DISEASES LURK IX THE MILK PITCHER
IWBtTTEX rOB THE DIsrATCH.j
At the time when Hippocrates prescribed
milkfordropsy.andtheGreekandtheKoman
made butter lor external application only,
milk, as now, was recognized as a valuable
article ot food, second in importance only
to bread. Indeed, milk has often super
seded the staffof life as an article of diet a
fact not to be'wondered at when it is con
sidered that milk may be used without the
intervention of unskilled cooks. In days
when man's ingenuity had not supplied him
with the endless variety of food stuffs which
now wreck his stomach, milk in many cases
Jormed all three courses of his dinner.
Lone a?es belore the advent of the par
venu milk shake, the Tartar was wont to
quench his thirst and nourish his body
with koumiss, a beverage differing chiefly
(mm the milk shake in the fact that it con
tains alcohol and much carbonic acid, the
latter making it sparkle like champagne. In
this connection it may be staled that the
milk shake is wholesome enough if not par
taken of too often. Milk is a iood, not a sim
ple beverage, so when taken often it is apt
to disarrange the stomach, just as frequent
lunching would.
WHAT 3IILK BEALLY IS.
Chemically, milk consists of water,
albumen, casneir, sugar, various salts, espe
cially those of lime, and fat These in
giedients, exclusive of the last, are dis
solved in the water, while the fat is held in
closed in little round cells or globules,
vhinh mir lip Kppn under the microscope.
and look like little transparent beads float
ing around in the clear liquid portion of
the milk. The fat they contain is butter,
which, in the process "of churning. is lib
erated bv the rupture ot the inclosing en
velope, so that, strictly speaking, butter is
not "made" but rather collected. The
amount of fatty matter in a given quantity
of milk varies greatly in different species of
animals and in different individuals of
the same species. The Holstein, Dur
ham and similar cattle lurnish
good, rich beef; but their milk is poor in
tat, though the quantity of milk as a whole
is large. On the other hand the Alderney,
Jersey and the Guernsey are butter pro
ducers, their milk containing comparatively
an enormous percentage of fat. A phe
nomenon in this respect has a record of 45
pounds and some ounces ol butter as the re
sult ot milk produced in one week. "When
it is considered that such a cow only weighs,
herself, in the neighborhood of 500 or 600
pounds, it is seen that she produces her own
weight, not in gold, but in golden butter in
a period of a few months.
Milk is a perfect food. This is a well
known fact, but why it is so is not so gen
erally known. The reason is this: It con
tains' all the mineral and organic principles
necessary to build up and repair the waste
of animal tissues.
WHT MILK SOUBS.
The milk sugar which all milk contains
is what gives the latter its sweet taste.
"When milk sours this sugar is converted
into lactic acid. This it is otten noticed
that just belore becoming absolutely sour,
milk loses its sweet taste, the sugar having
become partly convened. The albumen is
similar to the white ol egg and the casein is
the cheesy matter.
Condensed milk consists, or ought to
consist, simply of milk Irom which a por
tion ot the normally contained water has
been removed, and to which sugar has after
ward been added as a preservative. If
properly made, it is wholesome and nutri
tions, bcinc especially useful where Iresh
milk is difficult to get in goocTcondition.
The quality of milk varies greatly ac
cording to various conditions, such as food,
care and attention to the cow, her age, con
dition of health and "freshness." Inde
pendent of sophistication, milk varies to the
greatest extent in the amounts of cream and
of water present in it, and it is on this that
the most usual and readiest tests of purity
are based. Unfortunately, though, neither
or these tests can be conveniently applied in
the household.
Milk is one of the most commonly sophis
ticated articles of Iood on the market. The
writer has examined 32 samples of milk
taken from wasons and milk depots of the
two cities. The result of t!ie examination is
as follows:
"WHAT A TEST SHOWS.
Water in adulterative quantities found In 16
samples.
A deficiency of cream found in the same sam
ples.
Starch found in one sample.
Lead found in one sample.
Chalk found in no sample.
Annatto found in two samples.
Salicylic acid found in one sample.
Colostrum corpnscles found in one sample.
Germs of consumption found in one sample.
. Blood and pus corpuscles (matter) in one
sample.
"The cow with the iron tail" has long
furnished the humorist with material for
his monotonous grind, and, as a matter of
lact, water is bv tar the most common adul
teration, though it is not often added as
pure water, hut renerally in the form of
omui uijin, hujcu is ubeu u uuuie wnac is
represented as whole milk. Skim milk is
not often watered. An interesting point
was raised on this question when, some
years ago, a milkman in Allegheny distrib
uted typhoid lever to nearly all the families
he supplied. His well wan found to be the
source of the disease germs, but, neverthe
less, he had not watered the milk; the germs
gained entrance into the cans when the lat
ter were rinsed out with the well water, and
they remained in with the few drops of
water which adhered to the sides. These
few were sufficient to do the deadly work,
for they multiplied themselves by billions
every 48 hours.
