presents only a small opening
into which dust and dirt may
fall from the air or from the

BY experience that the use Of a
pail Of this kind greatly reduces
the number Of bacteria In milk
from diaries where 1t Is used.

Every cow stable should have a
system of ventilation to keep the air
fresh and pure and the cows COM
Portable without exposing them to In
furious drafts. Bad odors In the
stable indicate that the ventilation is
deficient. At least 500 cubic feet OF
air space should be provided for each

proper ventilation In COW stables can
obtain information on this point by
applying to the dairy division of the

allies have not reached the old 1916
line, said March. He said the line
across the Marne salient is practically
the same as last Saturday. An Am
