KILL THE CROW.

Convincing evidence of the destructive and rapac- ious habits of the common crow enemy of game and song birds has been collected by Dr. B. Il.

TO INCREASE DAIRY PROFITS
Wideawake Dairy Farmers Have Seen
Larger Demand and Are Act
ing Accordingly.

Campaigns by large dairy companies
urging the public to drink more milk
Increase trade channels from the farm
to the city immeasurably. With this
increased demand. however, has come
an increased vigilance by health soci-
eties to safeguard the consumer.
Accordingly, wideawake dairy farm
ers have foreseen this condition and
have provided for marketing their
milk in a sanitary manner. Milk Is
probably more readily susceptible to
contamination than any other food
product
In order that milk may be delivered
in sweet, clean sanitary condition. it
Is essential that 1t be isolated In a
cool, modernly equipped building In its
progression from the cow to the mar
ket.
A good milk house is an invaluable
aid In the production of high-quality
The Glenwood post., 1923-02-08

milk. Concrete construction, either
monolithic or block, is ideal because it
Is permanent, verInin-proof and high
ly sanitary. Such a structure should
be located with regard to convenience,
but It is better that 1t be separated
from the stables to prevent the milk
from being tainted by stable odOrs.
A very serviceable milk house is a
type that can be constructed with the
use of circular monOlithic silo forms,
similar to the one shown In the illus
trntion. A foundation which extends
two or three feet into the ground or
to the limit OF frost is the first step.
The silO forms are used just as in
making a silo, except that boards must
be set In the forms to cut out portions
Of the wall which are to form door
ways or windows. Heavy reinforce
ment is not necessary, as-inch rods 20
inches on the center extending In both
directions being amply sufficient A
conlcal roof can also be constructed
similar to the type that Is employed In
sllo construction. A small ventilator
in the peak Of the roof with damper
that can be opened or closed, is a de
sirable aid in getting good circula-
tion of fresh air.
Every milk house should be provid-
ed with concrete cooling tank. the
depth Of which Is governed BY the
The Glenwood post., 1923-02-08

height of the cans It is desirable to
have the cans stand submerged as
much as possible. Circulating water
through the tank and around the cans
will keep the milk cool. To tighten
the labor of lifting and moving cans in
and out of the tank, part of Its depth
should be below floor level, and for
the same reason, the width of the
tank should be limited to convenient
arms reach, which is about that of the
diameter of two cans. The remain
der of the floor should be covered
with concrete made In single layer
four inches thick and troweled to a
smooth surface that will not harbor
dirt.
The concrete used throughout should
be of mixture of one part OF cement
to two parts Of well-graded sand to
four parts Of pebbles or broken stone,
with the exception of the cooling tank
which has a :1h :3 mixture to in
sure Its being watertight.

Eaton let himself think, idly. about

was spent, as he had gathered most
of her waking hours Of recent years

Strange, almost. as his own life! And

But, If her service to her father

If also she was intimate in his busl-
ness affairs, must she not therefore
have shared the cruel code which had
terrorized Eaton for the last four

BUILDING BUSINESS

Every business man wants more business
He wants every possible purchaser in his
trade territory to be his patron He ought
to use every possible instrumentality to get
that business.
Today the telephone is used by the most
progressive houses to get new accounts to
close contracts and generally to transact
business which formerly was handled by slow
mail or by the more expensive method OF
sending representative.
Study the possibilities of the telephone. or.
better still, talk to the telephone man about
how it can be made more useful and profitable
to you. There are low rates which may suit
your needs. Get acquainted with this valu-
