Purity Of Milk
Protected NOuU
By Scientists
BY KATHRYN ST. JOHN

Careful housewives constantly make
1t q. point to ascertain the quality Of
each item that goes on their tables.
Preparing food for the family is an
extremely important job, for the prop
er selection and preparation of foods
make in large measure for the health
and happiness Of the family.
Milk is the most nearly perfect food,
but it is very delicate one as well.
The keeping qualities Of milk are
slight. Danger from contamination is
ever present. Evaporated milk, which
is double rich because of the removal
of 60 per cent Of the water, is sciences
solution to these conditions.
Safeguarding evaporated milk Is
worked out as perfectly as mans in
genuity has been able to make the
process. From COW to can, the milk
which goes into the evaporated prod
uct is watched every step Of the way.
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1928-02-23

Cows of the dairy herds are guarded
with constant care and are subjected
to regular inspections by veterinary
surgeons. Herds are carefully groomed,
and their yards and barns are kept
scrupulously clean, as are all utensils.
Milk cOndenseries are located in the
heart of the big dairy regions to facili-
tate speedy handling, for this is es-
sential if the milk is to be canned at
"its moment Of maturity" Canvas
covered trucks haul the milk to mar.
ket, thus protecting the product from
contamination on the way. Arriving
at the cOndensery, the milk goes
through tests for acidity, sediment,
flavor and butterfat content before 1t
is accepted.
Experts watch the progress Of the
milk through every step of its way.
1t goes into the evaporating machine;
to the homogenizer, which breaks up
the fat globules so that the milk may
be easily digested by the consumer;
by way Of the almost human filling
machine into sterilized cans then into
the sterilizer, where the cans are sur
rounded by steam and boiling water,
destroying any possible bacteria. In
spectors handle the product as the
last step to see that the canning Job
has been perfectly done. Labelling
and packing follow. The housewife
obtains the milk as fresh and sweet az
when 1t came from the COW.

the money to pay. The Brooklyn
club is celebrated for its frugality,
but it got dough by being that way
and it went for about 100000 in
the Dave Bancroft experiment that
didn't work.
Indians Like Hornsby
Billy Evans says that his Cleve-
land club would lay 100000 on the
line without a tremble for Hornsby,
but he knows that they couldn't get
him out Of the National League. The
magnates are very wary in these
days. Several years ago the YAM
KEGS had chance to sell Wally Pipp
to the Cincinnati Reds for $4,000.
They asked waivers and Philadelphia
claimed him. Ed Barrow and Con-
ME Mack went into huddle and the
circumstances were discussed. Mack
said he guessed Pipp wasn't worth
more than $500 to him and with
drew the claim. Joe Hauser broke
his leg that season apd if Mack had
had Pipp to play first base he might
have won the pennant.
There isn't a chance, of course, for
Hornsby to get away from the Ma
tional League. There are too many
show horses in the American League
now.
Cleveland offered Uhle, Sewell
and $175,0O last winter to the YAM
KEGS for Lou Gehrig and got a laugh.
Later the club offered 100000 to
Washington for Bucky Harris and
was comforted with the admonition
to be yourself.
Would Mean Pennant
Babe Ruth cost the Yankees what
at the time was the staggering price
of $125.00O and he has returned a
dividend Of perhaps 200 per cent on
the investment.
Hornsby wouldn't be any such in
vestment for the Cubs, but it seems
to be agreed among baseball men
that Hornsby ought to make a pen

COACHES PROVE
POPULAR AGAIN
Show Student Bodies the Fall
lacy in Thinking They Were
Through

Chicago, Nov. 1.-(P-It begins
to look as though the two "under
fire" football coaches of the Big
Ten, Burt Ingwersen of Iowa and
DR.. Jack Wilce of Ohio State, can
keep their jobs next season-if they
want them.
Student and Alumni criticism,
which flared with such fury against
the two at the same time last year
when their elevens were door mats
of the Western Conference, has
changed to praise with the tide of
football fortune and now are riding
on what appears to be their highest
crest Of popularity.
It has been a queer and yet SIM
liar turn of events for these two
coaches, whose elevens not only are
indicated but are big favorites to
come through to win the Big Ten
gridiron title this year.
Last Saturday Ingwersen picked
a dramatic setting - the largest
homecoming in Iowa's history to
show his critics that he knew what
he was doing by directing his team
to q glorious victory over Mime
sofas great team. This Saturday,
Wilce, who has announced this is
his last season as football coach,
gets his big chance when the undc-
feated Princeton Tiger invades Ohio

place the tear, high in the race for
national honors.

ASQUAREDEAL
Chicago Cubs Have Evidently

WRIGLEY TALK BUSINESS
Cleveland Would Pay 100000
on Line for Hitter But
Have No Chance
By HENRY l.. FARRELL


The gentlemen who own the Chi
cago and Boston National League
clubs are trying as good business
men to agree on what is fa1r price
for Rogers Hornsby.
For the purpose of getting some
definite starting point for the nego-
tiations it seems that the Chicago
club placed a minimum value. OF
100000 on the National Leagues
greatest batter.
William Wrigley, who owns the
Cubs, was told by his subordinates
that cash alone would not buy the
transfer and that some players
would have.to be thrown in to make
the deal tasteful to the Boston GUS
toners.
Wrigley, according to the story,
instructed his agents to start the
cash conversation at 100000 and
use their own judgment on the
weight Of human stock that had to
go along to boot.
Trio Worth $15O,OOO
The Braves are supposed to have
mentioned casually that Mcguire,
Root and Webb would be treated
kindly in Boston and there is $780,
900 worth of material if you figure
that an untried rookie such as Roy
Johnson is worth $4,000 of Detroit
money.
1t might be figured conservatively
then that in the initial stage of the
bidding Hornsby is at least a $780,
900 ball player and Chicago will not
halt on higher price if Boston will
listen.
Baseball men are practically
agreed that Hornsby would be too
much of a bargain at $250,00O to
get in a day when gifts are no part
of the national pastime.
Dissenting Voice Sounds
There will be one dissenting. voice
because at this time last year a cash
appraisement of less than a dime
was placed upon the great Rajah by
Jack Hendricks, manager of the Gin
cinnati Reds.
When the owners of the Giants de-
cided that the club could prosper and
be happy without Hornsby, Hend-
ricks was summoned from Cincin-
natl and asked how much he would
give for the man.
"Not dime,' Hendricks said. I'm
fact, l wouldn't have him on my ball
club" But Hendricks will admit in
his frank way that he has a great
personal distaste for the player and
those personal prGudices have been
known to operate at the cost of
pennants.
Several years ago the Brooklyn
club threw the baseball world into a
great stomach laugh by offering St.
Louis $250,000 for Hornsby. It was
worth laugh at that time but Will
bert Robinson insists that the club
made the offer in good faith and had
