Some Excellent Rules Which Should be
Followed.
The state dairy bureau of Mas
sachusetts at a recent meeting
held in Boston gives the following
rules for the care of milk:
1. Take in milk and cream as
soo u as po; siole after being milk
ed or left at your door and place
in the refrigerator.
2. Keep milk and cream cold
until ready for use. The bottom
of the refrigerator is colder than
the ice container.
3. If ice cannot be had wrap
the bottle in a wet cloth and stand
it in a dish of water by an open
window out of the sun; evapora
tion of water will cool the milk.
4. Keep milk or cream covered
until wanted, and in the bottle in
which it is deliered; in open
bowls or pitchers they will absorb
odors from food and collect flies
and dust.
5. Pour from the bottle only
what milk or cream is needed for
immediate use.
G. Milk or cream that has be
come warm should never be
poured back into the bottle of
cold milk.
7. Utensils used for milk
should be cleansed with cold w a
ter and thep with boiling water,
thoroughly drained and allowed
to become cold before being filled
with milk.
9 Wash and return all milk
or cream bottles daily.
9. Have a separate quart of
milk for the baoy; what he does
not use others may have.

MRS. A. F. LITTLE'S
Summer Millinery.
Easter, 191!), has come and gone, .and with it winter and spring mil
linery. The Good Old Summer Time, is here, with its wealth of flowers and
fruits, and the discriminating buyer wants ber -hat trimmed In unison
with tho season.
It was to meet this demand that we made the second trip to tho east
ern cities, and are now busy unpacking and marking the finest, fresh
est, and most up-to-date millinery attractions It ever has been our
pleasure to ofTcr.
"Just too lovely for anything" Is-the Involuntary expression
of every one who sees them.
Maybe you want a large hat. We have them just what you want.
Then, our flowers and fruits and ribbons and all that go toward
making seasonably trimmed hats. Peaches, apricots, grapes, cherries
so natural that they fool the robins.
Then, finally and lastly, the price Is right. Just about half what you
would have to pay If you went to Harrisburg or Philadelphia; and It
would not be a bit better In quality or style either.
