Mr. Kerby made a strong appeal that -Canadians should give a prefer- ence to cars built in Canada. thus contributingto the prosperity of Canada. -He referred to the fact that the company was now on a di- vidend paying basis and that the cash position of the company was exceedingly satisfactory. , _ IN- _ If Y} 'll3L___. _,!j,._.L us-was-an-gang I-vwvq-tcwwvvvo 1 Geo.

In its absence, a sut`ficie.nt quantity of boiling water gives good results. Pails, strainers, etc., after washing are scalded `by pouring a pint- of boiling water over the entire inner surface: cans are best treated by pouring in a quart of boiling water, replacing the lid, and rolling the can along the floor to ensure thorough scalding of the inner surface. "As the temperature of the water drops over 50F. during this operation. a fresh quantity must be provided for "each utensil. Unless thisis `done, good results cannot be hoped for. Because of the saving in time and fuel. chlorine solutions are being used in some districts to replace the scalding treatment, and where used intelligently have equal or sup- erior sterilizing efficiency. Cans and pails are carefully rinsed with chlorine solution as in the scalding treatment, orimmersed for one min- ute in a tank containing the solu- tion. Either is satisfactory provided the -utensils are well washed and the chlorine solution is up to strength.

I (Experimental Farms Note) Of the various sources of contam- ination to which milk is subject, the dairy utensils have been defin- itely established `as one of the most serious. capable of contributing a. high percentage of the bacteria found -in milk. Consequently the sterilization of cans, pails or other containers cannot be neglected ifl milk containing few bacteria is to be produced. Thorough cleaning is essential, (but in itself is insufficient.
