F'rom the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
In justice to the farmer, milk dealers
should give considerable attention to
the question of washing the cans be-
fore they are returned. If the cans
are allowed to go back unwashed to
the farmer, it is a very difficulty task
for him, with his limited facilities, to
clean them.
In a circular letter recently sent to
milk dealers by the dairy division of
the department, it was pointed out
that bacterial counts made from cans
which had been washed and rinsed in
the ordinary manner showed that there
were from 100000 to 100000 bac-
terra in each can, with an average of
100000. If 10 gallons of milk were
put into one of these cans there would
be added more than 100 bacteria to
each cubic centimeter of the milk.
That is to say, this is the least num-
Der that would be added. Whereas, it
was pointed out, with little steam
ing these same cans could have been
rendered practically sterile.
Bacterial Counts.
One dealer who recently installed a
modern washing machine employed a
Psychologist to test the results. 1t
was found that less than 100000 bac-
terra were in a can, and among them
were no undesirable types. Bacterial
counts of cans treated by a less eff
cient steaming device which this deal
er had formerly employed ran as high
as 100000 bacteria to the can, in
Guiding some undesirable kinds.
There are a number of different
types of cleaning machines on the
market. The aim of all the efficient
ones, however, is the thorough clean
sing with washing powder and water,
rinSing. sterilization with steam, and
rapid drying. After this the can should
be covered and kept from eontamina-
ton.
One of the simplest of the machines
is a jet device, by means of which
sprays of cold and hot water and of
steam are successfully forced into the
cam. This type also is equipped some
times with a drying attachment by
means of which a draft of dry air is
forced into the can. Another type is
the brush machine. in which cans are
brushed out with washing powder and
water and then rinsed. After washing
they may be steamed by a spray Of
steam.
Some of the largest machines are
fitted with powerful pumps, the cans
in an inverted position being run
through the machine and sprays Of
soap and water. rinse water. hot wa
ter. and steam successfully forced int
them under considerable pressure
They are then dried in the same ma

How Wars Range Has Extended.

"a relatively second-class rifle shot,
not to mention a sniper with a modern
rife, could with certain aim, hit Ma
poleon from the spot where Wellington
stood at Waterloo. This is the strik-

Mcguire illustrates in T. P.'s journal
the extended range of modern warfare.

DAIRY PRODUCTS IN DEMAND
Only Way New Districts Can Be Sup
piled Is by Breeding Up Herd
by Use of Good Bulls.

The great demand for dairy prod
ucts has caused the price of good dairy
cows TO be very high. Reports from
associations of dairymen show that
it is impossible to buy first-class dairy
cows at even $50 head. With such
a demand for cows in old dairy dis
tricts, there will be few good cows
moved into new dairy territory. So,
the only way new districts can be sup
piled must be by breeding up the COM
mon stock by the use of good dairy
bred bulls.

substitute for Olive OH.

The production of sim-sim of SEM
sem (Sesamum indicum) seed Is an
important agricultural endeavor on the
East coast and in the interior lake
districts of Africa. The total exporta-
ton Of this product from the protec-
torates of British East Africa and
Uganda during the fiscal year ended
March 81, 1915, (the last available de-
tailed statistics), amounted to 3,134, 800
pounds, valued at $1O2824, of which
amount about 20 per cent was pro-
duced in Uganda and the remainder
on the coastal plain Of British East
Africa.
In that year % per cent of these ex-
ports went to India, % per cent to
Alden, 18 per cent to Italy, Is per cent
to Italian Somallland, and most Of tho
balance to Zanzibar and France. In
former years Germany was the largest
purchaser Of this product, which is q
substitute for olive oil. These figures,
1t should be understood, do not repre-
sent the total production of sim-sim
within the territory mentioned mas
much as a very large amount is con-
sumed locally.

Spare Convict's Hands,

Now we know exactly what Justice
Darling really thinks Of violin players,
says the London Globe. One Of that
tuneful craft appealed against doing
hard labor for felony because 1t might
spoil his hands. The court remitted the
hard labor and gave reasons.
Justice Darling said that it was e1-
pedient for the convict to have a pro-
fession in which he could do no harm.
If his hands became hard and he could
not play the violin, he might again
take to practices of the kind of which
he had been convicted.
This Is quite new view to take of
the uses of the violin. Playing the
violin is useful, according to his lord
ship, because 1t keeps the performer
out of mischief. We wonder If this
applies to all music. The vocalist who
breaks out in song, we presume, less
likely to break into dwelling house.
He who picks the banjo will be kept
from picking pockets. And the per-
former who blows the cornet with feel
ing will not blow safe with nitro
glycerin.
