Boiled Milk.
The inereasing frequency of torbeectiloeis
111 COWS/ and the constant, infection of milk
with microbes, by its contamination with
dirt and excreta through the earelessness of
dairymen, renders it, important that milk
hould only be eaten after having beezi steri-
lized by boiling. German housewives otlways
boil milk as, soon as it is received from the
cow. By this means the germs lore killed in
their growth in the milk, and their produc-
tion of poisonens sebstances is preventeO.
It is the custom of the Sanitarium, to boil
all milk «sod upon the tables of both pottients
and helpers, For some years heretofore it
hots been tile custom to boil the milk (luring
the spring, stemma anil fall months, but it
