at this point, but they can be made
with equal success in less valuable
parts, such as the flank or auxiliary
space, where there Is loose connective
tissue that readily absorbs the serum.
In making an auxiliary injection the
front legs should be spread apart SO
as to stretch the superficial muscles
between the legs, and the needle should
be directed so as to avoid the muscles
Of the shoulder.
1t is desirable to make the injec-
tiOns at point that will make drain
age easy should an abscess form. Sc
rum should never be injected into q
mass of fatty tissue, as it Is not suffi-
ciently absorptive. Although the SER
Gus membrane lining In the nbdom-
inal cavity takes up serum readily, alb
dominal injections are not recommend
ed because Of the danger of punctur-
ing the internal organs with the
needle or of carrying infection into the
cavity.
Small pigs and shotes up to 80
pounds in weight may be held up by
the hind legs, with the forefeet rest
ing on the ground, and the injection
made into the loose tissue of the flank.
A pig SO held is in good position for
the taking Of temperature, cleansing
the area Of operation, and making the
injection. Farmers Bulletin 1874,

prepared By the United States Department
'z.s OF Agriculture)
Milk Of ordinary quality held at IS
degrees Fahrenheit, a temperature not
uncommon In the summer, soured in
30 hours. while the same quality of
milk held at IS degrees kept sweet
for 80 hours, and at 40 degrees for
1SO hours. These results were OBJ
tained in an experiment carried on
by the dairy division, United States
Department Of Agriculture, to deter
mine the effect Of temperature on the
milk; and the results explain in large
measure why milk which has not been
cooled on the farmland kept cold
often is sour when 1t arrives at its
destination.
The best and quickest way to cool
milk to 80 degrees Fahrenheit is over
surface cooler. Use the coolest wa
ter available, and then set the cans
OF milk In a well-insulated tank filled
with water below 40 degrees Fahren-
heit. A 1O-gallon can Of milk preceded

degrees In 20 minutes.
The use Of surface cooler is es-
pecially necessary when the time be-
tween milking and shipping is short.
II warm milk is run over q surface
cooler, and then set in tank of wa
ter cooled with ice to 40 degrees
Fahrenheit or below, it should not be
difficult to cool milk to so degrees
within an hour after 1t leaves the COW.
Because preceding with surface
cooler is not practiced and ice is not
put into the cooling tank before the
milk, much milk reaches the shipping
station in summer at so high temper
ature that 1t sours on the way to the
city.
On many farms the water used for
cooling milk comes from the general
storage tank or from q spring. The
temperature Of such water when it
reaches the cooling tank is much high
er than when it leaves the we'll or
spring. Well or spring water that has
temperature Of from so degrees to
55 degrees Fahrenheit frequently is
warmed up to 20 degrees or rs degrees

Fahrenheit before it reaches the cool
ing tank.
Even under the best conditions, milk
transported during hot weather usual
ly is several degrees warmer by the
time it reaches the railroad station.
To show the Importance Of protect
ing milk in transit during hot weather,
four ten-gallon cans Of milk cooled to
A degrees Fahrenheit were hauled 10
miles from farm to the railroad sta
tion. Can No. was an insulated type;
No. 2 was an ordinary can covered
with one-inch felt Jacket; No. 8 was
covered with half-inch felt jacket,
and No. 4 was an ordinary. unprotect-
ed can. During the trip, with the air
temperature at 80 degrees Fahrenheit,
the milk In the insulated can rose one
degree in temperature, the milk in the
cans protected with Jackets rose six
degrees, and the milk in the unprotect-
ed can rose 20 degrees. The cans
were then shipped by rail in an ordi-
nary baggage car for more than 1000
miles at an average air temperature
Of about 80 degrees Fahrenheit, to
study the effect on the milk. In the
unprotected can the milk had reached

I So you will see that until 1910 the
money you paid toward the support
Of the government was slipped away
from you SO easily that you hardly
knew anything about 1t. You did not
know that you were paying taxes to
the national government.
Indirect taxation is the most Sc.
ductive form Of raising public rev.
enue. You never came in contact with
the federal government except when you
bought postage stamp. But now you
know it every time you buy drink at
soda fountain, or bottle of medi-
cine, or sand a telegram, or make a
long-distance telephone call, or per-
form any one Of score Of other nor
NAL activities Of daily life. Some
thing must be put in the kitty for the
government. Its annual rakeoff runs
into the billions. You pay it and the
government spends 1t.
But all that part Of the party 10

been eaten and put in the bill. They
must be paid for. 1t is perfectly clear
that in the future by far the greater
part Of the revenue required for con-
Quoting the public business must come
from direct taxes. It is also clear
that the ordinary expenses for run
ming the government will in future
probably exceed four billion dollars a
year. That is a lot of money to take
out Of your pockets, and mine. Hadn't
we better see what is done with 1t, and
whether we can save any Of It? Con-

REMEDY IN YOUR HANDS

] have been asked many times, and
particularly since this series began !:
"Wf,at is the remedy for the condition
and situation Of government business
that you have described? What can
we, the average man or woman with
cut influence, and with no knowledge
Of politics, what can we do about it?''
Well, the answer is that you can do
everything about it. The remedy lies
wholly Within your own hands, as I
have tried to point out in each one
Of the articles that have preceded
this one. It is a remedy easy to pre-
scribe but, I confess, difficult to put
into effect.
Difficult, I mean, in the sense that
you will have to give up time from
your own engrossing private affairs to
pay some attention to what you prob
ably think Of as public affairs and, as
such, not concerning you. The whole
point J have to make Is that public
affairs are your affairs.
I do not suggest that you 60 into
politics. do not suggest that you
attend political meetings. do sug-
gest that you take an interest, a direct
personal interest, in the business Of
government as distinguished from the
politics Of government.
A part Of the remedy you ask for
the conduct Of the business Of govern
ment has been applied when the facts
aud the conditions are spread broad
cast and made known to every tax
rayer. Bad conditions are in way
to be remedied when they become
known.
But some hundreds Of you have
written me and asked: "How can we
help? What can we dot" Let's take q
concrete case.
Congress has committed itself to the
policy Of building twenty first-class
battleships in the next few years.
Armed and equipped, those battleships
will cost in the neighborhood Of $45,-
100000 each. That viii make total
cost Of 5000, 900, 600; thatSis. just short
sf billion dollars.
