Surplus in State Insurance Fund.

The state insurance fund has a
surplus of $4,000, according to w. r.
Greene, actuary of the State Insurance
Commission. Figures for the first five
months after the law became oper-
alive showed a balance of $9S, 465. 10
with the state treasurer. The law
has been operative long enough to
prove to the commission that the
premiums being received from the
various industries are sufficient to
pay compensation and accumulate a
surplus in addition, according to
Greene.

COOK LOSES INDEMNITY SUIT.
widow Awarded $4,000 for Death OF
Husband With Pneumonia After
Accident


Denver.-The State Industrial Com.
mission has ruled that occupational
diseases are not covered by the work
mems compensation law, and that,
therefore, indemnities under the WORK
mems compensation insurance law
cannot be paid for suffering or death
due to such diseases.
This was one of the most import
ant points remaining before the COM
mission for determination. The de-
cision of the commission was given
on an appeal made by Sam Virgil, a
cooks assistant, who claimed colnpen-
sation because of rash that broke
out on his arms while he was en-
ployed in Rocky Ford hotel.
In its decision the commission held
that the rash was an occupational dis
ease, not an accident, and that, there,
fore, Virgil was not entitled to an in
demnity
In an appeal made by Mrs Edith j..
Langdon on behalf of herself and Il
minor child for a death indemnity for
the death of her husband, Samuel J.
Langdon, the commission ruled that
an accident which her husband suf-
fered while working for the Cresson
Consolidated Gold Mining Company
was the proNimate cause of his death,
although the man died of pneumonia.
Mrs. Langdon was. therefore, allowed
the full death indemnity of $500.

also manufactured.
In the ripening vat dirt and dead
flies were scattered over the surface
of the pasteurized cream, thus rein
fecting it. The man in charge in
formed us that he was ashamed to
let us see the plant, as it was "all
wrong"
improvements are on the way" he
declared.
He agreed that naked hands should
not be used in making butter unless
the workers are under medical in
spectioE.
He agreed that flies should be kept
out of butter at all cost for the same
reason that they should be kept out
of milk.
He knew the meaning of the phrase,
the typhoid fly"
He knew that the fly is a carrier of
disease.
He knew that the fly, feeding on tho
spittle of the floor or the street
emerging from a visit to a cuspidor
or toilet room can infect milk, pot
with measles, diphthe eria, septic sorc
throat, tonsilitis, scarlet fever, typhoid
fever, and tuberculosis.
He admitted that all the pasteur.
lied butter sold by his concern was
not pasteurized.
He did not know what percentage
came from other creameries or cen
tralizing plants.
We later learned of shipments of
raw butter from various centralizing
plants to this pasteurized butter in
stitution.

barns" 1t was the cream originat-
ing in them that Professor Supplee
had condemned.
DO you mean" he was asked, that
you reject the cream from these mod
ell barns while using the cream that
comes from the dirty farms in the
country districts roundabout"
That is exactly the situation" he
said. Il don't know anything about
the cream produced in outside farms
delivering to this creamery. But l
do know that the cream produced here
Is not fit for human consumption"
., He led the way to the room where
the cream from the creamery herd
was being made ready for churning.
1t was as bad as any of the barns
along the country roads. The walls
and ceilings were infested with flies.
Within twenty feet of the room lay a
manure pit over which the flies buzzed
in swarms.
Now you can see for yourself"
said Professor Supplee, why cannot
permit the stuff originating here to go
into Uncle Sans butter.
Il have been kept so busy here that
have been unable to find a single
hour in which to make inspections in
the country, in consequence of which
know nothing about the conditions to
be found there.
Perhaps very pound of butter pro-
duced here should be rejected. 1 don't
know, for the sole reason that I have
been unable to find out.
This plant operates every day in
the week. including Sunday. For the
first time in it's history a factory in
specter was here yesterday. When he
declared that the workers must have

ers of the plant said: IF this is the
law we will have to dock the men a
days pay. They are paid by the
week."
Asked concerning the disposition of
the butter condemned by him he said
THE stuff I reject for Uncle Sam is
converted into prints and shipped to
Philadelphia and New York City.
Furthermore, when l came here /
found they were pasteurizing in name
only. l was obliged to change their
methods so that the bacteria would be
killed as was claimed"
The conditions suggested by this
description are to be found in thou
sands of other barns and creameries.
They are common.
ON year later in pasteurizing
creamery in Chicago another group of
investigators, of which l was one,
found men working over full tubs
scraping the surplus from the tubs
with a stick and squeezing it with
their bare hands into Jumps The
Jumps We're then thrown into other
tubs.
Butter hanging from the tubs fell
to the cement floor and was picked
up dripping with dirty water and put
back into the tubs. We had lust
come in from the Chicago streets and
our shoes were in the water in which
the butter fell. 1t was "pasteurized"

When Professor George Supplee of
Cornell University was seen in the fac
tory then turning out 100000 pounds
of "pasteurized" butter for the United
states army and navy he was asked
where was the pond from which the
ice used in cooling the wash water
was cut.
He escorted the investigators to the
pond. II lay in a basin on the brow
of which stood two COW barns. With
every rain the drainage of these barns
was washed into the basin. The ice
was cut from frozen water and cow
sewage.
Come into the barn." said Pro-
fessor Supplee, "and I will show you

Itching Torture Stops

It is unnecessary for you to suffer
with eczema, blotches, ringworm, rashes
and similar skin stroubles. A little zemo
obtained at any drug store for 25c, or
Sl.O0 for extra large bottle, and promptly
applied will usually give instant relief
from itching torture. 1t cieanses and
soothes the skin and heals quickly and
effectively most skin diseases.
Zemo is wonderful, penetrating, dis
appearing liquid and is soothing to the
most delicate skin. 1t is not greasy, is
easily applied and costs little. Get it
today and save all further distress.
