.DA|RYMEN DEREL|CT
IN SECURING LICENSES
Only About Half Of Those In
Business Comply With
Milk Ordinance
MEASURE NOW oPERATIv

Anne Arundel county dairymen are
derelict in complying with the proyi-
sions of the milk regulation ordinance
tassed by the Mayor and City Council
few months ago. and which became
fully operative on January /.
This is shown by the records in the
Office of the city clerk. Scarcely 20 of
the dairymen who bring their milk to
the city to sell, have applied for the
required license, whereas. according
to County Agent George W. Norris
there are 40 dairies in this vicinitv
who place their supply on the local
market.
Applies To Retailers, Too
The new ordinance. which is quite
stringent in its regulation of the sale
of milk. requires also that all mer-
chants retailing milk TO their Gus
toners take out a license from the
city clerk According to a census
made by the Annapolis Creamery
Company. 50 stores in Annapolis
handle this necessity. but of this
number only thirty-five have taken
out the stipulated licenses. Whether
the other merchants are going to
scratch the health,giving fluid from
their list of supplies. or are hoping to
evade the provisions Of the ordnance
time. or an investigation by the city
iicials. alone will disclose
It has also been found Hut that an
other requirement of the milk ordi-
nance is being treated with contem5i
by those interested. This is the ] W
that all milk sold in Anne Arundel
county must come from tuberculin-
tested herds only. II has leaked ont
that there are several dairymcn
whose cows are not tuberculin-tested
though this is blamed upon the failure
of the necessary officials to respond TO
calls for the test in time to comply
with the time limit of the new ordi-
nance.

Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1923-12-20
Christmas Greetings from the Review

with it's future advancement and progress
While it has not been possible to illus
trate all of the many changes that have
taken place in the appearance of the town
since we first became familiar with it,
the accompanying views taken in differ
ent parts of the business and residence
sections, will clearly show that the pro-
gress of the past few years has been of
the substantial and permanent type indie
ative of all expanding towns in their evolu
ton from small and inactive centers of
population into the greater ones from
which often cities grow, and tell palmer
than words what the Eagle River of the
present implies.
In point of size this is the largest news
paper edition ever published in Villas
county, involving large amount of extra
work by the Review office force to whom
we extend especial thanks for their inter-
est manifested in making it success. We
also wish to thank those who have furnish
ed the special articles, and who from
their familiarity with their subjects have
written them much better than we could
have done. All in all, it will be found
good and instructive reading, that we
hope will do credit to the place in which
the Review has been patronized for near
ly two score years.

Eagle River review. [volume] (Eagle River, Wis.) 1890-1927, 1923-12-20

The annual Christmas Number of the
Review is given to our subscribers and
readers in this issue. In addition to the
usual Colored Cover that has been Re-
view feature for several years with illus
trations and reading matter symbolical of
the Yule Tide season, there is added an
extra edition of eight pages descriptive
Of the present Eagle River and different
activities of Villas County, and is the first
comprehensive attempt, we believe, to list
all of the various business enterprises
that have in the past and do now, tend
to make Eagle River one of the best and
fastest growing towns in northern Wis
consin. With the industrial activities now
in operation, steadily growing agricul-
tural development taking place in the
surrounding territory, combined with it's
many recreational advantages that bring
thousands of visitors here every year,
many of whom are closely allied to the
village and vicinity by reason of large in
vestments in homes in which they spend
from three to six months of each year,
there is every reason for believing that
Eagle River has only started on it's career
of growth and prosperity, and it is with
much pleasure that we devote large
part of this edition to those who have
had large share in making Eagle River
what it is and who will have much to do

main floor and on three sides of the
gymnasium is a gallery which greatly
increases the seating capacity of the

err room which is at present being
used as a text book library but which
can also be used as banking room.
The heating and ventilating system
used in the building is of the direct
indirect type, heat being furnished to
the various rooms by both direct and

alton, which insures a positive Venti-
lation, comes from tempering and re-
heating coils located in the fan room
in the center of the basement through
the medium of large fan which is
driven by a fifteen horsepower motor
Fresh air free from dust particles and
disagreeable or communicating odOrs
is taken into this fan through two