The fact of the deficiency of cream in one-
half of all samples examined is a rather start-)
ling showing, and yet the estimation is
based on a low standard requirement a lit
tle lower than that of the milk of an aver
age cow in good health. In four instances
the quantity of fatty matter fell so low as to
indicate the bluest kind of skim milk. In
two of these instances the milk looked al
most as rich as cream, but the color
was due to annatto or cheese color.
It is to the credit of the dairymen that
this is not used even more, since it is kept
in the house of a great many farmers and
dairymen who use it to color butter with.
The use of it in genuine butier is not repre
hensible, sinoe it gives an appet.'zing ap
pearance to a pure product, but when used
in milk or cream it is with the object of
selljng skim milk lor more than it is worth.
Good cream or whole milk is alwavs yellow
in proportion to its quality, while butter
often is not, especially in winter time; hence
the need of a coloring matter.
The starch present in one sample had
been cooked and was probably added to
thicken what was really skim milk colored
with annatto. The lead present in one in
stance probably came from the solder or the
tinning of the cans in which the milk had
been transported. Chalk was not found,
which fact maT somewhat surprise the comic
writers who have for years gone great
lengths in writing criticisms on chalky
milk.
DEATH IX THE MILK PITCHES.
Salicylic acid found in one instance had
probably been added to render possible the
keeping of theniilk fora longer time than
can usually be done. Its use, if long con
tinued, it deleterious, and its addition to
milk is very reprehensible, especially on
account ot the large amount usually con
sumed by tender infants. True, it is used
in medicine, but only for short periods, and
thst'niakes a great difference in regard to
harmful effects. Common salt is injurious
if partaken of freely for a long time.
Colostrum it a peculiar state of the milk
of a cow too fresh to yield a good product,
and its presence in one sample cxamined-in-dicates
that the milk man could not wait
the proper interval before marketing the
milk.
The finding of bacilli, or germs, of con
sumption in one instance is a serious matter.
That the disease may be communicated to
human beings who consume such milk,
there can be no doubt; it is a fact now con
ceded by the advanced thinkers and investi
gators of the medical world to-day. It is
probable in the above case that the cow her
self had consumption, a disease to which
cattle are particularly liable.
The blood and pus" corpuscles present in
one instance indicated inflammationand
probably abscess of the milk glands of the
cow a "Dealing" as it is commonly called.
One can scarcely realize how a man could
have so little idea of right and wrong as to
knowingly market such a product.
Six samples of cream, or what was sold as
such, were examined, with the result of
finding that five contained more than a rea
sonable amount of skim milk, two of them
not being cream at all. One of the latter
two was simply whole milk as it came from
the cow; the other, an ingenious compound
of coloring matter and starch.
Eight samples of butter were examined.
Two were found to contain large quantities
of water, in one cae amounting to 25 per
cent. This is gross adulteration and an out
rageous swindle, inasmuch as it is selling
water at 26 cents per pound. It was evident
ly incorporated purposely aiterthe butter
was made. In one sample examined there
were evidences of the presence of animal
tats. This last butter sold for a little over
half the prevailing price for the finest qual
ity article. All the samples of butter ex
amined contained more salt than warwhole
some. On inquiry this was claimed by some
of the butter makers to be necessary to pre
vent earlv ranciauy ana aecomposiuuD;
others said their customers liked it so; while
one lone individual said it was to increase
the weight of the butter. The writer leaves
it to his readers to decide for themselves
which answer is correct
AS TO CHEESE.
Ten samples of cheese were examined, but
beside cheese flys and maggots, cheese mites
and skippers, no serious impurities were
found; little things like these are relished
by the cheese eater, and probably do not
hurt him. The worst feature about their
presence is that they live at the expense of
the nourishing constituents ot the cheese,
which is consequently impoverished. One
sample showed crystals rf fat foreign to the
cheese, probably lard. "With the exception
of two kinds, all the cheeses examined were
artificially colored. This is claimed to be
necessary in order to sell the product. This
is strange, but it is probably true; though
why some varieties must be painted to sell,
while others are bought when of natural
color is a mystery.
A milk dealer and another individual, a
mau who has sold cheese and butter all his
life, both stated a few days ago that they
knew their respective wares were sophisti
cated, and they deplored it, but did not
see how the matter could be remedied.
But in view of the fact here demonstrated
that milk and milk products are largely
subject to sophistication, a remedy tor the
evil becomes quite an important matter. In
this connection may well be mentioned the
experience ot a friend of the writer's. This
gentleman started a retail milk establish
ment. In endeavoring to pick up a patron
age he found that he had some competitors
in the business who could sell
milk at the price he paid to
the farmers for it himself.
