The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1927-10-07

Youthful America is witnessing its
mighty industries take on the robes
of maturity. Last year the telephone
observed it's 50th anniversary. This
year the American pioneer in steam
transportation, the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, celebrates its Tooth birthday.
This first railroad passes into its
second century without having changed
either its corporate name or its funda-
mental organization since receiving its
charter from the State of Maryland in
1927, the first legislative grant to op-
crate railroad for the public handling
of passengers and freight and the same
under which the Baltimore and Ohio
still operates.
Communication and transportation
have always been closely allied. To-
day nearly two-thirds of the railroad
systems of the United States dispatch
their trains and control their far-fung
lines by telephone, while their patrons
reserve accommodations by the same
means and enjoy telephone commuIi-
catiau from crack limited trains out Of
the sSation.
This dependence of the railroad upon

A tiny newborn babe in Brooklyn,
N. Y. which would have been put in
an incubator to save it, had the family
been able TO afford the incubator, was
saved instead by hot-water bottles,
an electric heater and a little ingenu-
ity. A clothes basket was lined with
paper, which is good heat insulator.
Then row of rubber hot-water
bottles was set around the inside of
the basket. A bed of blankets was
then laid in and the baby placed on
1t and well covered. This proving in
adequate, an ordinary household cleo
trio heater was set nearby and its
heat directed against the side of the
basket. This turned the basket into
a first-class incubator" The tiny
baby is thriving.

Protecting Plants

Fifteen states-California. Colorado,
Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Illi-
MOS, Maryland, Massachusetts,, Mime
sofa, New York. Pennsylvania, Yer
mont, Virginia, Washington and
Wisconsin-have passed laws for the
protection of their native plants. In
other states bills along similar lines
have been introduced, but thus far
have failed to pass. Unfortunately,
such laws are difficult or impossible to
enforce. and they have had little effect
on the situation.

Springtime is the constructive sea-

INSPECTORS TO
MAKE SURVEY OF
VALLEY DIARIES

The Bureau of Dairy Control of
the State Department of Agriculture
has recently placed a squad of in
spectors in Imperial Valley for the
purpose of a survey of milk and
cream conditions and improvements
of quality. This campaign IS in
charge Of Guy p. Mayo, senior in
spector of Los Angeles and former
ly inspector at El Centre. He will
be assisted by f. H. Biles of Stock
ton and w. M. Powers of Ell Centre.
Biles has spent four years as in
spector of this district and Mr..
Powers nearly one year. c. A. Hall,
deputy county health officer of
Brawley, will also assist.
IN commenting upon the project
Mayo says, I'm order to bring out
certain points of our work we must
at times intensity it, Our great OBJ
ject is to secure high quality milk
and cream by teaching the dairy
man how to produce it. This sort
of work is based upon platform
grading of milk and cream. One of
our men will be assisted by G. a.
Hall in grading the product as it
arrives at the creamery. Others
will at once visit all dairics show
ing a low grade milk or cream, and
complete written instructions given
for improved quai::y. This will con
tinue until all low grade products
are eliminated. A. times we are
forced to take drastic action, whore
dairvmen continue to ship poor
products. These cases, however, are
not large in number. Most dairy
men can readily understand the need
of high grade milk and cream in
order that the best price and mar
ket may be secured for the butter
or other manufactured product.
First grade milk or cream is hand
led with less loss in the plant, as
well as at the dairy, and the fin
ished product is worth more. The
dairyman receives a larger part of
this increased value
DIR. J. j. Frey, chief of the Bu-
reau of Dairy Control, who initiated
this grading program for Imperial
Valley expects it to continue until
all milk and cream has shown
marked improvement under intens-
i've grading. The work will then be
carried on by the bureau s local in
spector, and the deputy county
health officer.

WATCHING THE
