FIFTT-NINTH ANNIvERsAKY

Forty-nine years ago today, Aug. So In 1872 the steamer Metis, bound from New York 10 Providence, was struck by a schooner and sank off Watch Hill with loss of about 40 lives, although the exact number was never learned.
 The collision occurred about $40 in tus morning, just as daylight was breaking. The night had been rainy and at the time there was a strong scutheasterly wind blowing. The schoon- CT struck the steamer about 40 feet aft of the bow. Capt Charles L. Burton sent officers below to see whether or not she was leaking. They reported every hing Satisfactory and the vessel was headed on her course again. In a few minutes the engineer reported that the hold was Killing rapidly Tho steamer vas headed for shore.
 The cabin which had been built on the boat some time after 1t had been launched, and had therefore noated when the lower part of the Metis be- anne filled with water went floating to- ward the shore.
 h aftervard developed that the cabin had continued toward the shore. but he heavy surf at the shoreline dero,- lshed the structure. and most of those who had been almost saved lost their lives.

MILK CAN BE. SAFELY
 PASTEURIZED AT HONI

Recently inquiry has been made of I'll Bulletin ss to how to pasteurize milk in case a householder should desire to do it for himself.
 According to rules and regulations for the pasteurizing of milk as adopted March 3, 1920, in this sstate, pasteurizing of milk is defined as a process by which milk is rapidly heated to a tempera ture of 145 degrees F., maintained betwf El 142 and 14S degrees F. for 30 minutes and then cooled immediately to a tenn perature of 30 degrees F., and held at that temperature until delivery.
 Pasteurizing in the home can be done according to Deputy Dairy and Food Commissioner Daniels by having a smaii double boiler. placing the milk in the inside receptacle and surrounding same with boiling water. heating the milk to a temperature of 142 to 145 degrees and then rapidly cooled to a temperature of 50 degrees.
 This is safe method of home pasteur- izing and it is to be supposed that prop CT care will be Taken to see thHt thear- ticles used are properly sterilized.

WILL CONSIDER INCREASES
 EoR STATE EMPLOY

When the state board of finance re- sumes it's sessions in September it is ex- pected that it will begin the task ot going over requests for increases in sal aries for state employees. This matter has been pending all summer ln view of. the desire of Governor Lake that as far as possible all salary increases be handled at one time. This course was decided upon early in the summer by the board of finance and the state ooaru or control to eliminate weekly discussions.
 The state board of finance figures III salary increases by virtue ot the law adopted by the recent General Assembly which authorizes salary increases for old employees upon the recommendation of the board of finance. Although the law has been in force since last June. there has as yet been no precipate de- mands been made on the board of finance for salary increases. It is understood that the aplications received thus far are few in number.
 It is expected that when the board of finance resumes it's sittings more appllca- lions will be received. Under the low, however all applications for salary in creases must come to the board of finance direct from the heads of state depart ments, boards, institutions and commits sions and not from individual employees. In other words the application for a raise in pay must first be approved by the department head. This feature, it is expected vii lsct as a deterrent to many who would otherwise beseech the board of finance for hearing on desired in creases.
 Indications are, however, that some members of the board of finance will not countenance applications from state en- ployes whose requests for salary increas- es were turned by the recent General Assembly. It is said by th-se who have been watching the situation that the LeEislature gave sufficient hearing to the claims of those whose applications were rejected. On the other hand it is point ed out hat the Legislature does not al ways give full consideration in the clos- ing days of the session and some times worthy causes are turned down.
 It is apparent that the board. or con troI will not consider salary requests in dividualiy but that the board will wait until th.I board of finance has compiled list of requests as submitted by de- partment heads and held it's hearings. The finance board will then submit its recomme Ndations to the board of con trol for final action. It is believed that this work will occupy the attention of both state bodies the greater part ot September and October.
