CLEAN MILK
LOWERS CHILD'S
DEATH RATE


New York.-Nathan Straus, origin
ator of pasteurized milk depots, urges
the extension of this system to
smaller towns. He shows that with
the development of milk pasteuriza-
tion in this city the death rate among
children under five years has dropped
from 92.2 per thousand, in 1892, to
24.7 per thousand last year. Mr.
Straus established his first milk depot
in 1893, and in 1920 there were 297
in Sc cities, and their number is in
creasing. In connection with the de-
pots, prenatal work and the care OF
children, including proper feeding, are
taught to mothers.

This is one of the political move

This is one of the political move
ments that has appeared and disap-
peared within the past several
months. 1t admitted the communists,
and they quickly strangled the trust
full politicians. The communists even
captured the name, and were known
for a short time as the federated far
mer-labor party. Then the commun-
lists moved to st. Paul, where they
strangled the recent farmer-labor
conference.
With the refusal of Senator La Fol-
lette to be associated with the COM
munists, they nominated a ticket
which has since been ditched, and Fos-
ter and Gitlow, avowed red-shirt
boys, substituted.
The communists have clear record
of wrecking everything they touch.

fact, six states are evenly di-

will sure cast it's vote for
Fighting Bob.
Each state has only one
vote if it is thrown in the
house, and it takes 25 votes
to choose winner.
If the House cannot decide
by March 3rd-then what
happens?
The Senate must then
choose between the two high
est candidates for the Vice
Presidency. In fact the
Senators elect a Vice Presi-
dent who acts as President
while the House again tries
to choose one in the next
Congress.
Some say Bryan may be
elected. A landslide for any
one candidate may shake up

What's going to happen?
That is the question that is

ner? Maybe they have not
decided on which one of
their two riders they will
place their final bets.

HANDLE FRUITS WITH CARE:
Should Be Carefully Washed in
Several Waters.

Vegetables and fruits that are to be
pared with great care. Most people
will agree that such fruits as apples,
oranges, and pears may be considered
clean if they are picked from the trees
in the orchard far enough from the
road to escape dust. If they drop to
the ground on clean grass, they may
still be eaten without much risk, al
though there will be more chance for
their being contaminated with disease
producing bacteria. There may some
times be danger from poisons used in
spraying fruit. All such fruits and all
fresh fruits and vegetables, which
come from the market should be thor
oughly washed in several waters;
apples and other large fruits, with I'M
broken skins may be safely washed
with soap.
Dried fruits should be particularly
well washed, warns the United States
Department Of Agriculture. If they
are then put into a warm oven to dry,
they will absorb the water that clings
to them and thus be softened and i'm
proved in taste. Dipping in boiling
water kills many, if not all, of the
bacteria and other organisms that are
likely to cling to fresh fruit and does
not injure the flavor of many kinds
even when they are kept immersed for
seconds. For instance, grapes,
apples, pears, peaches and plums, are
injured by this treatment, and I'M
strawberries are often improved
by it. A wire frying basket for hold
ing the fruit will be found a con-
venience.
