.DA|RYMEN ERECT
COOLING HOUSES
Thirty-Five Built in July. Ac-
cording to Board of Health's
Order.
IMPROVING THE SUPPLY
Health Department Urges
Cleanliness on Part OF Con-
sumers.

Reports on file at the Health Depart
nient show that the dairymen of Rich
nlond have erected. or are erecting.
thirty-five milk houses, In accordance
with the regulations recently promul-
gated by the Board ofsfiealth. While
all of the rules have not been made
effective. this move on the part of the
milk dealers Is an indication that there
Is no attempt TO defy the authorjties.
These milk houses are used exclusively
for storage and cooling. They are sep
arated from barns and stables and
sleeping apartments. The record of
new structures Is for the month of
July, and others will be provided later
on.
With these changes. which are being
brought about at the dairies, Health
Officer Levy. always alive to the i'm
portance of care and cleanliness. is
again directing the attention of con-
sumers to the necessity of providing
clean Jars and cans TO be used in the
home.
Keep MIX jars Clean.
1.-THE milismen of Richmond, says the,
Health Department, state that many
persons in this city have the idea that
II milk is delivered TO them warm 1t is
proof of its being fresh from the COW.
and hence fresher. So far from this
as soon as II Is gotten from the COW Is
i. possible to prevent rapid decomposi-
ton in warm weather. PThe reBula-
tons of the department require that
all milk sold in Richmond shall be
cooled as soon as possible after milk
ing"
Warning To Consumers.
In another warning urging consnm-
ers to give their personal attention tc
milk vessels. the department says:
IF the mlikman does not deliver
his milk in bottles. it is best to
have him deliver it directly to you
or your servant, and You should
see that it is put on ice immedi-
ately and kept cold.
''rhe practice of putting out nm
uncovered pitcher or other vessel
for milk the night before cannot
be too strongly condemned.
such a pitcher or vessel, exposed
to the dust and dirt of the street,
| will collect thousands of germs be-
| fore the milk is put into 1t. Many
Of these may be dangerous to life
and health, besides which they will
certainly cause the milk to sour in
| a short time and become unfit for
use. The purest milk received In
such vessel may become as bad
| in a, few hours as the worst milk
from dirty farm.
f"If you are compelled to stand
out vessel to receive your milk.
provide yourself with several glass
preserve jars, which should be used
for this purpose only. They should
be kept we'll washed and aired, as
4 above described. Get Jars with
clamp tops. Those with screw tops
are hard to keep, properly cleansed. :
DO not use the rubber ring which
comes with most Jars, as 1t is diff
cult to keep clean. and the jar &
will be sufficiently tight without 1t.
Instead of preserve jar, a bowl,
1 covered by plate, may be used.
A pitcher canot be tightly covered
on account OF the projecting spout"
