In many prisons the inmates are allowed to see movies, allowed to play base ball, allowed to attend lectures and to study, and even allowed to sing. All this is a long cry from the days when prison inmates were looked upon as beasts —subjected to tortures for minor infractions and frequently brutally beaten, sometimes to death. Mercy is one of the finest of human traits, but there are those who seem to think it is wasted on criminals, and the mercy of humanity shown at these institutions is being severely criticised. If mercy is a Christian virtue it should be exercised where and when needed. It can only be given where justice would dictate something harsher. Human beings are still human, whatever they have done. Indulging in torture ijever has and never will contribute to the reformation of anyone. While it may be true that society must be protected it is not necessary that men be driven to insanity, or be forever barred from social recovery. With all our prison improvement we are still a long, long way from a decent, sober, unbiased treatment of the criminal, largely because of our own fears, jealousies, cruelties and crudities —and desire for revenge. o SAVIN© THE ROAD DOLLARS Both in country roads and city streets, millions and millions of dollars have been expended in construction of macadam foundations, which, prior to advent of motor vehicles, were quite adequate to economically carry traffic, but under present conditions absolutely' inadequate. While there are exceptions, a national authority on road construction says: “Where macadam roads exist (whether of stonej gravel or slag) they form a basis for economic salvaging of past expenditure in reconstruction to meet modern conditions, by surfacing with asphalt.’’ This .is true whether or not the so-called macadam cr o)d material is sufficient in depth to provide adequate foundation. It is certainly deep enough to salvage and build upon with new material, rather than to excavate the old and start fresh,with its attendant waste of expenditure. _o_ TRAPPING SEASON

The trapping season in Indiana closes on February 10. and will rem in closed until November 10. All fur bearing animals are protected during that time. Where a fur bearing animal is found doing damage the owner of the premises may kill it. but he must report the matter at once to the department of conserve tion. and send to that department the skin of the animal. The department sells the hide and puts the proceeds into the conservation fund. Otters And beavers are not to be killed in Indiana at any time. :—o HOBSON’S CHOICE Here is the explanation of the expression “Hobson’s Choice.” Tobias Hobson was the first man in England to run a livery stable. When a man came to him for a horse he was led into the stable where there was a great choice. He, however, prevailed on his customer to take the horse next to the door. Hence, when something which ought to be one’s own selection, is forced upon him, we say it is “Hobson’s Choice.” o PUBLIC SALE At my residence 2 miles southeast of Leesburg, on Tharsthiy, February 11, 1926 Beginning M 12 o’clock.

How much do the farmers and dairymen of the United States pay in toll to bacteria in milk? In process of arriving at the answer to this question, representatives of leading milk and dairy products com-, panies of New York recently met with officials of the State Agricultural Experiment Station, with the Department of Farms and Markets and the College of Agriculture at the Experiment Station. Geneva. The bacterial count is being used more and more as a basis for determining how mtich per pound a farmer is to be paid for his milk Getting the bacterial count under a given figure means millions of dollars annually to Uncle Sam’s dairymen. Dairymen, themselves, are alive to this question, and where the milk produced is a material part of the income from the farm, complete sanitary precautions are being <aken to insure a low bacterial count in the milk. at the beginning of milk production and continue clear through until the time the milk is in the hands of the consumer. To begift l with, properly ventilated, easily cleaned stables are provided; plenty of bedding is given the cows; platforms are built the right length to accommodate the particular breed of ccw’s that are kept; the glitter is built wide and deep; the animal is clipped about the udder and flanks period-

ically. The cows are groomed carefully every day and just before milking, loose particles of dirt are brushed off. or, when the cow is clipped, wiped off with a damp cloth. Small top milk pails are used to receive milk from the cows. Utensils such as milk pails, milk cans, milking' machines and separators, are thoroughly sterilized after each milking. The fresh-drawn milk is immediately removed* to the cooling tank where it is cooled to a temperature of 50 degrees to 80 degrees Fahren-* belt. 4 On receipt at the dairy, the.creamery or the condensery, the some extreme sanitary precautions prevail. White garbed workers who havo passed medical inspection, who observe rules of personal cleanliness as well as hygiene In the handling of milk and milk products, go about their duties efficiently and intelligently. Immediately after the pasteurizing of whole milk, it is bottled and capped. The date of bottling is stamped,.on the cap and the milk Is usually sold'before 35 hours have elapsed since pasteurizing. What a difference over the oldtime methods of handling milk! It is these changed methods In the handling of the nation’s milk supply that has swelled the individual consumption of milk to more tham 54 gallons per year.
