Contact with the germ is made
in one of two ways—by drinking
raw or improperly pasteurized milk
or bating milk products of infected
animals, or by handling infected
cows, goats or pigs or their car-
cassek. To pasteurize milk In the
home, heat it to 165 degrees F. in
the top of a double boiler and hold
at that temperature for 20 seconds,
stirring constanUy. Cool rapidly to
SO degrees F. by setting the milk
container in cold water or ice and
stirring until cool. Rapid cooling of
heated milk improves flavor.
Persons who work with livestock

particularly careful of cuts and
