new PASTEURIzlNC
PLANT FOR MONETT

]. A. iivesay began ops 'ations at
his new Pasteurizing plant on East
Broadway, September l. He is using
the building formerly occupied by the
Breeze Bottling Works. The room has
been thoroughly renovated and made
spotlessly clean for the new industry.
The machinery is strictly modern
MIR. Livesay has made arrangements
with several dairy companies to take
care of their entire product and he Will
sell the milk out to their customers,
making one delivery a day, which will
he in the evening. The price will re-
main the same to customers.
The milk is sterilized and heated to
a degree of heat which will destroy
all germs. 1t is then cooled before
being bottled. Milk which has been
Pasteurized will be perfectly pure and
will keep sweet much longer than that
treated in the ordinary way.
Milk is the most perfect food, but
it is also most susceptible to germs
Many epidemics of fevers have been
traced to the dairies. With the new
process of Pasteruization, this danger
is eliminated.
The New York Journal gives an in
stance of where an attack of typhoid
fever was directly attributed to the
drinking of raw milk.
The late great Dr. John B. Murphy,
of Chicago, never permitted the use
in his family of any milk not pasteur-
lied.
Once in Florida, having put pasteur-
lied milk in his coffee, and finding 1t
too hot, he added a little cream not
pasteurized The result was an attack
of typhoid fever-most serious.
He sent commission to investi-
gate and found that the sample of
cream not pasteurized came from
dairy farm, and on that farm the man
who MIXED the cows was what is
known as a typhoid carrier" color
