Milk Talk No, 2.
: CLEANLINESS
As milk is the natural food for the
young, containing within itself all
the requirements of the body, and
as any adulteration is injurious to
the system, (either from absorp
tion or otherwise) therefore . the
health of the consumer, and espec
ially", the young, depend . to a
great extent upon those who handle
the milk. And as there are so
Inany ways in handling the cow as
well as the milk after being drawn
from the cow.v Every - consumer
should visit the place from' whence
he gets his milk (no matter if it is
surrounded by a high board fence)
and see how the cow and the milk
are handled before using it as a
food for the baby. . ' '

they know it, without any assurance from
me.

WHAT IS TO BECOME Of HIM
(Continued from Page U
That little white bundle of feline trust
fulness has been his sole, comfort and
cheer during the sixty five days which
Johnnie Bartlebauah has been confined in
the county jail.
During this time the father, though re
siding at Elgin, only twenty one miles
distant, has never called to see hie son,
nor has he even so much as written to
the lonesome and frightened boy,' or in
any other way expressed any desire to
Know how he was getting along. Johnnie
did not expect his father to do otherwise,
but he still had faith in his mother, and
promptly wroteto her notifying her of his
situation. The mother answered the
letter and expressed her sorrow for him.
Though this letter brought tears to his
eyes, it was a source of great relief to
him and he held many friendly conversa
tions with the cat in which he expressed
confidence in the power of his mother to
assist him. He answered this letter nH
with great pains and care explained his
true condition and then waited for the
reply. He is still waiting. The mothtr
who resides in Walla Walla, has other
children to interest ner ana juotinie n
become a thing of second consideration
Johnnie had great faith in his mother and
eacn morning when the sheriff would ao
pear ai me ceil door and announce "No
letter for you today, Johnnie", the picture
of despair which was depicted upon the
ooy s pale, wan face was sufficient to
causa the offloer to turn away to hide a
tear, and wonder, what sort of a mother
was Johnnie's. Johnnie would turn and
pick up the little white kitten. his only
friend, and burying his face in its soft
fur, murmur "It's all right Lazy. Mama
is busy, but you bet we will get a letter
tomorrow ana then things will look bet
ter.". Johnnie still sits in his 'iron bound
cage, wondering what the judge will do.
Hit training has been tuch that to use his
own wordt he "don't care muoh anyhow,
but I wonder what will become of Lazy."
A HUNTINGTON ADVOCATE;
For twelve years I lived In Idaho, at
Boise, the capitol of the state, and know
well the conditions before the ballot was
given to women, and the conditions since
women have taken an active part in the
political questions of the-' state. I have
studied these conditions carefully, and
have no hesitation in affirming that from
every point of view there has been a
marked improvement in handling our po
litical problems.
, Toda neither of the old parties dare
nominaurror an important offlce in the
municipality or the state, a man whose
life is reputed to be impure or immoral.
I hey have learned that the women can
not be held in line, evenjwith the party
whip. And before the women were vot
ers the immorality of a man was, "ho good
reason, to either of the parties, why he
should not be nominated for office,
. Since the baU6t has been given to our
women, they are more intelligent on the
social, economic, industrje.1, and political
questions, oerore our people, and I believe
they vote more conscientiously than the
men.- '. . ..'
.The polling places on election day are
quiet and orderly, and women, , even the
most? fastidious, find absolutely nothing
objectional where they thought it would
be so disagreeable and trying. : . v
In Idaho after several years of experi
ence we are eminently pleased with
Woman Suffrage. - " ' - .
