Trie recent outbreak of typhoid fe m fn Portland, traced to an infected milk supply and causing two deaths, brinpi sharply to public attention the ftcity for eternal rigiianca over milk ftippliea. Any community which hat a sent of decency and of civic prid will endeavor to protect its miik supply ao that its citizens may b assured of wholesome and sani tary milk. Is your milk supply safe guarded? Does your town or city have a miik ordinance? Is it en forced? These are questions of the greatest importance to your health and to the health of your family. The importance of milk both as a food and as a conveyor of disease cannot be too great y stressed. Milk is the only standard article f diet obtained from animal sources con sumed in its raw ute. It contains, furthermore, all the essential ele ments of a well-balanced diet both for children and for adults. Yet ev eryone knows how easily miik spoils, how readily it decomposes, and how difficult it is to obtain and deliver it is a clean, fresh, and sats factory condition. A striking characteristic of an infected milk is the absence of any signs whereby infection may be recognised. The miik may be per fectly norma) in appearance and in taste, yet be full of typhoid or diph theria grenr. &. Miik usually becomes infected from human sources. Contamination may occur at any point on the route from the farm to the consumer, but it most frequently takes place at the dairy. This is particularly true of typhoid fever. Investigation of many milk borne epidemics of typhoid fever has shown the sources of the infection to be typhoid carriers. A carrier is a person who, sot ill himself, harbors the disease germs and may transmit the disease to others. Laboratory testa alone can detect carriers. All persona, therefore, engaged in the handling of milk or milk products, should be tested for carriers. This test should be made compulsory. From 1900 to 1S20 there were re ported in the United States 151 milk borne typhoid epidemics; of these, 111 were reported between 1900 and 1907. It is significant that in the period from 1907-1910, during which pasteurization was widely adopted by the miik industry, there was a most decided drop in the number of epi demics of typhoid fever, scarlet fever, and diphtheria from milk, and also a great reduction in the infant mort ality in cities where pasteurization was established. Pasteurization, prop erly performed, meant subjecting the milk to a temperature not lower than 142 degrees Fahrenheit for not lees than 30 minutes, and unless bottled hot should be promptly cooled to 60 degrees or lower. Improper pas t2urization leads to a false sense of fcecurity, and may be equally danger ous If not more so than raw milk. Insist on a safe milk supply. This can be readily obtained if the fol lowing essentials are adhered to: 1. Healthy stock. 2. healthy and careful milkers. 8. Only covered or hooded milking pails should be used. 4. Sterile containers only should be used. 6. The milk should be properly re frigerated. 6. If pasteurized, the milk should be held at 142 degrees F for not less than 30 minutes, and then promptly cooled. "but I did not catch your name.1 "My name," replied the other, "is Burtoa."

AvtocaCteh.,' FIGl'RES BKI.Y CLAIMS. Department of Commerce figures on exports and imports of textiles put a crimp in the claim of the free trad era that the protective tariff of 1!22 would ruin our foreign trade. Exports of textiles for February aggregated $'.14,213,000, as compared with $ti'J, 630.000 a year ago. For the eight months of this fiscal year, exports of textiles amounted to IH44.735.000, as compared with (645,722,000 a year afo. Imports of textiles for Febru ary totaled (85,306,000, as against IV3.574.000 last year. For the eight months imports were $805,241,000, as compared with $685,842,000 last year. Hxports increased, imports decreased. What becomes of the free trade claim that "we cannot sell unless we buy" or "if we buy less we will Bell less"? During February and also during the last eight months of this fiscal year, the United States bought less textile goods than a year ago, but sold more textile goods than a year ago.
