One of the most modern diaries

was shown through the buildings by
Mr.. Gilbert Mcmillan, an expert
dairy and stock man, who is in
charge of this department. The
large dairy barn is a model for clean
illness and convenience. 1t is well
stocked with pure bred Ayrshire
cows, many of them imported and
the animals are indeed a fine look
ing lot. The milk is handled in the
most modern and sanitary manner
and cleanliness is the prime factor in
its care. This dairy furnishes milk
to the very best class of trade in
Aberdeen and gets the highest mar

A large horse barn also contains
several pure bred saddle horses re-
