APPENDIX 309 
29. Bloody and Stringy Mik.—If milk from any cow is 
bloody and stringy, or of unnatural appearance, the milk from 
that cow shall be rejected and the cow isolated from the herd 
until the cause of such abnormal appearance has been determined 
and removed, especial attention being given in the meantime to 
the feeding or to possible injuries. If dirt gets into the pail, the 
milk shall be discarded and the pail washed before it is used. 
30. Make-up of Herd.—No cows except those receiving the

feet of it. 
34. The dairy building shall be kept clean and shall not be

35. The dairy building shall be well lighted and screened, 
and drained through well-trapped pipes. No animals shall be 
allowed therein. No part of the dairy building shall be used 
for dwelling or lodging purposes, and the bottling room shall be 
used for no other purpose than to provide a place for clean 
milk utensils and for handling the milk. During bottling this 
room shall be entered only by persons employed therein. The
