A Message on Sanitary Dairy Clarified MILK— Pure, Wholesome and Sweet—the milk that is safeguarding O’Neill health. Sanitary Dairy milk is the milk from Holt County’s finest herds— richer than law requirements—bettter than accepted standards—and ; still no higher in price than ordinary milk. ; A quality milk in its beginning, it is made a superior “safe” milk ji $ before it is brought to your door. Every drop is pasteurized, every particle clarified—and every essential of nourishment is absolutely retained. Ours is the only milk sold in O’Neill that passes these qualifications. The home of Sanitary Dairy milk is spic-and-span with sanitary sur roundings, spotless attendants, efficient machinery. Scientific process removes all sediment and impurities—properly directed heat kills all disease-producing bacteria. Truly, Sanitary Dairy Milk is a symbol of purity after it is clarified and pasteurized and it is immediately bottled in Sterile bottles with out the touch of human hands to keep it so. Next, it is chilled to re tain its enticing sweetness and then delivered to you with unfailing j regularity a perfect milk, absolutely pure and wholesome. Insist on Sanitary Dairy Milk It is distinctly superior and Its aded ‘’completne**" makes it a creation of dairy perfection. The Sanitary Dairy O’Neill, Neh .

A crowd soon gathered but it was too late to save the house. Th O. K. ranch is owned by Mr. Jeffers parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Jeffers.
