announcement by Dr. Carl V.
f0'olds, state health officer that,

commonwealth.
"So far as I know, no other
statc can ,li:uch this . number," Dr.
li'llows said.
1 ' making tlie announcement,
wjtnlDr. Reynolds pointed out the fact
that none of these present clinics
was the result of money .from the
Smith Reynolds Fund but "empha
sized, the prospects for a greatly
increased number when the pro
ceeds from this, fund, which has
placed North Carolina far in the
lead in its war on syphilis., have
Decn put to work." North Carolina
also stands out, he said, as the
state, one of whose representatives
in the congress of the United
States, A. L. Bulwinkle, intro
duced, with Senator LaFollette, the
measure which will eventually mean
the eradication of syphilis, if put
into operation as its sponsors in

In announcing the' locations of
venereal 'disease clinics, Dr. Reyn
olds stated that the Macon county
clinics were held on Tuesdays in
Franklin at 1 p. m.
"Fach . clinic is in charge of a
qualified physician and is operated
either by an organized county or
city health department, or, in the
case of a few exceptions, by the
county quarantine officer or some
interested local organization," Dr.
Reynolds said.
Janitary Handling
-Lessens Milk Loss
North Carolina dairymen lose
thousands of dollars each summer
as a result of nQt handjing their
milk . uronerly.
John A. Arey, extension dairy
man at State college, says that be
cause milk is so easily contaminat
ed, every person connected with its
handling should be clean in his
methods. , When .drawn from
healthy cows, few bacteria may be
tound in it.
Milk souring is caused by bac
teria changing milk sugar into lac

tic acid. It is impossible to remove
these bacteria by straining, as many
people think.
Mifk receives most of its con
tamination from the body of the
cow during milking. Therefore, it
is essential that all parts of the
animal's body be kept clean and
well-groomed.
Then, too, the " milker's hands
may be a source of contamination,
so they should be clean and dry
during the milking process.
Small top pails have proven ef
fective in cutting down the number
of bacteria that enter while the
cow is being milked. Dairymen
should recognize this type of con
tainer as one of the easiest and
cheapest means at his '-disposal for
producing good milk. .
All containers used in handling
milk should be of metal with all
corners and seams completely fill
ed with solder. To clean these con
tainers thoroughly, they should
first be rinsed in lukewarm water,
then scrubbed with a brush in
water -of the same temperature as
that in the rinsing process to
which a good alkali washing powd
er has been added. After washing,
sterilize with steam and store in
1 clean dry place.
Milk should be cooled immediate
ly after the milking process and
held at a temperature of below 60
degrees F.
Poultryman Believes
More Flocks Needed
T. T. Brown, extension poultry
man at State college, believes thai
every farm should have from 50
to several hundred purebred hens.
"We are not advocating that
farmers quit raising tobacco and
. cotton and go into the poultry busi
ness, but a good flock should oc
cupy a definite place on every
1 arm," he said.
The number of birds would de
pend, of course, on convenience,
labor, and adaptability of labor ami
conditions to poultry raising. Some
farmers are actually advised to re
duce the sie of their flocks be
cause of lack of facilities.
North Carolina's poultry program
could ibe unproved greatly, Brown
said. At present, most of State's
egg supply comes in two or three
of the spring months. After that,
many , wholesalers are forced to go
out of the state to get sufficient
eggs to meet their demands.
With improved farm flocks, the
egg supply could be spread more
evenly over the year. Such a con
dition would bring about the es
tablishment of local packing plants
for the handling of surplus pro
ducts. .'
These plants could then furnish
North Carolina jobbers with a local
supply, thus preventing the ship
ping in of outside stocks.
Poultry dressing and storage
plants are badly needed in the
state, but prospective business men
hesitate to start such activities
when they find the inadequate farm
flock and egg supply except during
the spring months, Brown said.

ging for quality eggs in North Car
olina are commercial hatcherips
