cense was: Lucille Frances Cameron,
age 1S years, residence Cook county.
| Accompanying Johnson vas his
eyer-present white valet, Joseph Levy.
He ushered the pugilist to the proper
| office and out again to the automobile.
Johnson appeared to enjoy the unus-
uai (for him) attraction he was pro-
viding and his lips were parted in a
smile that showed his gold teeth.

contaminated by germs and to absorb
stable odors. The best practice is to
remove the milk to the dairy house as
soon as each COW is MIXED. Milk
should be cooled Immediately, SO the
dairy house should be provided with
proper facilities for this purpose.
While the dairy house should be
conveniently located so that the milk
ers do not have a long walk from the
barn, it must be SO placed that it is
free from communicating surroundings.
It should be built on a well-drained
spot, and the drainage of the dairy
house itself should be carried we'll
away from the building. If possible
the ground should slope from the
dairy house toward the barn, rather
than from the barn toward the dairy
house.
The principal purpose in building a
dairy house Is to provide a place
where dairy products may be handled
apart from everything else. To carry

the interior Of the building so that
utensils will not have to be washed
in the same room where the milk is
handled. Thorough cleanliness must
always be kept in mind: therefore
there should be no unnecessary lodges
or rough surfaces inside the building,
so that it can be quickly and thor
oughly cleaned. Ventilators are neces-
sary to keep the air in the milk room
fresh and free from musty and unde-
sirable odors, and to carry on steam
from the wash room. Windows are Of
prime Importance, as they let in fresh
air and sunlight, and facilitate work.
In summer the doors and windows
should be screened to keep out flies
and other insects.
It is imperative that there should
be plentiful supply of cold, running
water at the dairy house. II 1t is not
possible to have a regular water sys-
tenn, the supply may be piped from an
elevated tank fed by a hydraulic ram,
engine. windmill or hand pump.
