Own- ers of houses in the thickly populat- od areas will see the wisdom of max- ing their roofs fireproof when they are renewing or repafring them. All old cities have their firetraps, {and Kingston still has a few thay, j cause worry to the fire department, | For this reason our fire-fighting ap- | paratus must be sufficient. Only re- { cently the city council, for economy | sake, and because the budget maue {no provision for the expenditure, | turned down a recommendation of | the fire and light committee to repair | the old Chatham engine for emerg- ency use. We may be lucky enough | to escape this year without requiring { this engine as an auxiliary, or in | case two big fires occur at the sama { time, and again we may have occas- | fon to regret the action of the coun- {eil. i ------ MUZZLE THEM, 98 There are actually people of prom- 81.5% Inence in Kingston who declare that |act states: ee -- -------- |«condemns- the present milk by-law | | that does not guarantee a safe milk IF YE OBEY: --If ye will supply, b ice indeed, and | The Dairy Standards Act, now be- cop my ay ND ye shall be | | " : tes, > | { Ing enforced In 847 cheese factories a peculiar treasure unto me above | | makes pasteurization compulsory, fy people, for all the earth is mine: {2nd inspectors are employed to 380 and ve shail be unto me 2 kingdom | that the law is observed.

Strange as it may seem, the province teurization compulsory in all chessa and butter factories in order that the by-products fed to calves and pigs may be free from injurious bacter- la. But the municipalities permit milk that has not been so treated, and which is known to be polluted with di ® germs, to be sold as food to children. x Kingston has been content with the enforcement of an Inspection by- law that does not cover the situation at all, and which everybody knows is but a makeshift. The milk inspect- or's work does not call for the de- tection and isolation of tubercular Cows because no provision was made for that, and as the prevalence of the disease cannot be ascertained without such tests, diseased milk is undoubtedly sold daily. ? In the absence of proper action on the part of the city council, the matter is one that the citizens must deal with themselves. They can sterilize all milk to be used as food by either boiling it or by keeping it at a temperature of 160 degrees fur twenty minutes. Parents who de. sire their children to be healthy should do this until the city couneil wakes up to its duty.
