KEEP MILK SWEET

Thu approaching warm weather
will make ;! necessary f,r dairy.nc'
and housewives to take 'ytra p~ecau
tions to prevent loss through sour
ing of milk and cream. AS milk
is an ideal food for both babies and
bacteria, it frequently happens that
in warm weather the bacteria are the
first to enjoy this delicate food.
Though the acid development in the
milk during souring is not harmful
to the health of adults, it is injurious
to infants and distasteful to many
older people, and will surely cause
dairymen to lose money.
A successful dairyman near the
Missouri college of agriculture has
solved this problem by removing the
causes. Since dirt is loaded with
bacteria he first keeps both dirt and
bacteria out of his milk, by using a
small top pail, by keeping his pals,
cans. strainers and other milk utensils
clean, and by keeping his cows free
from dirt and filth. This can be
cheaply and efficiently done by
thoroughly washing the utensils with
hot water soon after using as possible
and setting them in clean protected
place to drain until used. BY brushing
the cows daily and preventing them
from becoming dirty, by using plenty
of bedding, and by keeping the barn
yard clean.
Since bacteria will not sour milk
unless they grow in it, he prevents
their growth by cooling his milk as
soon as produced and keeping it cool
until delivered. The best of dairy
men cannot furnish milk free from
bacteria so that it will not sour II
left for hours in a warm place. Both
dairymen and housewives will do well
to remember that cleanliness and low
temperatures $50 degrees) will pre-
vent this loss.-Percy Werner, Jr.

formation as to military matters in
Austria Hungary. England, France,
Germany and Russia. It omits Bel
gium, Bulgaria, Italy, Montenegro,
Serbia and Turkey from its table, but
holds that these would add at least
100000 to the incapcitated and the
dead.
The Journal credits Austria Hun
gary with 100000 enlistments, 3,000,-
900 casualties and 100000 inca
pacitated. or dead; England with A.
500, 900 enlistments with 100000 casu-
alities and with 350,000 incapacitated
or dead; France with 4,500,00O enlist
ments, with 2,5O0,OO0 casualties and
with 100000 incapacitated or dead;
Germany with 100000 enlistments,
with 100000 casualties and with
100000 incapacitated or dead; Rus
sia with 10000, 900 enlistments, 5,00O,-
900 casualties and 100000 dead or
incapacitated. It also believes that
in Russia's case the last two items
are underestimated.
The enlistments show that five ma
tions summoned at least 100000
men to war, while the armies of Tur-
key, Serbia, Montenegro, Italy, Bull
garia and Belgium together would
raise the aggregate to nearly 50,O00,-
900. On the narrowest margin of
calculation over 100000 casualties
have occurred, and 9,350,000 are dead
or are disabled permanently.
The table shows that Austria Hun
gary, France and Germany have be-
gun to bleed white, for each has now
put into the field that tenth Of its
population which, military authorities
consider the practicable maximum n
war. England, Russia and (suppos-
ably) Italy also have not begun to
reach this maximum and so the weight
of masses of men tells terribly against
the Teutonic powers.

From T.1,lrstlay's Daily

Slowly rising temperatures greet

shortest day in the year and the be-

''ha mercury took q noticeable
jump in the right direction today.
Yesterdays low mark was rs de-
grces and the minimum today was
20 degrees. But on Wednesday the
temperature remained unchanged
throughout the forenoon, while
four-degree lift was noticed at 8
o'clock this morning.
The winter season officially COM
mencss at 9.59 D. m. this evening,
which is several hours after sunset.
The sun rose at 7:24 this morning
and set at 4:32 this afternoon, maxi
ing day nine hours and eight min

Throughout the day, the mercury
continued to climb and conditions
were much more moderate in the af-
ternoon. The weather was still cold,
but the sky was clear and the pre-
dictions everywhere promised that it

STARTS
co. SEAT CONTEST
GREGORY FIGHT is REOpENED
WITH CHARGE THAT MANY
FARMERS VOTED ILLEGAL-
LY IN ELECTION.

Fairfax, S. Dds intimated
might be the case. the residents of
F'Hi-'fav hove instituted a contest in
the state circuit court by which they
seek to retain the coutny seat of
GREGORY county,. as against the claims
Of Burke, which contends that it
the election in November.
1t is alleged in the complaint of
Fairfax that more than fifty farm
ers residing outside of the city
limits of Bonesteel and Dallas voted
at polling places within the city
limits when they had no right to do
so. These votes were cast illegally
for Burke, and Fairfax contends that
they should not have been counted.
III these votes were thrown out it
would leave Burke short of the nee
essary numper Of votes to secure the
removal OF the county seat from Fair
fax to Burke.
Tho Fairfax people will demand
that these ovtes were thrown out,
end if the circuit court rules against
them, the contest case will be car
red to the state supreme court. The
attorneys for Burke will demur to
the complaint, and viii do every
thing in theif power to expedite the
case and get it before the supreme
court at as early date as possible,
so a decision can be rendered in the
near future.
