The Percentage •Coanpoeition of Milk
—eHandling Milk for the silty
TL'iide Hot Weather Poultry
Counsel.
(Contributed by Ontario Department or
Agriculture, Toronto,)
HE term percentage means
so much In 100—that ia, 1n
one hundred pounds, gal-
lons, etc, The eoinpositIon
of milk is usually stated as so much
of each part in one hundred parts
or pounds. This varies considerably
according to breed of cattle; lactation
period, or length of time milking;
whether first or,last of the milking,
and upon many other conditions,
Usually, however, in Ontario, the
milk will have about the following
composition:
Water 87.6
Fut 3.5
Casein and albumen., .. 3.2
Sugar 5.0
Ask . ... 0.8
Total 100
The buttermaker takes one part
only front the milk, the fat. The
cheesemaker takes. out chiefly two
parts-ongonstltuents, casein and fat.
The coudonsety and , powder' milk
manufacturers make use of all the
solids in milk for huntauod hence
�e
are able to pay higher prices for
milk than can manufacturers of but-
ter and cheese, Because milk con-
tains on the average only about
three -and -one-half pounds of fat,
which when made tato ))utter has
mixed with it from 16 to 20 per cent,
uJ water and salt thus making only
about our pounds of butter out of
100 pounds of milk, we see why but-
ter must of necessity be a high price
per. pound. The cheesemaker is able
to make 8> to 10 pounds cheese
per 100 pounds milk, consequently Is
able to sell his product at about one-
half the price per pound which but-
ter sells tor, and yet pay as high, or
higher prices per 100 pounds milk
than can the butler manufacturer.
The cundensed and powder milk
manufacturers are able to sell their
products at a still lower price per
pound, because they are able to re-
cover from twelve to twelve -and -ono-
half pounds of solid food material
from 100 pounds utill:.
From the foregoing we see that
the commercial value of milk has a
'ery close relation to its composition,
and the use that is niad.e of the var-
tous parts of the milk solids. --H, H.

Milk For the City Trade.
"Safety First" is a good slogan in
the milk business. To make milk safe
it. must be drawn trona healthy cows
--preferably those which have Pass-
ed the tuberculin test; the stable,
pasture and all surroundings must be
Clean; the eteneils which come in
contact 'with the milk must be clean;
the persons handling the•milk should
be a living advertirement of exem-
plified cleanliness; the delivery wag-
ons, cans, measures, etc., eliould be
clean. In order that assursace el
safety may be dot;bly sure, It is ad-
visable:, to pasteurise ;she nillk—that.
Is, he}tt it to 110 degrees to 160 de-
grees 2^., hold ei this temperature
-or twenty to thirty minutes, then
Cool to 60 deg"eee F: or below and
teeld at thls temperature until deliv-
ered to the coruumer. Pasteurized
milk is the safest kind of milk for
unmans to drink.
The person baying milk has cer-
tain duties in Order to augur° a safe
product, .espeelally for children.
Among these may be mentioned, plac-
ing the milk at once on delivery in
a refrigerator or cool cellar protected
frem duet and odors, and by keeping
it in a tightly closed vessel—prefer-
ably in the milk bottle covered with
an inverted glues tumbler, or spe-
cial cover; the top of the milk -cap
should be wiped to remove dust be-
fore taking It from the milk bottle;
no more milk should be taken from
the supply bottlo than le required
for a meal;sany "left -over" milk,
should not he put into the supply
vessel after the meal, 'es ibis will
likely spell the whole of the milk
on hand; milk taken to a sick room
should not be used for any other pur-
pose, except, it be boiled, and then
only for cooking; milk •bottle should
be washed as soon as empty, and be
promptly returned 'to the milkman.
Ihi no ease should mllk bottles be
used for any other purpose In the
house than for ]folding milk,
Milk is a perfect food for children,
Ind also tor 'growu-ups," along with
other substantial material. It is cheap

