Most ce the bacteria which gets into milk comes from •utensils, such as cans, pails, straincrs, coolers and sep- arators, which have not been properly cleaned. A dairy authority recom- mends the following method for clean- ing the utensils: First, rinse in luke- warm water as soon after use as pos- sible; second, wash in hot water con- taining washing powder, which will remove grease; third, rinse in ,clean, hot water and place in live steam fif- • teen seconds, drain and place right side up until steam evaporates. Where steam is not available sunning will give effective results. Drying should • not be done with a cloth, but by heat- ing the utensils in steam or an oven sufficiently to evaporate the moisture.

Stock raisers who have not been in the habit of marketing stock for them- selves or in co-operation with others, need have no hesitation in submitting their animals for sale on the.public stock yards. Through the Dominion Live Stock and Live Stock Products Act, stock yards .are under govern- ment control, which sees to it that full justice is done to the sellers. The system, which has been in operaeion since 1917, has done much to inspire -confidence in production as well as in _marketing. It has not only promoted a feeling of confidence` but has meeult- ed in many stock raisers obtaining- • a knowledge of the business of mar- keting. Marketing at the public stock yards is so regulated as to prevent any form of extortion. Equal oppor- tunities are provided for all, both in purchase and sale, and disinterested and timely information as to the live etock market situation is constantly being issued from the yards. The facilities provided tend t� sofeguard against abnormal market conditions, by promoting intelligent distribution and the encouragement of more marketable types of live stock. Dur Ing the course of the year covered by the latest -annual report of the Hon. W. R. Motherwell, Minister. of Agri culture, approximately 865,000 cattle, 265,000 calves 800,000 hogs, 595,000 sheep, were sold at the various stock yardsin Canada under conditions supervised by officers of the Live A LiTTI g PIG pisEAsE. . ,very „heavy ,loss i experieneed, by minne.farmere each epeing through the loss ,of littic,pigs. • Not ameng the pigs that are hornt. and rearedeout the •green, gross where everything is, clean, but among these that are behen I during 'pc:bra:ley and Mach under I conditions thee are very favorable for the presence and development . of: Bacillus NecroYorts, The • little pig looks Ete though it had a dirty face.
