A GROWING BUSINESS
Four years ago the New YORK Con-
densed Milk Company came to Jersey
City with six wagons and only delivered
an average or 1900 quarts bottled milk a
week. BY uslng only the purest milk
aud cream and keeping their farmers
under a cast iron contract, whereby the
purity is assured, they gained a name
and reputation and doctors recommended
1t in sickness aud in health as the best
milk obtainable. Before the cav sheds
along the Hackensack were raided. aud
when other dealers put the price of milk
down several cents on the quart, the
Condensed Milk Company made no re-
ductiou, but guaranteed their milk
to be pure. The result is THAT
now, the Hudson county branch, which
extends omGuttenberg TO Bergen Point,
runs Lwepty-slx wagons aud delivers
80. 900 quarts of bottled milk and 1000
quarts of condensed milk in a week.

wagons, which are being made, as soon
as they are finished. The Hudson county
