t is a well-known fact that milk

enables one, taking reasonable precau-
tions, to pfeserye milk in its naturally.
avvpet condition for a number of addi-
tional hours. — v
'Milk contains' a siigar, known as,
Milk sugar, which Is changed by the
action of the smallest of plant forms,
called bacteria, into lactic acid. When
about one-half of one per cent' of this
acid has been produced;; the milk-curd,
separates and forms a solid mass with
clear acid whey about it. This acid
preserves the curd by1,preventing the
action of bacteria which would, rot the

ly upon the constant care it recede?
'from cow to conatimer. Milk passes
through thrfee agencies-—the producer,
the #aleg, and tiie consumer. If the
first two iuiVg 'dOHe tiveir part clean,;
safe milk will lie delivered, thoroughly
emitted, to the consumer. The con-
sumer's; responsibility begins the mo-
ment the milk is delivered at his dooi>
step. ■ ^ ■ - 1 -
Because milk poured from vessel 'iff
vessel on the street is very liable, to
contamination; from dust manure par-_
tides and germs, milk Is best deliV->
ered in capped bottles. If~ bottled milk
eanhat_Ibe obtained, the housesvife
should try to • have someone In ., th^
family receive the milk in a clean,
scalded utensil, cover It instantly, rind
put It withoiit' defay into the refrigeij^r-
tor, or tlie coldest available place.
Under no circumstances should^an un-
covered pitcher, bowl ,or pan be left
out on the porch to receive bulk milk.
The; vessel, both before and after the
milk, is poured into it, is accessible to

or moi\e days, depending upon the
cleanliness of milking and handling,
because the temperature is low enough
to prevent rapid growth of lactic bac-
teria;-
This -temperature, however, is more
favorable for, the digesting class of
bacteria, which imparts an old, stale
odor to the milk, and renders the milk
partly, unfit for use. If milk is kept
on-ice almost from the time of milk-
ing, there will be but very little devel-
opment of either class of bacteria, and
the milk will be in prime condition
after several days.
For the most rapid cooling of milk,
the following points should be ob-
served r
1. That cold air is better than no
attempt at cooling. !
2. That cold water is more "rapid
than cold air. "
8. That an occasional stirring hast-
ens the cooling process.
4. That ice water is much hiore
rapid than air of the same tempera-
ture. •
5. That a mixture of ice water and
salt is the most efficient cooling agent.
To insure pure milk, free from im-
purities, the utmost care must be taken
in every part of thfe dairy from the
barnyard and stables to the bottling
of the milk. Absolute cleanliness is
essential. Iron milking stools are
recommended and they should be kept
.scrupulously clean.
No. 1 is a good type of sanitary
stool made of metal. The ends of the
pipes used for the legs are filled with
lead, arid there are no corners to-col-
lect dirt.
Noj3. 2 and 4 are similar to No; t,
except that caps are screwed on the
ends of the legs, making them slight-
ly more difficult" to keep clean.
No. 8 serves for both pail and milk
stool. The cover, hoops, bail, etc.,
make it more difficult to keep clean
than the simpler styles,
; ■ No. 5. is. devised so. that. ORe erid
Serves as a receptacle to hold tlie pail
while the milker sits-on the other end.
As in the case of No. 3, this st.fle is
more difficult to keep 4n a sanitary
condition than the simpler forma.
No. 0 is constructed entirely of iron,
galvanized. after being put together.
It is simply constructed, having only
a Single leg. The base, however,, fur-
nishes a larger surface to keep clean.

th'ere is not always time for the prop-
er preparation ofthe. soil, especially
where the crops j^re to be planted
'early, so it is good farm management
to do a part of'this preparation in the
fall. ; j ''
It isn't always the best plan to plow
sandy lands in the fall unless they are
also seeded ",to a cover crop, otherwise
there is apt to much loss from
leaching and erosion. It Is much more
important to put a cover crop on sandy
soils than on heavy" soils, especially
if,the landis not entirely level.
BIRDS SPREAD HOG DISEASES
Crows an<3 Buzzards Tear Flesh of
Dead Animals and Carry Infec-
| tion to Neighboring Farm.
Crows and buzzards are all right
where, they belong, but they have no
place in the hog lot The buzzards
especially-?are most excellent disease
spreaders. Wherever a dead animal
of any kind lies exposed for any
, length of tiriie these scavengers will
soon appear. - They use their strong
claws for tearing the flesh and when
they go to the next place carry pieces
of flesh and a load of infection with
them. "'K an animal dies of some in-
fectious disease and is left for the
buzzards to get at they are sure to
carry the germs to their next banquet;
hall, probably some hog lot 20 miles
away.
Throughout the South they are pro-
tected because of their value as scav-
engers, and where they are found in
abundance hog cholera prevails—if all
the hogs have not already died off.
The only way to fight this form of con-
tagion is to maintain such conditions
that buzzards and crows will not be
attracted.
The safe way to handle any animals
dying of contagious diseases is to burn
them. If buried, dogs may dig them
up and carry germs all over the coun-
try on their feetX 1

