AAA YIN AS4A
Herein is richness:
A New York city health inspector
went to q Chenango county farm and
prepared his inspectors report giving
the farm So per cent on a scale Of 100.
The defects pointed out were these:
The barn windows had not been
properly washed, the inside walls Of
the stable were not whitewashed,
horses were kept in the same barn
with the cows, the cows had not been
clipped, and their udders had not been
regularly washed with warm water
before milking.
Well
The farmer was getting less than 8
cents quart for his milk out of which
to pay a high feed bill. He was
obliged to get up before daylight every
morning to do the milking. He thought
over the inspectors report and CON
cluded he had reply coming.
Therefore he sent a letter to the
health department in which he gave
the city of New York a sanitary con
ditton of % per cent on a scale of 100!
ACCO "a COAbC VI lOC lnluSo liz SuS-
gested in his report:
The tearing down of rickety tene-
ments and fire traps where the light
of heaven never enters and fresh air
is a stranger
The providing of decent living quar-
tiers for the human beings that live in
cellars
The cleansing and disinfecting of
places where the poor are compelled to
labor and withdrawing the same.
The feeding of thousands Of school
children who go breakfastless to school
or supperless to bed.
The overhauling of the sewer sys-
tenn.
Making the city as sanitary, as well
lighted and ventilated for human be
ings as the Chenango county barns are
for cows.
That was what j. B. Brown, farmer
Of Chenango. wrote to the health de-
partment.
In q further communication to the
newspapers Mr. Brown said he would
be glad to battle his cows, build a sep
arate horse stable, calcimine his barn,
just as he would be glad to put hot
water heat and electric light In his
house, have mahogany piano, hard
wood floors, Persian rugs and an auto
mobile-if somebody would pay him
10 cents instead Of 21a cents for his
milk.
There is lot of common sense as
well as grim humor In Farmer Browns
retort.
Whatever the need Of better sani-
tary conditions on dairy farms, there
Is no excuse for the insanitary tone
ment shacks Of the large cities.
