Say. Chief Thing About Value of Milk Is the Way It Is Pre served and Tended bo After. Milked From The Cow?On ly Clean Containers Should Be Used and Kept in Right Temperature : J? The 'proper care of milk In the home depend! upon several things, chief among these is the kind of ves sels the milk is kept in and the way they are cleaned. Next in importance is the method used in cooling the milk and the place in whidh the milk is kept from time of milking until it is consumed as food. The veepels in which milk are kept should be smooth inside. They should be made out of such material and in auch shape that they can be easily cle aned. These conditions are most usual ly found in vessels made from tin, and therefore tin vessels are the most desirable. It is a bad custom to. use crocks or any earthenware vessel as a milk container. They are all porous and milk will soak into these pores and decay, thus causing quick souring and bad flavor in the milk. Such ves sels can not be satisfactorily cleaned. Use tin vessels that are smootjh on the iqbide, both for milk buckets and ves sels in which to store milk while the cream is rising. WASHING THE MILK VESSELS AH vessels that have contained milk should be rinsed out with cold or luke warm water, never with hot water. Next they should be thoroughly wash ed with boiling water to which hat been added a good grade of washing soda or washing powder such as Dutch Cleanser or Wyandotte. Never use ei ther soap or dish rag br any other of cloth, but instead use a stiff bristled brush. After this rinse oach vessel out with a little boiling water. Next tho roughly scald the vessels by filling them as naar as possible with boiling water. After this hot water has been poured out, do not dry the vessel with a 'cloth of any kind, but allow the boat in the vessel from the hot water to do the drying. The vessels should bo placed in the sun, away from the flies and allowed to remain there un til needed for use. COOLING AND STORING MILK A small milk house shod Id be con structed near the wqll, in this house nothing should be kept except milk and its products. Milk absorbs odors vary easily and it should be kept aw ay from other tilings chiefly for this reason. The house need not be large and in it should be made a good ce ment water trough. This trough to be used for water in which to cool and store the milk. . Milk should be strained through at ibast three doubles of fine cheese cloth qnd then cooled in the watef trough just as quickly as possible after tb^ milking. If it is well cooled immediate ly, it will, keep sweet longer and will be better food, also the cream -will rise better. If these simple rules are followed in the handling of milk, It will be not only a palatable food, but the beet food that mankind can have and milk and its products should make up at least ferty per cent of all the food people consume.

THIS STATE IS LEADER IN THE HEALTH WORK NORTH CAROLINA LEADS IN 'HEALTH RECORDS According to Statistic* This State Hoe Highest Birth Rate in the ^Country- stnd One of the Lowest Death Rates As Well?Rapid Strides Have Been Made in This Connec tion Within the Past tew Years t ? Raleigh, March 1.?With a total of 89,623 births registered for the past year North Carolina has' broken its own record for the highest birth rate in the Union established in the year 1920. At the same time a iiey low level in the death rate for the state is established with a total reg; : tration of 29,964 deaths. These figu es dtp preliminary, and are subject to slight alterations as delayed cer tificates for the past year are filed with the State Board of Health. Such delayed returns, however, cannot be sufficient to materially effect either the birth or death rate. In" 1920 the birth rate in the state was 31.8 per thousand population as compared with the rate of 23.7 per thousand for the registration are of the country. The death rate was 12.6 per thoupand population for the State as against 13.1 for the registra tion arcs. ? ~ In 1921 the birth rate goes up and the death rate is lowered. On the pre liminary figures available the birth rate for the year is 38.1, and the death rate is 11:4. Figures for com parison with the remainder of the country will not be made available by the United States bureau of the Census until late in the present year. In this connection, however* it is o/ interest to note that the state of New York announces a death rate of 12.2 for the past year, a new low level for that state but one higher than for North Carolina. The city of Chicago announces a death rate of 14 for the year 1921, and the health commission, er of that city states that probably this is the lowest rate possible of at tainment there. The net increase iq the total popu lation of the state for the past year that is the excess births over deaths, is 59,659, or a rate of increase of 2.S per cent. If this rate of increase is maintained the popu^tion of the state will have passed the three mil lion mark well ahead of the next de cennial census. While the birthrate is a matter of prftte yet it is the death rate that | health officials watch most closely, and the constantly declining death rate in this state is the cause of genuine gratification. In terms of lives saved the lowering of the death rate for 1921 as against the previous year means that approximately 3,292 more Tar Reels are today alive and serving their respective communities than would have been if the 1920 rate had prevailed. Compared with 1914, when the death rate was 18.8, it means t'.a* approximately 18,656 more citizen* are alive today, a population compar able with that of a number of the larger towns of the ktate. , Year by year since accurate statis tics have been kept the birth rate in the state ha* been steadily climbing upward, and at the same time the death rate has been even more mark edly declining. The figures eloquent-/ attest the fact that North Carol! ia 1 is a good place in which to be born * ' live, and that its people as a whole ; are constantly growing healthier and happier.

Whitlgy was found guilty. Judgement has not been rendered Wednesday night; and it was reported that both young Whit-j ley and his father had left the coun-1 ty.
