From the Cow.

Mrs. Morey, of Coney Island, New York, peddles milk, but she doesn’t keep a horse and wagon. Instead of that she drives her cow around to the houses of her customers and while they wait Mrs. Morey says, “So, Boss!” to the sleek-looking cow, and proceeds to milk the desired quantity. In this way each customer is assured that the milk received is fresh and free from adulteration. This custom of leading the cow from door to door was in common practice in this country many, many years ago, and In parts of Europe the milch cows or goats are still made to serve In the place of the modern milk wagon.