Many people refused to pay a little more for
pure milk than they did lor a mixture of
milk and water. There is good evidence
that his milk was pure and that the cheaper
milk was not This circumstance points a
very obvious moral.
There arc sufficient reasons for the asser
tion that milk should not be allowed to
stand longer in tin vessels than is unavoid
able; crocks are the proper things, though
not practicable for transportation of milk.
Lead may exist in the enamel of crockery,
but it is "in an insoluble condition. The
greater facility with which crockery may be
thorough!? cleaned is alone sufficient to
recommend it Buttermilk especially
should never be kept standing in a tin
vessel. The writer has found small quanti
ties of
LEAD ET BUTTEE5IILK
that had stood for several days in a tin
milk can. The lactic acid had acted upon
the lead in the tinning and solder, pro
ducing the lactate of lead, which is soluble
in an abundance ot water. Tinplate, of
which cans are made, ougnt not to contain
any appreciable quantities of lead, but as a
matter of fact it contains four or five times
as much lead as tin.
"Whenever practicable it would be well to
investigate the arrangements of the dairy
supplying your milk, to see if the cows are
sleek and well fed, stables clean and fre?
from foul odors, etc.
Dr. "Wood, ot this city.in a piper that was
read before the Countv Medical Society,and
which was published in full at the time in
The Dispatch gave some excellent advice
on this and other.allied points.
In London 'it is, or was a few years ago, a
common thing for cows to be driven through
the streets to the door of the dairyman's cus
tomers, where the lacteal fluid is withdrawn
under the eye and immediate supervision
of the purchaser. This is one very effective
method of preventing sophistication of
milk, though, on the whole, it is not to be
recommended, because of the injury done to
the cow and her milk by driving
her through the streets. A better plan is to
insist on having good, sweet, mild milk,
which on standing yields a good layer of
rich cream. You will have to pay a little
more for it, but what is a cent or two a day
when you are considering a matter of siek"
ness or health? To save pennies on milk
and spend dollars for the doctor is a good
example of that homely old expression:

BRUSH AND PALETTE.
Interest Taken in the Art Exhibit in
the Exposition Galleries.
A GROWING APPRECIATION OPART
Mention of Some of the More Important
Paintings Displayed.
GOSSIP ABOUT OUR LOCAL AETISTS
The interest attaching to the art exhibit
at the Exposition galleries shows no signs
of abating, but seems rather to be increas
ing day by day. This, however, so far
from being a matter that need excite sur
prise, is only what might reasonably be ex
pected considering the character and extent
of the display. "We have had many exhi
bitions of pictures in this city at which
were shown some splendid works, but never
before has such a large number and such a
great variety of paintings and drawings
of an equal order of merit been gathered to
gether under one roof and established under
conditions so favorable to their inspection
and study. Thafthis fret is appreciated by
vast numbers ot intelligent and refined peo
ple is fully evidenced by the crowds that
daily throng the galleries, and it does not
require a particularly keen observer to note
that a very considerable proportion of the
visitors exercise a nice discrimination be
tween work which is masterly and that
which is only mediocre. And this discrim
ination in turn indicates that the taste
m art of those for whom the galleries prove so
attractive is refined, cultivated and intelligent
No one can do justice to this display In ono or
two hurried visits, and this fact is soon felt
and appreciated by those who make the at
tempt; the same persons mar often be seen
repeatedly studying some of the more im
portant pictures, thus proving that they fully
realize the value of the opportunity afforded
them by an exhibit of such unusual excellence.
SOME NOTABLE PICTUEES.
Although mention has already been made of
many of the most noted works, still many others
remain that are worthy of notice, as at each
visit to the galleries something new and strik
ing may be observed in pictures that were
previously passed by without the attention
which they merit.
A work that should not be passed without no
tice.and one that is likely to command attention
through Its striking character and composi
tion, even tbongh faulty in execution, if judged
from a severely critical standpoint, is JSdw.
Dondall's '"Last Interview Between Charles L
and Oliver CromwelL" A rather pretentious
picture, in which a fine conception has been but
poorly carried out, is that entitled,
"His Father Was a Soldier," a Dec
oration Day group, by J. Harrison
Mills. This picture is faulty In recard to the
expression on the faces of the three persons
composing the croup. An altogether pleasing
and satisfactory painting is the one called "The
Old Manse," by Walter Katterlee. This picture
represents two young girls arranging some
flowers in a room of an old-fashioned mansion.
The color is very agreeable, and the texture of
the drapery is particularly well rendered. The
"Frosty Slorning." by Hamilton Hamilton, is a
fine work In a free, but effective style of ex
ecution. A work beautifnl in color and unique
in the stvle of its comnosition is the "Good
Morning," by Edward Morau. Miss Bertha
von HUlern's work, "fit. Paul the First Her
mit." shows a deplorable lack of technical skill.
