Mrs C.E.J.'s letter and the reply thereto: I should be
inclined to doubt the wisdom of making this from unboiled or
uncooked milk unless one had it from one's own cows and could
supervise the dairy oneself. The average milk that comes into
towns from country farms is--well, it's unthinkable. There's a
saying that what the eye doesn't see the heart doesn't grieve
over, but that doesn't alter the fact that the average cow is
none too clean, the average milker's hands and clothes (to say
nothing of his face, hat and head) none too clean, the
milking-place none too clean, and the circumstances of transit
such as don't make for cleanliness. I have put it very
moderately, as those who know country dairy farms will admit.
Those who particularly want clean cheese from uncooked milk
should buy it from a County Council dairy farm or similar
institution. Yours truly,

B.C. FORDER.

WILL OTHER READERS DO LIKEWISE?

I am ordering two copies each month from my local newsagent.... I
thought he might be induced to show copies of your publication in
his window.

_THE HEALTHY LIFE_ IN THE LIBRARIES.

Mr C.H. GRINLING writes (25th October 1913):--

I note the suggestion on p. 580 of the October number of _The
Healthy Life_. A friend enables me to ask you to send _The
Healthy Life_ regularly for one year to the Woolwich Public
Library, William Street, Woolwich. I enclose 2s. The librarian
will see that it appears on the magazine-room table regularly.

[There is every reason why _The Healthy Life_ should be known and read
in every public library in the United Kingdom. In this we are entirely
dependent upon those readers who are ready to follow the excellent
example of the above and other correspondents. A year's
subscription--2s.--is a very small price to pay for bringing the
message of this magazine before the public in this way. We should like
to hear from readers in all parts.--EDS.]

FRUIT-OILS AND NUTS.
