having the simplicity which is one OF the
features Of the colonial or Georgian style.
The house will have an ample frontage on
18th street where 1t is intersected by New

small park, SO that the width OF the thor.

OFFER TO DA|RYMEh
May Have Herds Tested for
tuberculosis by Experts.
CAN ADVERTISE GUARANTEE
What Secretary Of Agriculture Said
Today.
WATER SUPPLY AT FARMS
Assistants to Go Into the Subject Very
Carefully-The Milk Supply
of the District.
WATER SUPPLY AT FARMS

Dairymen In Maryland and Virginia who
supply milk to residents of the District of
Columbia may have their herds tested for
tuberculosis free Of charge by experts of
the Agricultural Department. In case all
animals are found to be free from disease
or, in the event of all infected animals be-
ing disposed of. the dairymen may publicly
advertise that they have received a guar
antee' clean bill of health from the gov
eminent
This. in effect, was the statement made
by Secretary of Agriculture Wilson today
to Star reporter. The Secretary Is anx-
ious to do everything in his power, and to
see that the department goes as far as it
can in insuring the purity of the milk sup
ply of Washington. 1t is believed that
most of the reputable dairymen in the ter
ritory contiguous to Washington will take
advantage of this offer, believing that 1t
will help them very materially wfth~the
public.
1nducement Offered.
There is no way. of course, by which the
federal government can go into either CT
these states and compel dairymen to submit
the cows of their herds to the tuberculine
test So the inducement is offered that If
the herd Is found to be free from infection
or is made so after the initial government
test the owner may advertise the fact in
any way he may desire.
1t is the belief of officials of the Agri-
cultural Department that certain proper
ton at least of the typhoid fever cases of
the District are due to infection of the
milk supply. and they further believe that
a large percentage of the cases of tubercu-
losis from which young people suffer finds
its origin in infected milk from diseased
cattle
Water Supply at Farms.
For some time experts of the dairy divi-
sion of the department have been engaged
in an investigation of the local milk sup
ply, its sources and the conditions under
which it originates. Recently the Secretary
learned that sufficient attention was not
being given to the investigation of the
water supply at dairy farms near the city.
and he today instructed his assistants to go
into this subject very carefully. 1t is ex-
pected that the inquiry will be concluded
within three or four weeks, and the results
will then be published. In the meantime 1t
is expected that advantage will be taken
of the liberal offer of the department by
those dairymen of Washington who are suf-
ficiently enterprising to realize the posi-
bilities of trade gains that may result
from a governmental guarantee"
