PURE AND CHEAP MILK.-In London
the names of those who are known to sell
adulterated milk are published monthly,
and, it is said, with good effect. The plan
has been attempted in some of the cities of
the United States, but only partially, and
with very limited success. There is in Lon
don company-the Aylesbury Dairy
Company--which occupies premises cover
ing an area of fifty acres of ground, the
system being to procure..and distribute milk
from reliable sources and of an assured
good quality, at rates which shall be rea-
sonably remunerative to dairymen, and at
the same time secure consumers against ex-
tortion from spectators, middlemen, and
others. The company has been in opera
ton long enough to have tested its practi-
cability and beneficent effects, and it now
supplies several thousand families once,
twice, and, in some instances, three times
a day, with pure milk. 1t commenced
with capital of fifty thousand dollars,
but that has been increased to five hundred
thousand, upon which dividend Of ten
per cent. is paid. The price of milk fur
nished by the company has never exceeded
eight cents a quart. The purity Of milk
may easily be determined by ascertainine
the percentage of cream and solid matter
which it gives. Genuine milk will average
ten per cent. of cream and twelve per cent
of solid matter. A milk with less cream
and solid matter than this has beer
