Mrs. L. lives on a farm and has two
cows. The COWS show by the tuber-
culin test that they are free from tuber-
culosis, and the most scrupulous care
Is taken in the milking and handling
Of the milk. Two young mothers from
the city who are boarding with her

babies because 1t is not paSteurized.

Is 1t necessary?
II the cows are free from tubercu-
losis and no diseased person Is han

sils are scrupulously clean, the unpas-
teurized milk should be all right for the
children. Mrs. L. However, occasion
ally cows do get tuberculosis in be-
tween tests, so II might be wisest to
pasteurize the milk
Pasteurization may be done at home
by placing the bottle containing the
milk in a pan Of water. with the water
coming to the height Of the milk in the
bottle. Bring the water nearly to a
boil and set aside for 30 minutes then
take the bottle out, rapidly cool. and
keep cool.
Pasteurized milk loses none Of its
food value. with the exception of part
of the vitamins which protect against
scurvy. This Is only of importance
when it is given to babies who are
on an exclusive milk diet. PaSteuri-

Uses for Lemons.

After making lemonade don't throw
away the seeds Of the fruit. They are
excellent for cleaning discolored glass
ware If they are used with salted water.
When the half lemons have been
squeezed for lemonade they can still be
used for whitening the teeth or re-
moving stains from hands, and IL they
are dipped lightly in salt they viii re-
move the stains from brass.
To get the most from a lemon, 1t
should be rolled and well heated before
being squeezed. It win then yield much
more juice. The peel will keep O long
time If it Is well dried and kept In an
alright receptacle. 1t can then be used
for favoring cakes. Place half lemons

Stephen Barnson of Sacramento

After investigating several sub
divisions which California realty
promoters are selling TO California

vigorous in denunciation of some
of the schemes.
Both spoke at the meeting of the
Chamber Of Commerce, expressing
appreciation of the efforts which
the Chamber is making 10 protect

The statement was made that

Mr.. Barneson paid a compliment
to Las Vegas for its sane and or

ulative and unsound schemes such
as some unScrupulous California
real estate agents have been feed
ing to the public upon the re-

of fact they are miles from any

DEATH CLAIMS
LOIS WOODARD

The Methodist Church was
crowded this afternoon with
friends who had come to say a
last farewell to little Lois Wood
ard, the ten year old daughter Of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. Warren Wood
ard, who passed away at the Las
Vegas Hospital Sunday afternoon,
after an illness of nearly a month.
Just week ago today Lois
condition was so much improved
that she was allowed 10 go home
but after two days complications
set in which made 1t necessary for
her to return to the hospital Her
condition grew rapidly worse, un-
til 1t became apparent Sunday
morning that she was beyond
medical assistance.
Brain fever is given as the dir
ect cause of death, and her con-
dition was further aggravated by
intestinal complications.
The services were conducted by
the Rev. Reynolds, pastor Of the
Methodist church, anQ beautiful
music was furnished BY Miss Do
rothy Whitmore, accompanied by
Mrs. Roscoe Thomas on the vio-
lin and Mrs Roy w. Martin at
the piano.
Lois was born in Las Vegas
February l, 1918, and had lived
most o. her life here she was
in the Sixth A. grade, and popu-
lar with her playmate3 in the
grammar school. Her schoolmates
were dismissed this afternoon in
order that they might attend the
funeral, and pay their last re-
spects.
The crowded church and
wealth of flowers bore silent tri-
butte to the love and esteem il
which the little girl was held.
The sympathy of the entire
community goes out to Nj. and
Mrs. Woodard and the rest of the
family in their severe loss.
Funeral arrangements were in
charge Of the Palm Funeral Home.
