HOW SHALL MILK BE RATED |?

The quality of designated milk supply is one of the numerous subjects which a physician is expected to ex- press an opinion. In seeking for a guide in this field, the professional worker has had his attention directed recently to various methods of grad ing or scoring food products. The grading of milk according to quality is now considered essential as a means of improving city milk supplies. Many factors enter into the problem, and at present opinions differ widely in regard to some of them. An exper fenced student of this subject ventur- ed this statement: Milk to be of high quality CD should have a food value suited to the needs of the consumer (2) should be free from visible dirt, unpleasant odors and tastes, (3) should not contain an excessive num- Der of bacteria, and (4) should he free from disease germs.
 The purely chemical examination of milk, including the determination of it's content of normal constituents and of the possible presence of deeterious substances, is no longer emphasized as it was formerly. The anxiety as to whether milk was watered or adul- terated has given way to a study of other significant features. Some of these, such as odor and taste, cannot readily be analysed; micro-organisms producing disease are not quickly de- tected in a practical way. so that the most effective ready criterion at pres ent appears to be the bacterial count in milk.
 In recent years there has arisen a system of scoring" dairies which has been the subject of much criticism and many misgivings. yet has been widely adopted by important commu- mites and food interests. The aim of the score card is to emphasize to the producer the importance of clean liness in handling milk and to desig nate those places where improvement can be made. At the same time the card serves as record of sanitary

WAR DECREASES SICKNESS
 FIFTY PER CENT

Little Rock, Aug. 18.-When eggs advanced in the past winter, it was charged to the European war and it's effect on the hens. The excessive rains of spring and early summer are also charged to the war, but now we have another-one which deserves the medal.
 Sickness has depressed at least 50 per cent this year" states prominent Little Rock physician, land we car blame the war for it. We have dis cussed the decrease in sickness in our meetings and all physicians agree that this is about the proper estimate, shown from their books. Where the was comes in is that it has caused the people to live less luxuriantly. They eat plain food and it agrees with them Even though it cuts into our receipts, we cannot say that we ere not glad to see the general improvement in health"

TESTING THE VALUE OF THE

The value of the Kindergarten as tested by its results is discussed by Miss A. NJ. Winchester in an annual Feview of kindergarten work just is |ued by the Commissioner of Educa- ton.
 "For several years investigations have been undertaken in different (ites," says the review, flor the pur- bose of ascertaining the advantage kaned by children with kindergarten Training over non-kindergarten child len. The emphasis in these investi- cations has been placed usually upon he rate of speed with which the child len make the successive grades"
