costing your dairyman from four to
six cents, one cause of the high cost
of milk. Do not take the bottles in
the sick room, they may easily become
infected and carry contagion to an
other family. Milk that has been in a
sick room should not be used by well
members of the faimlly.
If an infectious disease appears in
the home, do not permit the milk man
to leave bottles, but put out a covered
dish into which he can pour the milk.
Infected milk bottles have caused
many epidemics.
Do you visit the dairy from which
you get your milk supply ' If not, why
not? By so doing you will not only
help yourself in keeping in touch with
your milk supply, but you will greatly
assist the Department, for you will
help us in our crusade for cleaner ana
better milk, and see that the dairy
man whom you visit carries out the
following:
Ist. Maintain cleeanliness in the
barn.
2nd. Cleans the cows before milk
ing.
3rd. Clean and wipe udders with
wet cloth.
4th. Milk only healthy cows.
- sth Miilk with covered sterilized
Pails.
6th. Cools the milk immediately af
ter milking.
7th. Keeps and delivers the milk
cold.
Bth. Keeps the milk In sterilized
vessels.
9th. That no employer has infec
tious disease.
10th. The hands he thoroughly
washed before milking with soap and
water.
11th. That they take care in the
handling of milk.
12th. In general to see that he main
tains the dairy in a clean, sanitary
manner.
You will remember in making this
visit of inspection that it is not always
the dairyman with the most expensive
equipment who produces the best
milk, for if a dairyman lias an equip
ment that may be home-made, it is not
equipment to my mind that counts,
but the 'methods of cleanliness that
count in the production of a clean
milk. You will always remember that
the Department of Health stands
ready to hear your complaints and
adjust them, and it is your hearty
co-operation that we ask in our fight
for a pure milk supply for Augusta.
THE WAR MONTH
April has been the fatal month for
peace in the United States. It was in
April, 1775, that the War of the Revolu
tion began, and it lasted till the end of
April, ITS:). The Black Hawk Indian
War, in which 6,465 United States troops
were engaged, began in April, 1831. The
Meixean War, with 30,000 regulars and
73.000 militia and volunteers in the
field, began in April, 1846./ The Civil
War, with 2,772,408 United States troops
engaged, began in April, 1861. The Span
isfi-American War, in which nearly 30.-
000 United States troops were engaged,
began in April, 1898. And it was on
April 20, 1914, that President Wilson
asked Congress to assist him to uphold
the dignity of the United States against
Huerta, the dictator of Mexico. —Popular

Dr. A. L. HAGGERTY
JjB&V
Wfltf~T. <•
Chief Food Inspector of the Depart
ment of Health, came to Augusta In
June, 1912. Since coming to Augusta
he has reorganized the division of food
inspection. That he has been success
ful in his efforts to give Augusta an
efficient food inspection has been
demonstrated by the fact that today
Augusta is rated by the state offi
cials as the best food inspected city
in the state, if not one of the best in
the South, for the reason that other
cities have copied and passed the or
dinances of the City of Augusta that
were the product of the mind of Dr.
Haggerty.
That Dr. Haggerty is an authority
on food inspection is shown by the
tact that other cities of the South are
sending their food officials to this city
to see Dr. Haggerty and get advice
from him on bettering their condi
tions. That he is a successful food
inspector is a fact known by all, for
the work he has done for Augusta is
plainly seen by the citizens.
Dr. Haggerty is a man of broad mind
and of a pleasing and congenial dis -
position, and has, since coming to Au
gusta, made a host of friends who re
gard him in high esteem. In all my
visits to the health offices of other
cities I have yet to find one so system
atically kept as is the office of Dr.
Haggerty, and if you will visit his of
fice he will show you the care that is
taken to guard the milk supply of your
baby, and Augusta should feel proud
that they have such a capable man as
Dr. Haggerty to look after the food
supply.
ROOF DANCING
(New York Press).
Dancing in the woods was the old
manner in the classic times and
mythology tells of the worship thus
paid by the pagans to the gods. The
poets sang of it. The priests of Mars
were the principal dancers in the sa
cred rites of that ditty. There was,
also, the religious dancing alluded to
in the Old Testament, as where Da-

his joy and that of his people and
there were the dances of the Druids
around the altars and the mysterious
stones.
Never, perhaps in the history of
the world was dancing more popular
than it is today—not even in the
