.1 OH MILK WILL BECOUIITED Results Will Be Published Ev ery Month First Work Done in Laboratory. Sometime within the next month, probably about May 1, the people of Asheville will be told how many bac teria they are drinking daily in the milk which they buy from the dairies around the city. At least they will be told how many bacteria each cubic centimeter of t he milk t hey drink contains and they may calculate how many millions will be contained in a quart. This will be done by Milk In spector L. M. McCormick and his fin urea for publication will be obtained from examinations of milk in the city laboratory. There has been some doubt ex pressed by the dairymen that the people generally would appreciate and understand what the bacteriolog ical count of samples of milk means, but Mr. McCormick thinks that they may be made to understand. The method he proposes is to take sam ples of milk from all the dairies once every week and make a bacteriologi cal examination. At the end of the month he will take averages of these four counts and publish a list show ing the bacteria content of milk from these dairies. That milk contains bacteria does not mean that it is harmful especially, for there are both good and bad bac teria, but there are no bacteria in the milk as it comes from the cow and so the bacteria content simply indicates the attention the milk is given from the time it is milked until It is bottled for sale. A large content denotes carelessness and more likelihood of contamination. There are almost no limits to the number of bacteria that may be found In ordinary milk but the methods of the health departments of various large cities have established stand ards for this content. The generally accepted limit for certified milk that may be fed to babies is 10.000 to the cubic centimeter, while anywhere from' 50,000 to 100,000 is set as the maximum for general use, The latter ' number will probably be used as the standard maximum for Asheville at present. The publication of the results of the examinations in the newspapers here will doubtless do much to encourage cleanliness and care with the milk in the dairies aa this publication may aftat't thA sales. The inniruaJ ......... dairies will probably be divided into two divisions, A anu r. uic ......i,.A miiu ontninini: not over 50,000 bacteria and the latter above that number. n.o.,1,. Mr McCormick has made ahout 40 examinations and these show widely varying results. mi terla are found in numbers, from tAftA ?nn Ann tn the cubic centi meter. He thinks that the worst of this is probably due to carelessness on the part of the dairymen in not properly scalding their bottles. This, he says, comes naturally for them at this season, as the winter season causes very little trouble in souring milk and so produces carelessness, it-i k ..oUiiir nn nublished. how- ever, and the people understand.wnat they mean, there will doubtless be more attention paid to these detuils , l.iiainoHtx This work in the examination or milk is the first that has been done in .h ,.itv tnlmrutnrv. which opened several' days ago. So far. too, it is the only class of work, as the prep arations for other bacteriological ex An,;n.,ir,r,M nro mt vet conmleted.

HEAR WOFIi Committee on Repairs Named Extension of Privileges to Boys Other Business. Why Should a Chicken Lay a Sof tShelled Egg ? Because, Willie, the chicken don't know how to create a hard shelled egg unless it has some food with lime in it. So chicken-raisers often provide limestone gravel, broken oyster shells or some other form of lime. Let the chicken wander free and it finds its own food and behaves sensibly. Shut it up and feed stuff lacking lime iand the eggs are soft-shelled. Let's step from chickens to human beings. Why is a child "backward" and why does a man or woman Lave nervous prostration or brain-fag? There may be a variety of reasons but one thing is certain. . If the food is deficient in Phosphate of Potash the gray matter in the nerve centres and brain cannot be rebuilt each day to make good the cells broken down by the activities of yesterday. Phosphate of Potash is the most important element Nature demands to unite albumin and water to make gray matter. 7 Grape-Nuts food is heavy in Phosphate of Potash in a digestible form. A chicken can't always select its own food, but a thoughtful man can select suitable food for his children, wife and himself, j, , - ! ; - ll 'There's a Reason" for J Tho directors of the V. M. C. A. held a mootitiK last iiIkIU at which Bcvcrnl matters of Importance wore disponed f. reports were heard and many rou tine matters attended to. Almoin these was the appointlnK of a com mittee to Hoc about repairs for the bulldlnu. It was stated that the bath room ui-eds repairs, some plasteriiiK innsl be replaced, a new roof is need ed and new lire escapes should be installed. The directors decided to give privi- Ickcs for one nicht each week to the boys of the Douhleday club. These will be Riven (,'ymnasluni and Hlble lass privileges on Tuesday niKhls. Two other clubs, the class formerly under the probation olllcer and that from the factory district, will be Riven the same privilege, making about 100 boys In all. A committee was also appointed to secure a site lor a tennis court, as the older member have felt the need of one for a long time. The directors appointed a commit tee to secure tents for the boy's' camp and to decide on the location for the outlnR, which takes place In June. ('. 11.
