The 18 months old bull "TEDDY"
weighs J000 pounds. He is a pure
bred Holstine of the best milk strain.
Stockmen cannot do better than get
a start of this kind of cattle. Service

The secret of successful canning
lies not In the brand of "Preserving
Powders" used, but in complete and
absolute sterilization. "Preserving
Powders" are dangeroua when used
by inexperienced people. Science and
sanltatlou have forever condemned
tbe shiftless methods that require the
use of powders. For centuries even
the scientists believed that the abso-
lute exclusion of the air free from
germs be freely admitted, and the food
will not be afTected. For example, a
glass Bask filled with meat and stop-
pered with a plug of raw cotton is
placed In a sterilizer and heated until
all germ life is destroyed. The meat
will not decompose even though the
air passes freely in and out of the
fact is that It is not the air, but the
How to Prevent Typhoid Fever
When one is compelled to live
in a house or in a neighborhood
where typhoid fever prevails. In-
should make it his infallible rule
to eat and drink only such foods
as have been recently heated to
above the scaldii.g temperature.
Salads should be avoided, and
water and milk should always be
scalded before use. Fruits should
be pared. The typhoid fever or-
ganism is very susceptible to heat,
and slight boiling or even a good
strong scalding is sufficient to
destroy it. So far as possible the
house fly should be screened out
of the house, while any that gain
access should be diligently pur-
sued and destroyed. A bit of
wire netting attached to a wooden
handle is a convenient weapon. If
these measures were consistently
practiced a large part of the now
generally prevalent, typhoid fever
could be prevented, especially if
in conjunction with these meas-
ures the discharges of the sick
were consistently and thoroughly
disinfected before being thrown
out.
pasture in August.
A little early handling will
make it easy to oreak the heifer
to milk when she first comes fr^sh.
For warts on cows' teats put
on some castor oil every time you
milk and watch them disappear.
Our separator has about doubl-
ed the amount and quality of the
butter and feeding value of the

spray the cows and horses. It ts
the best thing to drive away the
flies we have ever found.—h. W.
Garrison.
Flies and a hot sun are not con-
ducive to good calf growth. The
shade or a cool shed through the
heat of the day are better than so
much grazing.

Is Altered while passing through the*
cotton stopper, the germs becoming

The germs that cause the decom-
position sof food are bacteria, yeast
and molds. These are of a very-low
onler of plant life and must feed on
the foods intended for the higher
plants and animals. These little para-
sites are to tiny that they cannot be
aeen by the naked eye. A vast num-
ber of them can hold a "maasmeeting"
on a pinhead. The yeast is easily
killed by heat, and the molds are not
particularly fond of freeh canned veg
etables, but the bacteria we have with
us always, in the air, in the water,
in the can, ou the cover. They are on
the spoons, and in the vegetables.
They do not object to heat, except in
very extreme degrees. Some of them
can even live witijwit air. They de-
light to feed on meat, milk, veget-
ables, etc. All they need is tempera-
ture. light, moisture and food. The
greatest achievement of these little
plant* seems to be the amazing repid-
tty with which they reproduce. When
they flnd a favorable medium, one bac-
terium will produce about twenty mil-
lion in tw enty-four hours. Bacteria
reproduce by the parent dividing into
two parts, or by forming .spores lor
seeds i. The bacteria are easily de-
stroyed by boiling, but the spores are
not destroyed unless the boiling Is
continued for a long time.

ning is to get a good brand of fruit

COLD STORAGE FOR FARM
"Could you inform me about what
would be the cost of a cold storage on
a small scale for farm use for eight
or ter armers?"—VVm. Curtis, Noble
County, Oklahoma.
The cost of a cold storage building
would depend upon the size installed,
which would, of course, depend upon
the demands upon it. As an estimate
of the cost of such a building, I
would say that a concrete storage
plant, one story high, and 20x40 feet
with cement floor and ceiling and 3u00
cubic feet of storage room would cost
approximately $1,200.00. An eight-ton
compressor and refrigerator equip-
ment complete with insulation for the
storage mom would cost approximate-
ly $2,506.Oo. You would also be
obliged to furnish power for oper-
ating the compressor. A twelve-
horse power gasoline engine would
cost about )400.00. This would fur-
nish you with a first class equipment
with a total cost of approximately
$4,000.00. Of course, smaller equip-
ment could be installed for less
money.
I would suggest the following peo-
ple as parties from whom you could
get quotations of such equipment as
you may desire:

There are many other firms, and by
referring to a Refrigerator Journal
which you would probably flnd in your
local Ice plant, you would obtain the
names of many other companies with
whom you might correspond.—Roy C.
