Jc'roin England we have a report of a
recent case of serious poisoulug by a
morning draught of milk. Tpou ex

from which it was taken uas foul

growth and some bacteria adhering to
tho Joints, which were entirely filled
up by n solid muss of decomposing
constituents." The (rife lesson of this
Is tho necessity for something more
oU'eetlvo (ban a "slight perfunctory
rinse." Dr. Muter, who gives the de
tails of the cum), advises all consumers
to look to tho cans In which the milk
they buy Is carried, and If they have

In hot weather and In .September. It
lays its eggs usually where the band

often, too, on the board-, which hold

Is tunned "loose or porous," they work
Into the eheoiu rapidly, and If not ar
rested will work Into the center and
through the cheese, spoiling It. They
require air, ami this fact is taken ad
vantage of by tho dairyman, in cover
ing tho surface of tho cheese with a
groused papor, plastering it down
kocurulyou the cheese, or on the hole
where they are working. This brings
them to the surface, when they may
bo removed.
