwARE, gentle reader, for Jan,
K uary l approaches. 1t is time
IL for you to begin to pause in
your wild and woolly career for
the nonce and consider wisely and
we'll, the particular style of good reso-
iutions that it is your firm purpose to
out into immediate and drastic effect
on that date. Do not plunge hastily
into the matter, and waste perfect
ly good resolution. From my personal
experience / know that it Is human
weakness, in a moment Of sentimental
and saffron-hued regret, to tie oneself
up 30 tight In an ironbound and Ill
considered New Years resolution
that 1t takes frequently till January Is
to separate oneself from it, and it can
be done then only with considerable
mental anguish and badly lacerated
conscience.

general job-lot assortment of shop

mously by the committee on resolu-
lions at its annual meeting sometime
between the 25th and 31st of Deem
Der. None OF these resolutions has
been used long at time. They are

PROPER ATTENTION
TO DAIRY UTENSILS
All Pals and Cans Should b.
Heavily Timed and Seams
Covered With Solder.
Thy p. RENNETCH West Virginia Ex
pertinent Station.)

Thy P. BENNETCH West Virginia Ex-
pertinent Station.)
One of the most frequent sources OF
contamination in milk lies in the i'm
proper care of utensils All milk pals
and cans should be heavily timed and
all seams covered up with solder 80
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 is is impossi-
BILE to clean them thoroughly. All
dippers, pals. strainers, cans, etc.,
should be rinsed with cold water to
which some washing powder has been
added. In the washing process brush
should be used rather than a cloth,
as the cloth soon absorbs the milk,
and becomes filthy. After washing,
the utensils should be rinsed thorough
ly with steaming hot water. Do not
dry them with a CLOTH instead, in
cline them on a clean shelf over pegs,
so that the water will drain of read
lily. II 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 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 mashed, 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
boiling temperature for some length
Of time. Where only 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.
Every farmers wife knows the
germicidal effects of sunshine, and
takes advantage Of it by placing her
fruit jars where they are exposed to
the sun. The same is true Of milk
vessels, but too often they are placed
in the sun where they are also ex-
posed to dust and flies.

Datisman watching him saw some

Datisman was the only person who
knew Of the find. He knew the money

it belonged to. He determined to ind

CRATE.FED POULTRY
IS MOST DESIRABLE.
Fat Is Distributed Throughout
Tissues of Entire Body, Thus
Making Flesh Tender.

Unfattened chickens are hard and
muscular, especially If they have
been permitted to range at will. Pen
fattened birds-confined in small
quarters and fed heavily on corn
are an improvement, but their fat Is
usually deposited in Jumps in the
abdomen and T.! layers on the mites,
tines, where much of it is wasted in
dressing and cooking
In crate-fed stock the fat is distrib-
uted throughout the tissues of the en-
tire body, thus making the flesh ten
der and sweet. This is the secret OF
the high quality produced by this proc.
ess.
Anyone can successfully fatten
chickens in this manner if he will pay
attention to details. The work may
be conducted in a small way by the
individual producer or consumer, or
on a large scale by the commercial
fattener. No one has monopoly OF
the business; there are opportunities
for all.

ASSIST THOSE AROUND US
New Year Good Time to Remember
the Needy and Struggling Who

All history teaches us that all condi.

must eventually pass away. 1t is the
fervent hope and prayer Of all nations
that peace will come with 1916. Mean
while every individual has his own
plans for the new year and they are
usually generous and kindly in pur-
pose; a universal spirit that explains
the CHEEKY hopes for the new year.
True, it has been with many rather
strenuous and exacting time in plan

Of the surplus of last year, but they
will be none the less appreciated, be-
cause this years benefactions posi-

those of years past. Then, too, there
have been heavy claims on American
generosity for funds with which to
send contributions for the millions of

But on New Years day we should
look more closely at home, and remem-
Der that around US are many that need

to say nothing OF little financial

The New Year has always been a
popular holiday with me, because the

Sunshine Is an amazingly potent
germicide for the farm housekeeper
and in the dairy and stables. The
practice Of exposing cooking and 9th
er utensils used in connection With
food to direct sunlight makes use of
this fact, although comparatively few
appreciate exactly the work done by
the sun in this regard. Probably only
those who are acquainted with tests
which have actually been made real
ize how quickly sunshine kills disease
germs exposed to it. Hence the fol-
lowing tests may be generally instruc-
tive and interesting, says the United
States department Of agriculture news
letter.
A pasty, creamy mass Of tubercu-
lous material, which was proved to
contain uncountable numbers of viru-

strips of muslin. Some Of the sheets
Of glass, pieces Of wool, and strips of

WILL FIGHT RABIES
Government to Combat Spread OF
Disease.
Forest Service and Biological Survey
viii Try to stop Wave Of Infection
of Wild and Domestic Ami.
mails in West.

Washington.--The department oil
the biological survey and the for
est service to combat a serious wave
of rabies infection of wild and domes
tic animals that is in danger OF be
coming widespread in the far West
The fact that the extensive dissem'
ination of the disease is taking place
through the agency of coyotes makes
the situation difficult one to meet.
Outbreaks of rabies among coyotes
have been noted from time to time Tor
several years in parts Of Washington
Oregon and northern Idaho, and the
forest service undertook last year to
aid in bringing the disease under con
troll by employing hunters to make
war on coyotes in the national forests
OF some infected localities. Since,
however. the coyotes breed in the foot
hills and around the outskirts of the
forests, a more comprehensive cam
paign is called for.
The eradication of coyotes In sparse
Nv settled or rough country Is said TO
be an exceedingly difficult task. In
asmuch as these animals are always
a source OF considerable losses to the
live stock industry Of the West, con-
'gregs last year provided q special FUND
,of sl25,000 to be spent by the bio
logical survey for the eradication OF
predatory animals, both in the ma.
tional forests and on the public do
main, and from this fund special al.
lotment has now been made TO pro
vide for fighting the rabies.
The disease first appeared in parts
of eastern Oregon and Washington
and northern Idaho, in region sur
rounded by natural barriers which
tended to confine the outbreak. Do
mestc animals and human beings
were bitten, and a good deal of alarm
was manifested by residents of the
infected districts, many OF whom
feared for the safety of their children
on the roads to and from school. The
disease is now reported as having ex-
tended into northern Nevada and
northern California, whence 1t may
easily be carried far
The forest service, the biological
survey and the state board OF health
are working together to meet the sit
uation I'm California. Modoc and Las
sen counties have been put under quar-
antine by the state board, which has
appointed forest rangers inspectors in
Modoc county. Funds have been pro-
vided by the biological survey for the
employment OF additional men and the
purchase of traps and poison. The
public will be enlisted in the cam.
paign, which will be led by the bio
logical survey officials and the forest
rangers.

then everybody stands up and hOllers

that they don't want the year to