milk consumers should co-operate.—

SAYS LAW GOVERNING
MEDICAL PRACTICE
DEGRADES PROFESSION
Doctor Metcalfe Tells of His Ex-
periences in Huron County.
To the Editor of The London Advertiser
The law governing the practice of
medicine and surgery in Ontario and
passed in 1869 was evidently intended
for the protection of the people. As now
administered its tendency is to degrade
the prtfessinn. The truth of falsity of
the above statement may be estimated i
by the simple story 5 ant about lo re-
late:
During the last quarter century many
patients have been referred to me by
Ontario doctors. 1 have repeatedly op- 1
erated in Windsor, Sarnia, Chatham and t•
other places in the province. I have
been invited by the Ontario Medical
Association to take part in their meet-
ings and various teachers of medicine
in Ontario have attended my clinics In
Detroit. •
For many years. I have been develop-
ihng a home in Bayfield, Ontario. When 1
war broke out, Bayfield had two pin-ysl-'
'clans; one a Dr. Woods, physically un- I
able to nuke rills, who is now the post-
master and the other a Dr, Smith who
went to the war and has not returned.
During ail these years the only profes-
sional work I did in Huron Lounty was
to operate on an emergency case for
Dr, Smith at midnight, and en the
mother of the same physician. In July
1917 with aid of. Doctors Whiteley of
'Goderich and Kennedy of Winghani, I
operated on a friend of mine who was
suffering from cancer of the stomach
and in the autumn of the same year 1
drained the gall bladder for a .young
man whom Doctor Woods had been at-
tending for many weeks. Dr, Whiteley
assisted the, Dr. Woods having refused 1
on the ground that 1 was not register -I
ed and that he thought it his duty to
keep all the surgical cases for Ontario
surgeons. Next 1 was called in counsel.
with Drs. Scott and McKtay of Seaforth '
and later Dr. McKay assisted me in re-
moving dead bone from a boy's leg.
Dr. Emerson had previously seen the
case in consultation, Dr. McKay then.

was unconscious. These cases brought

people in Huron County for e.5 years
to exactly 8125.
On complaint of the Ontario Medical
Council i was fined 850 and costs by a
magistrate in Goderich,
The following spring 1918, Dr, Whit
ley was elted to appear before ilsclp-
Zine committee of the Ontario tiled,.
cal Council to show why he should not
have his name erased from the register
of the college for assisting me to
practice without a license. 1 was sub-
poenaed to give testimony in the case,
When the people of Bayfield learned
of this action they addressedto the
Ontario Medical Council the following
letter:
"Gentlemen, --The people of this
community are Suffering for lack of
radical attendance, the Bayfield council
has unsuccessfully advertised for a
doctor to locate in our village. Those
who came are discouraged. The cause

that your honorable body has been In -

Whiteley of Goderich for assisting Dr,
Wm: F. Metcalf in his efforts to relieve
the suffering of one of our best-knowr
and highly -respected citizens on July
26 last threatening to abrogate his
right to practice medicine and surgery
in this province and in so doing you
have refected upon the professional
ability of said Metcalf and further that
your honorable body has been fit to
cause said Metcalf to be fined in Sep-
tember, 1917, for saving the lives of
two of our fellow citirens we therefore
take this occasion to inform you that
any action the Medical Council of Ontar
io may take to restrict the usefulness
and liberty of said Metcalf will not in-
fluence the high regard in which Dr.
Metcalf is held by us. He has done Hutch
for the improvement of Bayfield, and
has never refused to aid in any enter-
prise that ire thought night benefit
the people or relieve the sick poor.
For professional services he has repeat-
edly refused reward to' the extent that
we have reason to believe that he has
not d'uring the last 25 years in which he
has spent with us a portion of each
year, accepted for professional services
enough money to pay for the milk he
uses for his breakfast, in short so great ,
a factor has he become in the life of
this community that we hereby agree
to defend hint against any action the
medical council may in the future take 11
against him for rendering professional
services to any human being in Huron
County
"Believing that investigation on your
part will lead to amends for the offence
that has been offered Doctors Whiteley
and Metcalf, we gladly take this oppor-
tunity to affix our signature as fol-
lows."
(This was signed by nearly everyone
who was requested to sigh—about
500 signatures being obtained eta a day.)
Dr. Whiteley trail was conduoted in
the office of the Ontario Medical Court- 1
cil in Toronto. it was a star-eh:sober
session. 1 did not find out what oidcur-
red other than that Dr. Whiteley re -
his right to practice, 1 run told
under good behavior in the future. I,
WAS told that my testimony would not
be needed. I asked permission to speak
to the members of the committee.
This request was granted, 1 then laid JI
before them letters signed by Dr- H.
Wilberforce Aikens, registrar of the
council from which I quote as follows:
First letter dated July 25, 1917,
"if you ferward to us evidence of
your befog a grade ete in medicine of
the University of Michigan and will
attend one session in one of our Oki-
terio medical colleges you can then
offer yourself for the final qualifying
examination of the college,"
1 quote further as follows: "At the
annual meeting last summer the coun-
cil decided td permit graduates of for-
eign medical colleges to dispense with
the year's attendance on lectures and
the matriculation requirefnents in case
of those medical colleges which are
looked upon as recognized by our coun-
cil, List of such coleges is not yet pre-
pared. If the University of Michigan
happens to be In that list, then you
would be able to take your final quali-
fying examination without further study
in this province."

