sioners, to enforce in the dairies and among the milk handlers more care ful and hygienic methods in the pro- duction and handling of milk The farmers too, will come in for a good deal of attention. They were warned last year by pr. Radcliff that the time was not far distant when the board of health would require of them more careful strainng, storing and cooling of milk
 In the city dairies sterilization with live steam of utensils, particularly cans and bott1ing machines, will be demanded. AS efficient cooling of the milk will be required in the future and farmers supplying milk to the dafries should take pains, while ice IS plentiful to store as much in as will be required for this purpose. pr. II. +. Moore and pr. Radcliff have visited the state dairy and food
 connnlsSloner in Hartford in order to
 discuss this matter with him and, as a consequence the help of the state dairy department has been offered.

fitv Health Department and State Department to Cooperate for More
 Wholesome Supply Here.

During the past few weeks the de- partment of health has been engaged in an intensive study of the m1lk sup ply of the city of New Britain. Ihls work was carried out by Dr. B. h. Radcliff, meat, milk and food Inspec- tor, in the dairies where the hygiene conditions obtaining were subjected to investigation, and in the laboratory where the chemical, physical and bacteriological examinations were made by Dr. H. l.. Moore and Mrs $. w. Kitson. From the results so far obtained the conclusion has been arrived at that the handling of the milk supply from q hygienic point of view is capable of much improve ment. The faulty hygienic conditions existing are reflected in the high bac- terial content of the milk.

LITTLE GIRL MEETS TRAGIC END.

Little did Mr.. and Mrs. John D.
Roberts when they retired last
Tuesday night apprehended that
within a few hours their second
daughter, Ethel, aged about ten
years, would be taken from them
but that sword was then hanging
over their devoted heads and be-
tween eight and nine o'clock We'd
nesday morng fell and severed from
their household one of their great
est treasures.
After four o'clock Tuesday after
noon Ethel and some other children
were playing on see-saw made on
a pile OF lumber, when Ethel fell
and received a small hurt. She
continued to play until supper time,
when she ate but little and made
some complaint of headache. She
went to sleep but was sick in the
night and Mr.. Roberts summoned
physician. Not until four o'clock
Wednesday morning did the parents
apprehend any danger, and after
that time the child continued to
grow worse and died at 7 o'clock.
The blow to the parents and the
remainder Of the family is one not
to be understood by one who has
not suffered such anguish of body
and mind, but their many relatives
and friends sympathize with them
so far as they are able to do.
The little girl was one of the
brightest, the sweetest, the most
lovable in all the town and the sad
news of her death Wednesday
morning, falling like a thunderbolt,
cast a pail Of gloom over the entire
community.
The funeral occurred at Hare's
graveyard yesterday (Thursday) at
noon, Elder E. M. Borden, of the
Christian church, officiating.
