pig pen, the barnyard, and all other
sources of contamination. Under Ger
tain circumstances it is permissible
to have the milk house in the same
building as the stables, but in this
case it should be provided with a sep
arate entrance and the partition walls
should not be pierced by any door OF
window.
The interior of the milk house
should be divided into two rooms in
order that the utensils may be washed
in one and the milk handled in an
other. All unnecessary lodges or
rough surfaces should be avoided in
the interior, as these tend to collect
dust and dirt. Round edges of walls
are also a convenience in cleaning
The floors should be of concrete and
pitched to drain through bell traps.
For the walls and ceilings, cement
plaster on painted metal lathing is
best. Thorough ventilation is ne.
cessity and ventilators will be found
desirable in keeping air fresh and free
from odors. No system of mechanical
ventilation, however, can take the
place of fresh air and sunlight, SO
that windows are of prime importance
In summer these must be kept screen
ed in order to keep out flies and other
insects.
A plentiful and convenient supply
of water is necessity. Purity in the
water is the first and most obvious
requisite. Outbreaks of typhoid fever
in cities have more than once been
traced to dairy farms where the wash
water was impure. The water which
comes from shallow wells that receive
surface drainage or seepage from
barnyards or pastures should never
be used After purity the convenience
of water supply should be consid
cred. If it is not possible to have the
gravity system, supply may be piped
from an elevated tank fed by by
draulicram, engine, windmill, or hand
pump.
In order to make sure that the uten
sils are properly washed, convenient
arrangements for heating the water
must also be made. The utensils
should be rinsed in cold water imme
diately after being used and then
washed thoroughly in hot water tc
which soda or some washing powder
has been added. Brushes are prefer
able to cloths for washing, as they are
more easily kept clean and do better
work. After washing, the utensils
should be rinsed once more and ther
sterilized. This can be done by i'm
mersing them in boiling water for Al
least two minutes. or BY holding then
over q steam Jet for the same time
The most effective method, however
is to put them in hot closet thor

sils. may, nevertheless, easily become
contaminated before it reaches the
consumer. There is, therefore, no
point at which the modern dairyman
can afford to be careless.
The milk should be taken at once
to the milkhouse, a building which
should be convenient to the barn, but
10 placed as to be free from dust and
stable odors. Preferably it should be

oughly sterilized with steam. Such
treatment will destroy or render harm
less all the disease-producing bacteria
commonly found in milk. While still
hot the utensils shold be removed
from the steam or water and allowed
to dry from their own heat, being kept
inverted in a clean place, free from
dust, flies and other forms of contain
intion. ... -
If the proper find of utensils are
used these precautions will be found
much less troublesome. Wooden uten-
sils are particularly hard to sterilize,
and, therefore, are not used in the
best-equipped diaries. Battered and
rusty ware is also hard to clean, and
contact with iron may injure the
favor of milk. Any utensil with COM
plicated parts, crevices, or inaccess-
ible places should be avoided.
In the milk house the milk should
be weighed, strained and cooled at
once. The object of weighing is to
enable the dairyman to know the yield
of each cow ,inorder that he may
eliminate from his herd the unproft-
able ones. Cooperative milk-testing
associations now do this work in many
cases for farmers with small herds,
but there is no reason why it cannot
be done by the dairyman himself il it
is not convenient for him to join some
association. The straining of the
milk, which is done in order to re-
move any dirt that may have fallen
into it, is best accomplished by layer
Of sterilized absorbent cotton between
two cloths, or else by straining
through several thicknesses of cheese
cloth or similar material. These cloths
should be washed just as the other
utensils are, boiled for five minutes,
and then hung in clean place to dry.
To retard the growth of bactaria,
milk must be cooled Immediately to a
temperature Of so degrees Fahrenheit,
or lower if possible. Ordinarily this
can be done most satisfactorily by
placing the cans in a tank, preferably
Of concrete, which contains enough ice

Thomas II. Layman For County
Commissioner.

