Vulgar Milk A London boy of about thirteen went on

Whit Monday to see milked in a model cowshed. After watching for some while, he to the land girl who was milkmaid: " Can one drink that sort of after it's been properly purified? " She replied that all milk was " sort of milk." " Garn," said the incredulous town-boy. " I know densed milk isn't." The pity is that most natural production looks the urban eye dirty or vulgar—so secondary can life become. Even good brown earth is dirty and the birth of a lamb vulgar.
