YOUR MILK SUPPLY
IS IT SAFE?
Trxrm Sut Board of Hwhk.
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.

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.
