KEEP THE MILK CLEAN.
Four 8mpls, Inexpensive Precautions
Which Any On Can Observe.
The Virginia esteriment station has
found by actual experiment that ths
number of bacteria In milk can be
greatly reduced. I'bls Is of considera
ble Iniiwrtnuce. lssanse It reduces the
liability of contamination from disease
bacteria as well ns those that cause
souring, disagreeable odors, etc.
Hy count It was found that by sprin
kling the bedding at raw so ns to pre
vent the bacteria from arising the per
celitnin' In the ml!k wits reduced M
er vent. A reduction of "J."i per cent
was made hy using the closed pall In
milking as compared with using the
open pall.
When the flanks of the cows were
moistened ,and sismged lfore milk
ing the per cent of bacteria was re
duced Sit per cent. Hy discarding the
first four stripping from each teattbo
liactei'la were further reduced.
These four precautions, sprinkling
the bedding, moistening the flanks of
the cow. using n closed pall and dis'
carding the tlrst four stripping, may
lie practiced without appreciable ex
pense, and they greatly redure the lia
bility of contamination.

Law Points For the Farmer.
A farmer In Pennsylvania is legally
obliged to fence both sides of a public
road running through bis farm. A le
gal fence may be of wire, with or
without barbs.
The Kami Journal says wood cut on
the farm Is personal property and
would not pass under a deed as the
woodouse would In which It was pil
ed, In the absence, of course, of any
speciul mention being made in the
deed.
Where a seller Is not the manufac
turer ot an article sold nnd the buyer
has .nn opportunity of examining It
there is no implied warranty. In the
absence of fraud, that It shall be fit for
the purposes for which It Is bought,
and tinloss there Is an express war
ranty the doctrine of caveat emptor
(let the buyer guard himself) applies.

"Upon the lease of a farm by A. to

mounted on wheels which A. bad used
on the farm, moving it from place to
place to punfp wntor, nothing having

Farm Journal. The answer made Is:
"No. B. would not be entitled to the

Building a Reputation
WHEN the first I II C tractor was planned,
the idt:a was to have the new tractor
fit into its work just as one well-cut
gear meshes into another. All conditions of
farm work were taken into consideration
dusty fields, gritty sand, tounh clay, and tougher
sod. There must be protection from flying
dirt. The power of the enpine must not be
wasted. " The machine must be so simple that
anyone could manage it. The need of repairs
should be infrequent, and repairs easily made.
This was the plan behind the building of
IHC Kerosene-Gasoline Tractors
How well the plan worked out is shown by the
reputation that IHC tractors enjoy; a reputa
tion built upon a steadily growing" knowledge
tmonp; farmers of the good work done by I H C
tractors. The engine has no rapidly moving
parts or delicate adjustments to be affected by
, dust, dirt, and grit. The simple gearing trans
mitsa large percentage of engine power to the
drawbar. I H C tractors are in use everywhere,
in the hands of many men who are in no wray
"machine wise."
The value of an I H C tractor to a busy farmer
lies in its many uses and its reasonable cost.
It furnishes power for plowing, seeding,
harvesting, threshing, hauling and for many
kinds of belt and drawbar work. I H C tractors
are now made in 12, 15, 20, 25, and 45-horse
power sizes, to suit conditions everywhere.
I H C general purpose engines for use in shop,
mill, and factory, and on the farm, are made
in sizes from 1 to 50-horse power.

icfurmation, or, write
