Chappell ‘writes The Bulletin as follows regard- ing milk: The production and distribution of milk and milk products engage the attention of no small part of our pop- ulation. The use of milk is general and not limited to any class or local- ity; it is regarded as a necessity by almost every family, and for this rea- son information regarding it is import- ant. In the northern and eastern sec- tions of the United States dairying is carried on very extensively; in large parts of these sections it is the chief occupation of the farmers. In the south and west the number of cows is rapidly increasing. The United Si country in the world. In 1399 the an- nual value of our dafry products was | estimated to exceed six million dollars. and the value of the mileh cows in the same five hundred million dollars. There arp about nine- teen million cows in this country, or about one to every four inhabitants. It is estimated that the milk from five million cows annually consumed as milk in the United States, the aver- age being about 27 1-2 gallons per year to each person; this means about 00d-sized tumblerful each day. The t thing to be borne in mind is that k is_naturally a pure product. If - milk is found unclean, unwhole- some, or disproportionated in its prop- er parts, the chances are that it is not the fault of the cow. In such cases the presumption is that Some person is to blame, either the one who cares for the cow or the one who handles the milk. If those who buy milk used proper care they would have little trouble in alyays -rocuring a good clean article. t is possible to produce milk free from. harmful contaminaltion, and if pure milk is delivered the dairyman or the dealer ma: responsible and it is the duty of the customer to report it. When the mil- man knows thal his customers will not accept poor or unclean milis, he will stop offering it. Pure be in its naturale state, it product. Thundersto: 8, warm temperature, and other condi tions known to exist when milk is most liable to give trouble, have been blamed for its changes. ~Any milk showing a sediment suspicious. Particles of dirt are a sign that germs are apbundant. Thus dirty milk may be dangerous as well as disgusting. The dirt in milk consists mostly of particles of dust, manure, and hairs which fall into the pail from the body of the cow during milking. Milk from unhealthy or unthrifty co or that which has been handled by ick per- sons is dangerous, as it may Tontain infectious germs or foreign sub- stances. Typhoid fever, scarlet fever, diph- theria, and consumption (or tubercul- osis) have been spr by milk. The proper care of milk after it has been delivered to the consumer is a matter of great importance. It desirable to have it in the best po: ble condi- tion for use, and it is not desirable to blame the milkman for things for which he is not in the least respon ble. Milk, therefore. should be kept in a cool place, free from odors, and in a perfectly clean vessel of suitabl material.

It is not uncommon to see cows covered with so much dust that the color of the backs cannot be seen; and th flan hips and sides are sometimes plastered with layers of manuge. When the work of cleaning the cows is neglected, it is immossi- ble to keep milk clean when milking. Every milch cow should be curried and brushed daily, and the udder and lower parts wiped with a damp cloth i befor 2 Here is where the most of the acteria comes from. The 1 contamination occurs after the milk has left the udder. In spite of careful milking, dirt, particles of dust, hairs, even bits of manure from the flan or udder of the cow, may fall into the milk. All of these things carry more or less bacteria contamina- tion. Dry dust of the stable floor contains great numbers and varieties of bacteria. This dust soon settles, and an open milk pail catches a large amount. But the contamination does not end here, The pails or the cans may not be properly cleaned, and the corners or seams may hold small par- ticles of dirt or sourt milk. These impurities are full of bacteria, which quickly find its way into the milk. As milk is one of the food products we should be very careful where we buy | our milk, as I have said, before, select a good, clean milkman, Pure milk at 8 cents per quart is equal to one pound of beef at 18 cents a pound. On the average, each per- son in this country consumed about twenty gallons of milk a year, or that each family of five used about a quart of day We must admit that the best food for infants is milk, and most healthy babies thrive on good cow’s milk or milk simply modified, therefore we cgnnot be too careful about r milk supply in our city.

It was agreed to make Sunday, March 3th, a county Y. M. C. A. day by ar- ranging for as many meetings or con- ferences as possible in the towns where there is no association. The Norwich members of the committee will look fter the towns in the northern half | of the county, and the southern half will be taken care of by the New Lon- don mbers. State Secretary Bates ntends to carry out this idea in all the counties of the state, but may arrange to have their meetings on Sunday, March 20th.

Chatfield of the Sixth was mortally wounded at Fort Wagner July 19, 1863, and died Aug. 9.
