SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY DE-. Q. a. .. ReedN

VoU will be confronted with
j arguments against the general
pasteurization OF milk by the
trade. In the majority OF instan-
ces little investigation will show
that these arguments emanate
from interested quarters. But
taking them as they come and
considering them on their merits.
these stock arguments generally
will be found failacious.
The first of these indictments
is that the pasteurization of milk
by the dairyman is a cloak for
stale and dirty milk. It's advo-
Gates seem to assume that the
dairyman only pasteurizes stale
milk. Actually, he treats the very
same milk which he would other
wise sell as raw. Moreover, any
souring of the milk is not in the
least disguised by pasteurization.
The cleaner the milk, the better
it will taste and the longer it will
keep after pasteurization. and
stale and dirty milk Is at once
recognizable. whether il has been
pasteurized or not. Since adopt
ing pasteurization, no distributor
has relaxed HIS efforts to produce
as clean milk as possible.
The second accusation is that
the process does not destroy with
certainty the tubercle bacillus.
Experiments prove that the bacil.
lus is invariably destroyed when
milk containing ii has been uni
formly heated to las degrees, re-
tanned at that temperature for 80
minutes, and then rapidly cooled
to a low temperature. Moreover,
many other tests have shown that
even IL these conditions are not
fully satisfied, the bacillus is
nevertheless destroyed. Some
have succeeded, even where when
the difficulty of keeping a large
volume of milk at uniform tenn
perature was not recognized. DIR.
r. G. White, of the Lister Insti-
tute lancet, January 80. 1920.
using a temperature of 145 de-
grees for 80 minutes, with no
after-cooling. succeeded in com.
pletely destroying the tubercle
bacillus in milk taken from cows
with tuberculous udders, milk
al LAAACAdAAy contaminated WITH Is
tuberculosis cultures, and milk to
which ground.up Gaseous tuber-
culous glands had been added.
This covered the possibility that in
naturally-infected milk the bacillus
might be protected by a coating
OF pus or mucus.
AS for the third argument, that
pasteurization destroys the vita.
minis. the only vitamin that can
be affected by such a low tenn
perature is anti-scarbutic vitamin
c. To begin with, even raw milk
has very little of C in it, and
Professor Drummond has shown
that what destruction does take
place Is almost undetectable by
the most careful methods. The
fact is that every infant should
be given little anti-scarbutic,
such as orange juice, every day,
for test animals develop scurvy
even when fed on raw milk from
CRASHED cows.
If in another generation or
two we evolve a really clean

healthy animals, maintained tuber.

The Opening Game,

Tomorrow is the big day, the day for
which thousands of WashingtonianS
have been waiting and the day that
comes only once year. In short, the
first major league base ball game of the
1928 season will be officially started,
with President Coolidge throwing out
the first ball. at three o'clock tomor-
row afternoon. The usual first-game
band will be on hand to add gayety to
the occasion, and more than twenty
thousand persons will probably be en-
Sconced in the commodious stands
when the umpire calls PLAY balll"
Conceded to have one of the strong
est pitching STATS in the league, the
1923 edition of the Washington team Is
determined to make fight for high
honors. Except for laSt-minute
change in plans by Manager Harris,
new faces will be seen at first base,
shortstop and center field. Sammie
West, who is expected to I'LL Iris
Speakers shoes in center is new
conner only in the sense that he played
so few games last year that the fans
have not become thoroughly acquainted
with him Grant Gillis seems to have
won the shortStop berth from Bobbie
Reeves. while George Sisler, one of the
greatest batsmen Of all time, is slated
TO start the season at first base instead
of the graceful Joe Judge.
The Washington team will put up a
smart and aggressive brand Of base ball
That much is assured. Whether the
necessary batting punch can be de-
veloped to compete with teams Of
greater offensive power is something
that only the future will tell Rice,
Goslin. Sisler, Tate and Ruel are proven
stars with the bat. They will hit for
good percentage in any league, West,
however is still of undetermined batting
quality. Harris. Gillis and Bluege are
timely. but not consistent batters.
Although at least three other teams
in the league carry greater punch in
their line-ups than Washington. the
smart local team with good pitching
and fair batting will make itself de-
cided factor in the race. 1t may not
win the pennant. but it viii be well up
toward the front, and with a few breaks
may romp home in the lead. Tomor-
row is the day. Play ball
