Holstein Cows
Milk for
tuberculosis

II W. G. Hunting ton, NJ. D., Howell,
Mich, says: ''There is one class of case
for which [ consider Holstein Milk es
pecially adapted and that is Tuberculo
sis. These patients have weak digestion
and usually cannot manage much free
fat. The relatively high proportion of
protein and carbohydrates with the
very complete emulsifcation of the fat
in the Holstein Milk makes it ideal for
these PATIENTS
II All physicians, who for any reason
have made a study Of milk, agree that
Holstein Cows milk is the best possibl
milk for infants, invalids and general
family use.

OLD POSTAGE STAMPS
BETTER Than BONDS
Offer Rare Investments, Says Local
Collector of Shckers.

Rare old postage stamps are better
Investments than many bonds"
That Is what Harry Mason, one Of
the best-known stamp collectors of Wash
ington, declared yesterday in discuss
ing the value of old stamps.
"One of the most curious things about
old stamps is that intrinsically they have
no value, as old gold and silver coins
have and yet they are worth vastly
more than old coins. About the high
est price ever paid for old coins Is
zoo for the 1904 silver dollar, while many
old stamps bring $1,000"
Comparing old stamps with bonds, he
said that rare old stamps got moro
valuable every year, almost without sx-
ception, and that practically nothft g
would impair the value of old stamps
1T is far more difficult to counter
telt old stamps than money" said Mr.
Mason. They would have to counter
felt the old paper. the color of the
stamp. the quality and color of the stamp
ing ink the quality of the mucilage, the
perforations, and the water marks"
MIR. Mason declared that It would be
far more difficult to counterfeit an old
stamp than even an old painting.

HOLE IN SWISS CHEESE
TRACKED TO ITSLAIR
Secret of Alps Country Barred by
u. s. Scientists.

Discovered The secret of big holes in
Switzer cheese!
The momentous discovery was disclosed
to breathless world yesterday by the
experts OF the dairy division of the De-
partment OF Agriculture
1t means that IN a little while the
cheese factories Of Wisconsin will be
making better imported Swiss" than the
Swiss ever knew how to make
A germ does tour old friend bacillus
prOpiaonicus.
This little germ makes a whole lot Of
gas, and the gas makes bubbles, and the
bubbles makes holes, and the bigger the
hole the better the cheese!
The cheese makers and bacteriologists
OF the dairy division have been working
over the problem, under the direction of
Chief BacteriolOgist L. A. Rogers, for
seight years. They worked four years
before they found out what germ was
necessary.
Then came the puzzle of injecting each
batch OF cheese with this germ This
has just been solved. 1t is done by tax
ing cultures from fine imported cheese
and transferring these cultures to all
new cheeses. These cultures spread
through the new cheese rapidly and made
a product that ey cells the original
As the final step OF the discovery the
Department Of Agriculture will erect a
cheese factory at Grove City within the
next few months.
