When properly done. in a double boiler in any home kitchen. When properly done. past- eurizing does not give milk a cooked or scorched flavor and does not cause loss of important nutri- tive value of the milk. Bottled milk sold by city dair- ies has been pasteurized for many years, but convenient methods of home paste-urizing are not yet fam- iliar to all farm housewives. For home pastetirization an ther- mometer is essential. Hardware stores. dairy supply companies or local dairy plants sell the floating dairy thermometers, which is most convenient for this job, at about 51.00 a piece: but any thermom- eter which can be put into the milk may be used. For quick pasteurization. milk in the upper p 't of the doub- le boiler, put in the mometcr, and when the theromet-It or mgisiers 160 degrees F., count: off 15 seconds and then pour offl the hot water in the lower part of; the boiler and replace with cold! water until the milk has coolcdn Ice in the water hastens the cool-J pour, 3.

Another process is to heat the milk at 143 degrees F. for 30 min.- iztes, then cool and pour in bot-J ties. The important point to re-i member for safety is that all the? milk must be heated at not lessi than the specified temperature forf the recommended time. Farm families 01' large families; who may want to pasteurize larg-E er quantities of milk can put thet raw milk in clean sterile glass canning jars. leaving about three-, fourths inch headspacevat the top of the jars for expansion in heat- ing. then seal the jars and put inf a water-bath canncr. ln standard '7-quart canners 6 quarts of milk may be pasteurized with one quart jar of water which holds the ther- mometer.

This in-the-jar pasteurizing saves pouring milk into bottles after heating and may be the most con- venient mcthod for farm families who have home canners and want to pasteurize as many as 6 quarts of milk at I time.

Perhaps the commonest cause of tiredness in a man or woman past 50 is infection. although his family and he himself may think it due to overwork. An examination should be made by the family physician and dentist to try to find infection of teeth. tonsils. gums. sinuses, gall bladder or large intestine. The, regular prccesses and the fighting forces of the body keep working away as best they can des- pite Infectlon, but hr.-ally the in- fection begins to win the fight and tiredness and sleepiness is the re- sult. While infection is the commonest cause of tiredness tn the patient of 50, the thyroid gland in the neck may become less active which alq causes a "slowing up" of the individual physically and mentally In "Clinical Medicine." Dr. W. )3. (Washington University School of Medicine), states that a basal metabolism test. which is used to test the rate at which the body processes of the body are working under control of thyroid gland. should be made, A persistent. fall in metaboli: rate may be first sign of body degener- aticn with sgv-.11-ptams of tiredness nervousness and ir.-iihllity to keep up physically. The pulse is fast (at first) and abdomen distended "Lack of physical and tnental vigor is noted; the blood pressure may rise without organic disease." The treatment for underactivitr of the thvrid gland is: thyroid cx-- tract in doses of '-.- to 1 grain daily. with organic iodine, which stimu- lates metabolism (building up and breaking down of body tissue) and delays degeneration. As Infection is commonest causej -pf tiredness in patient of 60, the familv physician and dentist should dist be consulted. If no in- fection present then a metabolism test is made which may show that thyroid gland is underactlve. The metabalirm test. as arranged by your physician. is not expensive. GOITER .

He was sl- wnys ll. home in the mountains and valleys of hlrintivc Scotland where he was born in Dunbar. in the year 1838. At the age of eleven he came to America with his parents and the Muir family begun the hard life of pioneers on I homestead in Win- consin. Like other pioneer children, John had many tasks to keep him occupied for his strict father be- lieved In long hours of tail for every member of the family. The boy proved I willing worker and whether he was turning n furrow. chopping down trees, or helping his father clear their land, he put everything he had into the work. The great outdoors was his work- shop nnd he loved to hear the songs of the birds. the buzzing of the busy bees as they flitted from flower to flower gathering honey for their nest. He liked to watch the shy squirrels peeping at him from behind tree trunks. Indeed, every creature the wlldwood interested this farm youth and he made friends with all kinds of animals of the forest: and with the birds of the air. Noth- ing in Mother Nature's Kingdom escaped his observing eyes. Young Muir had learned to write. read. and do a few simple sums in Arithmetic. That was the extent of his early education. lie would liked to have spent more time in study but his father dis- couragcd him in this. Old Muir considered learning of any kind a sheer waste of time. He had the old-fashioned idea that to be a good farmer all one needed to know was how to keep the weeds down and perhaps plow a straight furrow. Poor John! How was he ever going to find the time to read the few precious books he had bought on the sly. "No son of mine will be permitted to remain up at night reading." the father had said time and again. John disobeycd him and was punished. Finally his father told him he might get up and read as early in the morning as he liked. Little did he think. however, that his ambitious son would rise at one o'clock in the morning, yet that's exactly what John did, not only one or two mornings, but al- most every morning the lad would: rise at the same timbe to spcndil these percious hours in study. or. working at crude inventions - hisl own brain children - in a little corner of the cellar he had walled off for his workshop. We are told that he made many curious machines with nothing but I few boards and some cheap tools thll. he had picked up here and there. Then one day he carried some of his inventions to the state fair at Madison. where they at- tracted considerable attention. of . - 0 Later he decided to go to the state university though he knew his father could not keep him fir.- anelnlly. How did John Muir man- age to overcome this difficulty? By doing odd chores and living on fifty cents a week. Think of it! After leaving college he set out on foot to explore as much, of the country as he could. Month after month he tramped the mountain. valleys and plains. until he knew the country as well as he knew the old homestead. While on this tour. he visited California and married a Polish girl from San Francisco. Then he engaged in fruit-farming. for the sake of being close to Na- ture where he could continue to study her children. Fruit-farming proved a fair venture enabling him to pick up some ready cash with which to continue his travels. Next we find naturalist Muir in Alaska. and during this exploration he discovered Glacier Bay 5 FOR THE unvcnss sun-nun Tailored version of the two-Iwny costume - and one of the moat Ilendeflllnc styles of the season The front.-button dress is nguro following . . ,coIlsrod bolero is too.
