Monthly Report of the City
Chemist Declares That
Farmers Are Careless
In Milking.
BACTERIA COUNT LOWER
Five Samples of Milk Examined Dur
ing che Month are Reported as
''Unclean'' and One Is
Listed as Dirty

Carelessness among the farmers pro-
dueing milk for the Kenosha market
Is blamed for the unsatisfactory condi-
tions existing in the regular monthly
report of the city chemist made public
to-day and acting on this report the
city inspectors will start work to see
to 1t that the farmers give more care
to milk and cows and eliminate the
dangers which have been found in
milk supplied to Kenosha. In his re-
port Chemist Miller says;
''The result of milk ANALYSES made
The past month clearly show that
farmers are careless In milking. Dur
ing the late wet weather COWS natural
ly become more or less covered with
wet mud in the pastures. When
milking time comes, the mixer, in
stead Of cleaning the COWS thoroughly
with clean damp cloth, goes right
on with the milking allowing the mud
to drop into the milk. A number Of
samples show on the sediment disc the
fine dirt along with more or less man
ure, Straining milk removes most of
the coarse dirt but the fine matter
along with the germs, that are intro
duced with dirt, pass through the
strainer into the milk. Clarifying the
milk will remove all visible dirt but
the bacteria are increased as it is also
by ordinary straining due to the fact
that PARTICLES are broken up and the
bacteria dispersed throughout the
fluid. If the milk is produced from
clean, healthy cows in clean barns
by clean mixers, there is absolutely
no need Of straining or clarifying the
milk. The bacteria count in this re-
port is not so high since the cold wea-
Their retards their rapid growth. Tn
sold milk one germ produces three
germs in about twenty-four hours,
while in that same length of time in
warm milk, one germ produces 50,-
600.
We are not so much interested in

ever very much concerned in the sani-
tary condition of the milk and an in
dication of that condition is found in
the laboratory by making the sediment
test and bacteria count. The sedi-
ment test is made by thoroughly mix
ing q pint of milk and forcing it
through a cotton disc one inch in dia-
meter. The sediment grades are as
follows; Clean, fairly clean, unclean,
dirty and very dirty. Good milk must
fall into the clean or fairly clean
grade. Fairly clean means that there
is only trace of visible dirt on the
cotton disc. The bacteria count must
not be continuously be over 100000
bacteria per cubic centimeter (about
sixteen drops,)''

Andrew Larsen, Pleasant
Prairie Soldier Meets Ter
rible Wounds on October
10th on Western Front.
HOBART klNCAlD WAS GAsSED
Former WeIl-Known Theater Manager
Serving With the Marines Is Now
in Base Hospital in France
Anxious to Return to States.

"Oid Fritz is getting his all around
now and there is heap Of comfort
In this is the happy go-lucky mes
sage that Andrew Larsen, formerly of
Pleasant Prairie but now in the Mill
tary Base Hospital, No. / of the Ameri-
can Red Cross in France sends back
&c his uncle Otto Nelson OF Pleasant
Prairie. With it comes the announce
ment that Lagsen went over the top
and left a portion Of his right leg
on the field of battle. He was wound
ed on October Goth and the wound was
SO serious that it was found necessary
to amputate the leg. Larsen is not dis
Icouraged and in his letter he declares
that he was happy to make this sacri-
fee If it has aided to make the world
better place to live in. Larsen was
member of the quota called from Ke-
nosha county in April of this year and
he had his preliminary training at
Camp Custer. After he had been in
camp for only six weeks he went over
with the S5th Division and he has
seen a lot Of real fighting with this
division. He expects to be returned
to his home in Pleasant Prairie pos
sibly early in the new year.
A letter received from Hobart G..
Kineaid, brother Of Mrs. Collins of
the Burke theatre, states he has been
in the hospital in France recuperating
from three attacks Of gas, and wounds
in his left hand and wrist.
Private Kincaid states that he was
in some of the thickest of the fight
and that after the attack of gas he
was sent back Of the lines until he had
become stronger.
Private Kincaid left with the 1o1st
Marines for overseas duty last Feb
Iruary, and has been in France doing
his bit for the past nine months.
He has been transferred to three
different companys since enlisting and
had preliminary training in this coun-
try at, Paris Island, and Quantico, Va,
before sailing.
Private Kincaid was one of those
enthusiastic 10 year old enlisters, one
who was willing to do any thing in
order to serve Uncle Sam.
Mrs. Collins states, the enthusiasm
was so intense that Privte Kincaid af-
ter going to Milwaukee, upon three
different occasions to enlist, and find
ing his weight was below schedule,
came home and drank bottle after bot
tie Of Cod Liver Oil, to bring his avoir-
dupois, to the passing mark.
! We are so anxious for his return,
states Mrs. Collins that we will be
willing to give him the best job that
the theatre affords.
His many friends also with him a
speedy return and state that warm
welcome is waiting him here.
No word has been received about
when he might return to the United
States, but every one concerned hope
that it will be in the very near flu
ture.
