Poison Stocks Fly Enemies.

BY poisoning with arsenic the car
casses of large animals which cannot
be promptly burned or buried, large
numbers of flies which are capable Of
serious injury TO meat-prOducing ami
mails can be killed. Dead carcasses
should be partly skinned, the flesh
slashcd, and n solution of one pound
of white arsenic boiled in five gallons
of water should be applied freely.
After few days the carcass may be
turned over and the other side treated
similarly. After it has thus served as
poisoner, the carcass should be
burned or buried.

CURING Elephants Gold.

A circus man, caught in the act of
curing an elephant of cold, was dared
to take his own medicine. He declin-
ed, but invited the interviewer to re-
turn the next day and see the elephant
cured. And the next day the elephant
was rid of the cold. The keeper placed
bucket of boiling hot vinegar in a
bag and then tied the latter about the
animals trunk so that he was COM
PEELED to inhale the beneficial fumes
whether he wished to or not.

only with dry hands. The practice of
wetting the hands with milk is a filthy
one and in the winter is likely to
cause the teats to chap. Milking
should be done quickly and thoroughly
with no violent Jerking of the teats.
After each cows milk is drawn 1t
should be removed Immediately to the
milk house.
The mllker shOlld remember always
that he is handling a human food
which is very easily contaminated.
Soap, clean water and towels must
be readily accessible and the hands
should be washed after milking each
COW; this is commonly done on many
first-class dairy farms. The use of
clean milking stool will do much to
prevent soiling the hands.

Pure Air for Pure Milk.

Every COW stable should have a
system of ventilation to keep the air
fresh and pure and the cows COM
Portable without exposing them to in
furious drafts. Bad odors in the
stable indicate that the ventilation is
deficient. At least 500 cubic feet of
air space should be provided for each
COW. Farmers who desire to provide
proper ventilation in COW stables can
obtain information on this point by
applying to the dairy division of the
United States department of agricul-
ture.

SMALL-TOP MILK
PALS KEEP OUT
HARMFUL GERMS.

In modern dairies where clean
milk is produced the small-top
milk pail is a necessity, as it
presents only small opening
into which dust and dirt may
fall from the air or from the
cows body. 1t has been found
by experience that the use of a
pail of this kind greatly reduces
the number of bacteria in milk
from dairies where it is used.
Many types of milk pals are for
sale, but any timer by the addi-
ton of hood can convert any
ordinary pail into a small-top
pail.

GIVE PIG PLACE IN THE SUN.

Remember this in making your
piggery ready for the spring
war litters: A little pig loves
: sunshine and needs it almost as
much as he needs food. No
piggery is fit for the purpose un-
less 1t admits direct sunshine
onto the floor of every pen at
the time the pigs are farrowed,

and provides exercise in the
, open air. Dryness, sunshine,
warmth, fresh air, freedom
from drafts and exercise are of
primary Importance in raising
pigs. These secured, the job is
half done. In putting up build
ings the six requirements just
mentioned must be kept con-
stantly in mind. Not one can
be neglected.

CLEAN milk is
MOST DESIRABLE
Various Methods of Milking
Should Stand Eye Test of
Customers.
KEEP OUT HARMFUL BACTERIA
Ordinary common-Sense Rules Of
Cleanliness Will Do Much to Pre-
vent Contamination - Clean
Stable Before Milking.

Suppose, Mr.. Dairyman, your Gus
toners should step into your dairy
barn unannounced at milking time
would you be likely to lose some of them
! as result of things they saw
Would they see cleanly dressed milk
ars in a clean barn, milking from
clean cows into clean pals? Or would
they see another picture which need
not be drawn but which is all too COM
mon, even in these days of improved
dairy methods-a picture whose re-
Election is the layer of sediment which
the consumer will see if he holds up a
bottle Of milk from such a dairy and
looks at the bottom of it?
Keep Out the Germs.
Ordinary cOmmon-sense rules of
cleanliness at milking time will do
much to prevent contamination of
milk by the easiest ways. Unless
considerable care is taken, large num-
bers of bacteria may find their way
into the milk during the process of
milking. Cows should be MIXED in
clean, well-lighted stables. BY taking
great pains it may be possible to pro-
duce good milk in a dark or dirty
stable, but it is extremely improbable
that the average dairyman will obtain
a desirable product under such con-
ditiOns.
Grooming and feeding the cows, as
well as cleaning the stable and remov-
ing the manure, should not be done
just before milking. as these opera
tions fill the air with odors, dust, and
bacteria which may contaminate the
milk.
After grooming and before milking,
the udders, flanks and bellies Of the
cows should be carefully wiped with
q damp cloth to remove any dust or
loose hairs which might fall into the
pail. In some dairies where milk con-
tanning an exceptionally small number
of bacteria is produced the cows I'D
ders are washed twice in clean water
and then wiped with a clean cloth.
