MILK ADULTERATION

tail dealers, Int also To look out for
skinned milk, which IL shipped into
the city in large quantities, Every few
nights they mako raid on tho various
milk depots, and there test tho milk
Just as IL IL received. Thousands of
quarts Of skinned milk have been
thrown overheard or into the sewers.
Many Of tho small groccrs who retail
milk are clever at ndultemting, and
greatly annoy the inspectors, They
keep lactomctcrs, and know tho stan.
darl required by tho board of health.
They arc also aware that by skimming
milk its specific gravity increases, ow.
ing to the lightnoss Of cream, and that
by watering ii the specific gravity de-
crcases. They take advantage OF both
these facts, and after removing half the
cream from can of milk, place therein
the lactomctcr, and then pour in water
until the proper standard is reached,
They have other methods by which they
cheat their customers, but this Is the
most used. Tho lactometer, II il said
has been the cause Of 80 much skinned
milk being brought into the city
There are many dealers who think that
il the lactometer stands high, the inspec-
tor will be deceived, and use skinned
milk for diluting the good milk, instead
OF water, which they were wont to use
before the lactomcter came into vogue.
The milk inspector does not rely sole
ly on the lactomcter Flo goes into the
store where the milk is sold and asks to
see the stock, The milk is usually kept
in cans holding from forty to fifty
quarts, which fit in leo boxes. The in
spector stirs up tho fluid, 80 that the
cream which may have risen to the top
is thoroughly mixed in with the body of
the milk. He then fills the lactomcter
glass and places it in his lactomoter. If
the lactometcr stands from l04 to 113,
and the milk looks and tastes rich, it is
passed MS good. If it looks thin and
blue or appears to have been doctored,
an eight.ounce bottle is filled, and is
afterwards analyzed chemically. If the
lactometer stands between 1l3 and 100
or below lOi, it is suspected, and sam
pies are taken for analysis. When it
stands about 100 it is usually skinned
milk, and when below 104 it is usually
watered milk. There are Thermometers
attached to the lactometcrs, and the
temperature of the milk is calculated at
81 deg.-New York. S,m.
