Provide a clean cool recept- acle, away from sun or heat, in which the driver can put your bot- tles of milk em delivery. A tin bin large enough to hold the day's sup- ply placed in • a wooden box lined with sheet asbestos or felt, three behest larger on all sides than the tin box and this space filled with saw dust or ne shavings and with a cover lined on the inside will serve as a receptacle. 2. Take the milk into the house. as soon as possible and put in the coldest place available. 3. Wipe the tops of the bottles with a clean damp cloth. 4. Keep milk closely covered. A tumbler inverted over the top when the paper cap is removed answers as a good cover. 5. Pour out of the bottle only what is needed for the meal or occasion. Do not pour any back. 6. Have all pitchers and other ut- ensils serupulously clean. And the following is an extract from a set of regulations compiled by the Local Board of Health and sub- mitted to the Provincial Department of Health for Approval: "As soon as milk bottles shall have been emptied of the milk or cream by the consumer or retailer they shall be promptly well washed out, first with cold water, then with hot soap -suds, followed by plain hot wat- er and shall be returned to the dis- tributor in a dry and clean condition," MRS.
