stated in a few short rules as follows Milk which Is consumed in a raw condition must be drawn only from cows which are healthy As soon as the milk is drawn i from the cow it should be cooled to 50 degrees or lower and be kept at that temperature until consumed j All pails strainers dippers milk bottles pitchers etc which come in contact with the milk niuet be thoroughly washed and preferably steamed or be rinsed after washing I in a chloride solution which baa been j found to be one of the best germi cides Milk should not be exposed to the air any longer than absolutely necessary as this seeds the milk with a fresh lot of germs This means the keeping of milk in a closed sel and not In an open dish Left over milk from meals should not be put into general supply as this causes the whole lot to spoil 6 Left over milk from the sick room should be pasteurized or de stroyed as It may spread disease Milk at all times and In all places should be kept clean and cool Prof H Dean Ontario

varieties at the proper time Seed potatoes somewhat immature which have been produced In a cool cli mate and which comparatively from disease are apt to furnish seed of high quality Even under these conditions it Is well to care fully inspect the seed before plant ing and to thoroughly rogue the crop A potato field is by remov ing the undesirable plants A thor- roguing of the growing crop once or