to me because 1 was graduated prior
to 1916. It is apparent to anyone that
those who were graduated subsequent
to 1916 would. not likely accumulate
sufficient experience in surgery to en-
ter into serious competition with the
present generation of surgeons
Ontario,
i then questioned their right to pre-
vent my pursuiing the course for which
I had qualified andpaid my matricual-
tion fee in 1885. Their attorney, Mr.
Osler, said i was right.
The committee then made arrange-
ments for me to take tete regular coun-
cil examination which was to be held
the following week May, 1918.
1 paid my.exiiininallon fee and pre-
sented myself for examination. The
subjects were medicine, surgery and
obstetrics. I thought the questions in
tlfe written examination were fair. In
the main they had reference to diagno-
sis. Although for years 1 had confined
my work to the surgery of the abdomen
and pelvis, yet I had always to eliminate
all other diseases. I had associated with
me several assistants, and maintained
a thoroughly equipped laboratory.
then went to Bayfield' to await the
oral examination to be held about a
week later. White there I operated in
four surgent cases.
1 then took the oral examination,
which was satisfactory to me. Not
hearing the result of the examination,
I wrote to the registrar who replied
that I had passed in obstetrics and fail-
ed in medicine and surgery. I had
given up the practice of obstetrics
twenty years before but had been
every day operating and practicing
medicine and surgery.
1 asked counsel as to whether it
would be advisable to take the matter
to the Legislature. He promised to coa-
ault the head of the firm who was out
of the city. 1 received a reply dated
July t5, 1918 from which I quote as
follows:
"1 had a talk with Mr. Dewart on
Saturday. Ile does not think that much
could be gained by placing the matter
before the Ontario Legislature." •
1 then returned to Bayfield where 1
was promptly sued for operating.tn the
cases referred to. The magistrate, in
disntissitg the case, intimated Wit the
doctor, instead of being either perse-
cuted or prosecuted by the Ontario
Medical Council should in his.opinion,
be commended,
On May 9, 1919 one of the residents
of Bayfield had his hand badly mangled
in a sawmill. He was brought to my
house; he was then in danger of bleed-
ing to death. 'there was no help for
hint nearer than nine miles. I attended
the case, That he might get his indem-
nity from the workmen's compensate
ion board, i filled in the blank fortes
at the same time totting him that '1
expected no pay from the board and
that 1 might be fined anything up to
8100,
Within two weeks complaint was
made by Dr. Emerson of Goderich the
president of the Ontario Medical Coun-
cil and 1 was fined $25 and costs.
'rhe people of Bayfield and surround-
ing country promptly paid fine and
costs. This 1's the first time they have
had opportunity to show their faith-
fulness to the position they had assum-
ed, and in their letter expressed to the
council at the time of tits Whiteley
trial? How can I now refuse to serve
them?
Since that time i have gone frequent-
ly to Bayfield, where my family resides
i see anyone professionally who wish -
to consult me. When operation is
thought to be necessary they come to

forcibly brought to the attention of
Clinton 'Collegiate Board last Tuesday
night when the six teachers made•tit
demands for increased. salaries. Alt
considerable discussion by the nnetn-
bers it was decided that about 90 per
cent. of the teachers now belong to
the :go -called "Teachers' Union," It
would be useless for the board to re-
fuse the advances, hut the alternative
of reducing the standard of the schema
from a Collegiate Institute lo a high
school might be accepted and there is
a strong feeling among the citizens that
this should be done.,
Principal Treleaven's salary was in-
creased from $2,000 to 82,500; that sag
F. E. Foulds science master from $1,600
to $2,000 (besides 8350 from the
Government); Miss McDougall from $t,'

wards from $t,100 to 81,700. The re-
quest of Mr. Neelans, the junior teaflt-
er, for an increase from 81,700 to
81,800 was not granted. '
There is a possibility that the staff
may be reduced to five teachers,
The public school board has reduce@
