 During the summer months. the cows, some siXty-five in number. are kept on the dairy farm which is locat. ed on the Knudson homestead some twelve miles from Juneau, near Lem- on Creek. The milk is brought to the dairy plant at five o'clock each morning and is poured into an auto matic bottle filler which fills nine bottles at a time. The bottles are then sealed with paper tops and are either put into the wagon or stored in the cooling room. which is kept at very low temperature all the time by means or running streams which Is piped from an underground source on Mount Juneau. If left in this room the bottles of milk are put into wire baskets and completely immers- ed in the icy water.

Juneau Public Library
Bv GERTRUDE E. MALLE7TE

On August 14. 1914. the Juneau Public Library opened its doors to the citizens of channel towns, and ev- CT since that date the reading room has been one of the most popular haunts in town.
 Perhaps no institution on either side of Gastineau Channel is the de Velopment of more persistent effort and more undying enthusiasm than the library which grew out of the de termination of the Draper Club to fur nish Juneau's citizens with reading material of the right sort and in the right kind of a place. The Draper Club began its campaign by a series of carefully planned public entertain ments. the first of which was the County Fair held on July 25, last year. This fair ran two evenings in the Elk's Hall and was one of the best received events of its sort ever held in the city.
 When the reading room was finally opened the people who visited 1t were surprised to find a very large collection of both fiction and more serious material, as we'll as a wide assortment of the best magazines, ready for their perusal.
 At the first of the present year the Draper Club gave over the manage ment of the library to a new Public Library Board and a thorough cam paign was made by the Board to se- cure subscriptions of $1 a year from every citizen in Juneau. This cam paign was very successful and in Ap- Til a mass meeting of citizens was called for the purpose of deciding up- on some permanent organization to care for the future of the library and Its maintenance. This meeting result ed in the formation of the Library as sociation, comprised of prominent citizens. and under their direction the work so we'll started by the Draper Club has been forging ahead continu- ally.
 Not long ago the Arctic Brother hood Club. shortly after beginning the construction of their new clubhouse, made to the Library Association a for

The Juneau Dairy
A Modern Institution

Enjoying not only the distinction of being the only modern dairy in the Juneau section of Alaska, the Juneau Dairy can justly claim for itself the appellation "cleanest dairy in Alaska" and in that superlative it ranks easily with the best throughout the country.
 About six years ago. William Ate mueller formerly of Missouri. and l.. H. Smith. a native of Virginia, came to Alaska. MT. Altemueller conduct ed barber shop for a year when he sold out and joined forces with MT. smith, who saw the possibilities that Juneau offered for an up-to-date dairy in the year he had been conducting one. Previous to coming here he had been identified with the largest and finest dairy at Washington, District of Columbia.
 Step by step they have built up their idea and today their plant on the Salmon Creek road tide lands sets high standard for all who may 20 into the same business in the Terri. tory. Everything of the dairy mech.
