6. Never use musty or dirty litter.

7. Allow no strong-smelling material in the cow-house for any length

of time. Store the manure under cover outside the cow-house, and

remove it to a distance as often as practicable.

8. Whitewash the cow-house once or twice a year; use gypsum in the

manure gutters daily.

weather sprinkle the floor.

11. Keep the cow-house and dairy room in good condition, and then

insist that the dairy, factory or place where the milk goes be kept

equally well.