To the Editor of The Republican.
have been asked by various voters
to give my opinion of the temper and
disposition of the Republican voters and
citizens of this district with reference
to T. H. Layman, our neighbor, for our
next county commissioner. | am
happy to express myself, on behalf of
the Republican party in our county and
all citizens interested in the nomination
and the election of our next county
commissioner.
Ii there is in any part of the county
a deeper interest felt in his election
than there is in any other part, it must
of course be in this end of the county,
where Mr.. Layman has lived life of
usefulness in ''The Halfway House" on
the National Pike.
We are happy to report to you that
Mir. Layman is a retired farmer and is
in a position to give his time and energy
to the needs of our county.
His well conducted farm and his
previous public services IN 1895 are an
index to what our county may expect
if he is elected.
We feel sure that he will use the
same good judgment, as in his own
affairs, in handling the county's money
to the best advantage of all our tax
payers concerned.
He is progressive yet he will not try
to do too much.
We are also pleased to report, that
the Grantsville district being next to
the front column in our county in as
sessed valuation. will give generous
and cheerful and effective support to
Thomas H. Layman at the election.
Oakland district having the largest
town is first in the column of assessed
valuation in our county. Oakland dis
trict has sometimes been sensured for
wanting to elect more than its share of
county officers.
Yet we must say that in our opinion
Oakland district has always been quite
willing to give the Grantsville district
and this end of our county full quota
of representatives in our county's af-
fairs whenever we have been able to
bring forth political timber from our
own ranks and have stood by our man.
We believe that it is generally con-
coded throughout the different districts
of the county that this end of the coun-
ty should furnish the County Commits
sioner this year and we believe that
Thomas H. Layman should be the man.

Deadly Sins.

The fourth in the catalogue is Envy.
Solomon says it is rottenness to the
bones. 1t is grief or displeasure at the
success of another; or we feel delight in
their Ill success. Emulation is good, it
is right, though it may be excited by
the success of another and it produces
a sense of admiration and imitation in
stead of depression and despair.
Envy has caused many of the great
est and blacklist crimes that have been
committed. 1t led Cain to kill his
brother.
1t was in the revengeful spirit of
Saul who plotted for years the destruc-
ton of David. 1t bides its time when 1t
can successfully strike the fatal blow
and accomplish its nefarious purposes.
1t led the king of Israel to long for
the vineyard of Naboth. He coveted it
then slew him to get it. 1t was at the
bottom of the prosecutions and martyr
doms suffered by Gods people 1t per-
petrated the foulest crime the world
has ever known, on which the sun re-
fused to shine, and nature expressed its
adherence by rending the rocks. You
recognize the Ioccasion-the, crucifxion
of Jesus. 1t produces many sins of the
tongue, which is a little number it's
true, but it boasteth great things some

INCOMPETENT DEMOCRACY
John Sharp Williams So Stated Tore
Than Two Years Ago.

Washington, d. c., July %. That
the Democratic party is incompetent is
the statement made bv Senator John
Sharp Williams of Mississippi in an adj
dress to the United States Senate.
The poor, dear, old foolish Demo-
cratic party is going through the same
game that she can be generally trusted
to go through" said Senator Williams
to his Democratic colleagues. "You
cannot govern the country. You are
incompetent.
Some measure of that incompetency
has been referred to hitherto in stories
pointing out specific errors in the tariff
bill due to inexcusable laundering. Mis-
takes IN other laws have been discussed
in more recent articles. A brief re-
sumo OF these mistakes is given here
with, to be followed later by instances
of other faulty Democratic legislation.
No. 8. The provision enacted by the
Democratic Congress to build up the
American merchant marine utterly
failed to achieve its purpose, and con-
ferred the proposed benefit instead upon
competing vessels of other countries,
giving to foreigners the profits from
high freight rates, according to the
decision of the Court of Customs
Appeals in the five per cent. rebate
case.
No. 9. The Democratic Congress
blundered in enacting the law to provide
greater safety and comfort at sea for
passengers and seamen by naming two
conflicting dates for the time it should
take effect.
No. TO- The war tax law was in
accurately drawn; was not based upon
correct estimates and failed to provide
the money needed; necessitated ex-
pensive litigation; and adequate prepa-
ration for its enforcement was not
made, causing great delay. annoyance
and confusion.
No. ii. The executive branch of the
Democratic administration is at war
with the legislative branch, and has
asked the Supreme Court to declare in
operative the law allowing a FIVE per
cent reduction in the tariff on goods i'm
ported in American bottoms.
No. y. The most vital error a legis-
lative body can make was incorporated
IN the war tax" law, Congress having
given two conflicting dates as to the
time Schedule B should begin to CO.
operate
No. 13. Congress invited litigation
over Schedule B of the war tax" law
by failing to clearly express the mean
ing of the provision to TAX cosmetics, "
and the matter is now in the courts.
No. IA. Thousands of dollars collect
ed from trust companies under the
war tax law may have to be refund
ed because Congress failed to make
clear whether or not they are subject
to the tax, question that has been
taken to the courts for determine ton.