for the highway lies .between two
fences 60 feet, more or less, apart
Economy' is attained by building - the
permanent highway one-half as wide,
leaving the balance of the dirt road
for the present as before. x
In railroading it is an axiom that
the capacity of a single track of rail-
way with sufficient switches and uni-
form speed of trains is practically un-
limited. In Guyahoga county, Ohio,
hundreds of miles of permanent coun-
try roads of narrow widths are being
built, using a special type of ...brick
which is produced cheaply in that lo-
cality for the surface, set upon ce-
ment foundations. Future genera-
tions may widen these country auto
/tracks if they so desire. But they
will act more wisely if they invest the
money in an equal number of miles
of new narrow roads of permanent
construction to act as feeders.
A 12-foot permanent road is pass-
able, summer and winter, for the har-
vest loads. The dirt road lies to one
side of the new' trackway just as be-
fore. The country needs thousands
of miles of narrow roads of perma-
nent construction, intersecting as feed-
ers with the wider main lines and
trunk lines. Such feeders need not
be wideivthan 12 feet. TheC,advantages
are plain.- Not only are such roads
passable summer, fall, winter and
spring for the tharvest loads, but they
are also permanent.
And, above all, they are a state and
municipal undertaking, and not a sub-
ject for federal endowment.—-Wall
Street Journal.
WIDE WAGON TIRES FAVORED
Oklahoma Adopted Measure After Con
slderable Study of Road Ques-
tion—Most Economical.
Oklahoma, When it drafted its new
foad legislation, provided a penalty for
using wagons of two tons or more ca-
pacity that do not have at least three-
inch tires. The measure was adopted
after a considerable study of the road
question. Dealers who sell vehicles
which do not come up to ..the state re-
quirement make themselves liable for
a fine of not less than $5 nor more
than $25 for each wagon sold.
TeSts by the federal roads depart-
ment indicate that the three-inch tire
Is the moMt economical for farmers: In-
stead of being: destructive to roads, It
helps to make them better. Narrow-
tired wagons, which are universally
common, are very hard on roads.

perfect working order owing to active
exercise. The indoor worker rushes to
the lunch counter; often: standing while
he bolts a piece of pie 'and washes i
down with a gkigs of anllk or a cupful

■ It would be far wiser for the indoor
worker to fast at noon or take b.ut a
glassful of buttermilk or milk than to
hurry into the stomach a mixture of
illy blended foods.
The normal; secretions of the mouth
are alkaline and as starch is digested in
such a medium it is necessary that all
starchy "foods be properly insalivated.
If a piece of bread and butter ,is, well
divided in the mouth and a spoonful
of acid fruit is added to it the acid
retards the action of the: alkaline.-
These foods should be eaten .alone:
fruit, then starches. . Fatty foods, are
valuable, but mix them with start'h in
the form of pie and trouble begins If,
you have (my digestive weakness. The
fat surrounds the starch grains, pre-
venting the action of the mouth and in-
testinal juices and more trouble en-
sues.
The foods best suited to the indoor
worker are the easily digested foods,
and even milk should be sipped", not'
swallowed as' one does water. Milk
and eggs, and dishes made from them
are best suited to the Indoor Worker

CHEESE DISHES.
There are so many kinds of cheeses
and so many ways of preparing this
delicious food that ther®
is no excuse for lack of
variety.
Italian Cheese With
Rice.—Put a half cupful
of well washed rice to
cook in a pint of boiling
water, cook five, jtpinutes
from the time it boils.
Drain and rinse the rice
In cold water; add a cup-
ful of canned tomatoes,
three-quarters of a cupful of water,
one chopped onion, half a chopped
green pepper, half a teaspoonful of
parsley, three whole cloves and salt
to taste. Cook together until the rice
is soft, then add a half cupful of grat-
ed cheese. Serve steaming hot, as a
main dish ; it will be found to be most
appetizing,
Dream Cakes.—Cut thin slices of rye
bread and trim off all the crusts. But-
ter lightly, spread with grated cheese,
red pepper, a few drops of Worcester-
shire sauce and salt; cover with a sec-
ond slice and then saute both sides in
a little butter. These should, be eaten
at once. Serve with the salad.
Cheese and Apple Fritters.—Slice
tart apples in thin slices, put thin
slices of cheese between, sandwich
fashion and saute in a little butter
until the apple is soft. —
Welsh Rarebit.—Scald t\\p cupfuls of
rich milk, add a tablespoonful of but-
ter and half a teaspoonful of soda.
When this is bubbling stir in two cup-.
fuls of mild cheese, cut in bits, a tea-
spoonful of mustard, moistened with
milk; add cayenne and salt and one
Well beaten egg. When the cheese
melts,--turn it over slices ofi buttered
toast or toasted buttered crackers
which have been softened by dipping
Into a little hot milk. One need not
fear bad dreams if the cheese is simply
•melted. ,
Curried Carrots.—Cut? up in strips as
many carrots as are required for the
family. Put them wet, into a sauce-
pan with a tablespoonful of butter, a
, • f ! 1 ■ y-r-.yr'(i
and cayenne pepper/to ^aste, Cover
the pan closely to.ke.bp.isi all the steam
and cook until tender in their own

added if tnecessary, but the flavor is
much better cooked iu.no water.- fc j

WOULD'HEAL BY COLOR'S AID-
Avoid Red, Green and Brown In Hos
pitals, Is the Advice Given 5
by Artist.
H. Kemp Prosser, who designed the
two Interiors in the French play "La-
bergette" at the Garrick theater,
thinks persons who wish to retain
their vitality and normality in war1
time should avoid certain colors, says
a London correspondent of the New
York Herald. :
"Cardinal red," he said, "is the sym-
bol of murder, hate and cruelty. Sage
green means vileness, and brown de-
cay.
"Lemon yellow, on the other hand,
suggests to persons who are sensitive
to color influence, light and life.* That
2s why I suggest this color should
dominate color schemes in hospitals
and home for wounded soldiers.
"In my rest room at Chelsea for sol-
diers the symbolical colors used were
lemon yellow, mauVe, sapphire, tur-
quoise and blue. A golden piano yfo.3
draped with a lerrfon yellow curtain
on which were embroidered • a do^fe
bearing the emblem of peace, an Egyp-
tian symbol expressing the keys of life
and a white rose, emblem of poWer and
silenee:----Beautlfi]l lamps repeated the
colors blue, mauve and turquoise."