Whatever may be said of its conception and
composition in these particulars it has received
much praise it can hardly be said to possess
any technical excellence whatsoever. A point
ing somewhat faulty in drawing, but which
probably conveys a very fair idea of the char
acter of the scene depicted, is the "At Bay," by
F. S.' Dellenbauzh. The work represents a
Navajo Indian brought to bay among the rocks.
"A Chapter From the Koran" is the title of a
strong work by William Sartain, showing a
picture of life and manners, far removed irom
anything with which we are familiar. John W.
Cassiliar's "Genesee Valley After Bain"
shows a fine effect of sky and distance. Mr.
C. S. Kifpatrick's '"Grandma" deserves notice
from its being a creditable work by one of the
younger ot our local artists.
SOME CUBIOUS VISITOBS.
Of course one visits the galleries with his
eyes open, but the sense of hearing is also
sometimes made the medium through which
he becomes cognizant of many amusing inci
dents transpiring around him. Among the
throngs which frequent the galleries there are
always some to whom a painting is a mystery.
Persons of this class are wont to give vent to
their amazement in very characteristic lan
guage, and in tones which are distinctly
audible even at a considerable distance. It is a
great cause of astonishment with them that the
works which they see before them are the re
sults of the working of the human hand and
the human brain, and they can scarcely realize
thatsucb works can be produced without tbestid
of machinery. To their unsophisticated minds
it seems reasonable to suppose that man might
construct a machine to do any kind of work
which he desired, however intricate or compli
cated it might be, but that he can do the same
work himself they deem incredible and at
times refuse to believe. More than one such
innocent has been heard to assert while stand
ing before some masterpiece of art that "It
wasn't never hand-made," or "hand-painted."
as the case might be. To such persons a little
hit of realism will appeal with far greater force
than the grandest productions of genius, and
they are filled with open-mouthed wonder
hen they learn that what appears to be glass
in Mr. King's "Bad Break" is not glass but
paint, and their admiration knows no hounds
when thev discover that the flies upon the
"Peaches" do not flutter their wings when
touched. One of these characters, a long,
lank cadaveious looking individual with a
straw hat, top boots and a beard of the typical
hayseed cut, stood before Benoni Irwin's "La
Impro visatrice" and gazing long and earnestly
at a fly that bad settled upon the picture, at
length reached up with his huge cotton um
brella and touched it, unable to discern the
difference between the representation and the
reality. Surely If one fails to find sufficient
matter of interest upon the walls of the galle
ries be might spenu his time pleasurably and
not altogether unprofltably in studying the
character of some of the visitors.
Pictures and Painter.
A sttjdt in oil of a basket of pansles, the
work of Miss McCartan, is shown at Young's.
Mb. a. F. King is industriously working
upon a number of his small studies in water
colors.

ject of a sketch which Miss Rayner exhibits at
Young's.
THF late Mr. Josenh W. Drexel, of New
York, has been credited with the statement
that counterfeits of Corot's pictures might
easily be secured at prices ranging from S260
to 1300.
The small water color which Mr. H. S. Ste
venson has placed on view at Mayer's is ouo of
the best works of its kind which he has ye
shown. In refinement of color and composit
sion, particularly the latter, it is not surpassed
by any work be has, ever produced.
Several water colors by M. Bennett, M.
Degraff and F. Baer are on exhibition at
Boyd's.The works by the two first mentioned ar
tists, consisting of marine views, are very
pleasant pictures, but the landscape by Baer is
rather weak in color, and somewhat stilted and
careless in drawing.
Miss Madge Irvin is at present endeavor-
lng to faithfully represent upon canvas some
of nature's changeiul moods, Tne scene of
her labors is close to Steubenville, O., whither
she has been attracted by some glowing ac
counts sent her of the beauties of the scenery
at this time of the year when the brilliant
greens of summer have become somewhat
sobered and subdued, and before the trees
have pnt on their brilliant autumnal tints. It
is her intention to return home about the last
of the month.
The work of Julian Eix is becoming very
well known in this vicinity through the various
methods of reproduction, of which etching
seems to be the one most frequently adopted.
The name of W. L. Lathrbp is also becoming
familiar to art lovers as an etcher of
works by RIx, and, if the number of
proofs from his plates shown in this city is any
criterion to judge by, both artist and etcher
seem to be receiving the appreciation that is
well merited by the skill and talent shown in
their productions. The latest of these etchings
exhibited here, which may now be seen at
Boyd's, is entitled "Warneque." It Is a scene
of landscape and river, with the roofs of some
town buildings appearing above the trees in
