To INVESTIGATE
SOURCES OF MILK
SUPPLY IN STATE
Department of Health to In
augurate Campaign to In
sure This important Food
Being Clean and Wholesome

SPECIAL coRREsPoHpEscE TO MORNING JOURNAL
Santa Fe, N M. Oct. Allow good,
or how bad, are the milk supplies of
New Mexico? That is what the state
department is trying TO find out. DR.
c. f. Waller. commissions of health,
says that milk is the indispensable
food for children and that it cannot
be produced too clean and whole
some when the health of children is
at stake
Few people realize" says Or. Wal
Ter, the extreme care and scrupulous
attention to cleanliness necessary TO
produce a really safe milk. Milk is so
liable to contamination that every step
from the COW to consumer must be
safeguarded TO prevent dirt and gerrls
getting into it."
In the first place, milk must come
from healthy, clean and properly fed
dairy cows. If the cows are not tested
with tuberculin to prove that they are
not infected with tuberculosis, the
milk must be pasteurized The cows
must be Clean the milkeR clean, and
al milk utensils, pals and bottles
clean and sterilized by live steam or
boiling water. Immediately after milk
ing the milk must cooled rapidly, and
kept cold decd in summer) until de-
livered TO the consumer Except where
special pains are taken under expert
supervision, as in the case of certified
milk, the milk should be pasteurized
'Pasteurization is the one certain
safeguard against the Transmission of
infectious disease by milk. Infected
milk has been the cause of epidemics
of typhoid, diphtheria.i scarlet fever
and sceptic sore throat, and is respon-
sible for certain amount of tubercu-
lcsis among children.
"Pasteurization of mix consists sim
ply in heating the milk rapidly to 140
degrees Fahrenheit, holding it at that
temperature FOR thirty minutes, and
then cooling it rapidly to 40 degrees,
at which latter temperature il is held
until delivered to the consumer. When
properly done, this destroys all the
disease germs in the milk, and does
not change its composition or affect
the flavor or food value
For our ehildren's sake we want
clean milk from clean healthy cows,
MIXED by clean, healthy mixers into
clean steriized utensils, promptly
cooled and delivered in clean sterile
containers. AS an added safeguard,
pasteurization is advised in all but ex-
| ceptional cases"

LOOKERS-0N ARE HYPNOTlZED
There Seems to Be No Other Explana-
ton of Tricks Performed by East
Indian Jugelers.

At recent meeting of sleight-of-
hand experts all the magieians con
fessed their utter inability to describe
the method by which the ropeclimbng
trick, so often described by British
travellers in India. is performed. 1ba
Batuta, an Arab from Tangiers, says
writer in the Boston Transcript, de-
serihed the trick IT'S follows:
l was entertained by the emir in his
own house at Hangchow In most
splendid manner. At the banquet were
present the khan's juggiers, the chief
of whom took wooden sphere, to
which was attached a long strap, and
threw ii up Into the air until il went
out of sight. While the strap remained
in his hand. He then commanded one
of his helpers to ascend by this strap.
The boy obeyed and climbed out of
sight. His master then called him
three times, but no answer came. Then
he took Il knife in his hand, apparent
ly in anger, laid hold of the strap, and
also went out of sight He then threw
the hand of the boy upon the ground,
then his foot, then his other hand, then
his other foot, then his body. then his
head. He then came down, painting
for breath, with his clothes stained
with blood.
The jnggler now took the limbs of
the boy and applied them one to an
other. He then stamped upon them,
and the boy stood up complete and
erect. | was astoniShed, and was
seized in consequence by 81 palpltation

drink and | recovered. The judge of
the Mohammedans. who was sitting by
my side, swore that there was neither
ascent descent nor cutting away of
limbs. but that the whole was mere
juggling.
