ICE CREAM FROM souRED

The Iowa agricultural expert
ment station has developed an
ice cream made from soured
milk instead Of sweet milk. This
is superior to the ordinary ice
cream not only In the same re.
spects as buttermiIk is superior
to sweet milk, but because the
select culture used in the deyel-

Ice cream made from properly

WASHINGTON GARAGE
GENERALIZATION IS
OBJECT OF CHANGE
Commissioners Decide to AL
ter Regulation Governing
Automobile Buildings.

Following a hearing at which argu-
ments for and against the proposition
were presented, the Commissioners to-
day decided on the adoption OF the
amendment to the building regulations
providing for the building of public
garages. The regulation, which will go
into effect Immediately, provides that
in streets or alleys where a garage is
already in lawful operation, another ga
rage of similar class may be established
within thirty-fve feet, without the re-
quirement Of consent of adjoining prop
erty owners. Under the former regula-
ton the consent of seventy-flve per cent
of property owners within 200 feet of the
proposed street garage was necessary,
and for the establishment of an alley
garage the consent of two-thirds of
property owners within a dadlus of 80
feet.
Congressman Ernest w. Roberts of
Massachusetts, opposed the regulations
on the ground that property owners
ought not to be deprived Of the privi-
lege Of protesting against the establish
ment of an alleged nuisance. Similar
arguments were advanced by r. Ross
Perry, who declared public garages
should be confined to the business Sec
ton of the city and not permitted to
further encroach on residential dis
tricts.
Pointing to the recent increase in the
numtcr OF automobiles in the District
Attorney II. Prescott galley urged the
adoption Of the regulation in the in
terest Of the business fnsn and owners
CT machines who he said. must have
q convenient place in which to store
their cars.
TIE regulations were proposed 10
Norris Hacker, inspector of buildings
The argument of Mr.. Hacker Is thai
the regulation will be for the good oi
the greatest number: that II will en-.
courage The Capitalization of garages
and prevent thar distribution in al
sections OF the city.
