In the course of the last nine months
of 1908 each of the 16 routes in the
county was travelled twice, and some
of them three or four times Several
of them require four days for the Jour

is made and it is forwarded by mail.
The zeal of the Washington County
library in spreading the use and love
of books has found expression in MANY
other ways. The Hagerstown school
children were first sent to the library
once week to listen to stories read
by an assistant. Then a school circu-

teachers throughout the country we're
invited to enter a race as book circu-
lators. The school at the village bear

This milk is inspected regularly by a
corps of milk inspectors connected with
the District Health Department, These
inspectors, in their report, substanti-
ate what the milkmen and farmers say
about the present insufficient grass sup
ply due to the drought. Their investi-

has had a disastrous effect on the milk

A larger portion than II the weather
had been cooler has spoiled, although
the railroads have exercised unusual
care to keep the product cool and prop

have added to the woes Of farmer and
milknian alike. and they naturally look
for relief shortly, either through a long
deferred rain or Increased prices.

SUNRISE BUILDING
CAUSES COMPLAINT
A. B. Adams Cannot Sleep Whe..
Ton of Bricks Are Dumped
Under Window.

To be awakened by a load of bricks
being dumped opposite your window at {
a. m, is considered by A 3. Adams,
of 1919 Monroe street northwest. to be
nothing short of damnable''
"On Monroe street nearly opposite our
house an Ope 'ator is building three brick
houses writes Mr. Adams. This morn
ing at AIS, two loads of bricks arrived.
and were unloaded. with the result that
no more sleep was obtained by any one
in our house. This is not the first time
that bricks have been unlOaded before
the street lamps were extinguished, and
I presume it will not be the last unless
you interfere as the building has Just
commenced.
such a practice would be bad enough
during the winter. but at this time of
the year It is nothing short of dam
nable."
