The San Francisco call., 1897-11-28

the milk from uninspscted cows is tuber-
culous, but they do say that such milk
may be bad.
The following dairies sell milk, say the
doctors, from COWS that have not been in
spected, and which may therefore be dis
rased: Blair's ranch, Empire Dairy,
King Jersey Dairy, Joseph and J icob
Loretz, Lamp & Farno Dairy, A. Rayes
and A. G.. Fav. Fay'> dairy was formerly
owned by Supervisor Talcott his brother
in-law, who Is supposed to have deep in
terest in it stil, II is the man accused
by the doctors of manipulating the deal
by which the sanitary laws were repealed. i.
The fun will begin when there is an a.
tempt 10 have boycott declared on all
milk from uninspected COWS. The COWS
OF the foregoing dairies at present furnish
milk for large part of the Oakland milk
supply. Sucn thing ao rigid methods
may yet be resorted to. 1t would cause a
sensation If some of these COWS should be
pounced down upon and slaughterei un-
der the orders OF the State Board of Health,
which is working in conjunction with the
local officers.
The scandal that is ever a stencn In the
nostriis OF the doctors and sanitary Off
GERS Is the repeal OF he Board of Super
visors ordinance. This ordinance was
passed about a year ago. 1t was not in
existence long, as 1t was not pleasing TO
Supervisor Taicott, one OF the dairvmen
OF the board. Il provided for the slaughter
OF al milcn COWS and other animals al
t1lc;ed with tube -culos.s and like diseases.
Since The defeat of mis- sanitary law,
which Is sim 10 laws in force In NJ in
neapo is, 81. LOUIS New York and many
cities OF the country, the Board of Health
o. Oakland has been working under a
general law, which prevents parsons deal
ing in milk from adu. terating ii. All in
spectlonS which are made are at the re-
quest of the diaries that believe in the pro-
cess These dairymen pay for the spec
tions themselves.
The following are on the official list as
inspected dairie-, and the board certifies
that the milk FROM such daires is free
from tuberculosis: J. a. Bliss, Morgan

Drs. Dunn, Kelchum. Pierce, Ruggles,
lO"ACJ niid w dS Nell dS scores OF
other reputable Oakland physicians have
signitied their approval of tn sanitary
laws advocated by the local Board of
Health. They wonder why Supervisor
Talcott was able TO induce the board to
repeal the law that gave officers power to
kilf infected cattle. Speaking of the mai
ter DIR. Woolsey said yesterday: There
should be a clear, simple law by which
cattle can be slaughtered whenever the
tuberculin test shows them to be infected
| cannot see why IT is that the law we
bad was repealed. 1t is weIl-known fact
that bad m TX is source cf sease Con-
sumption is disseminated in milk from in
fected cattle. Something should be done
10 protect the little children of our COM
munity from the dangers that lurk in bad
milk. 1t is difficult to tell just what per-
centa2e OF consumption arises from the
Use OF bad milk, but it is very large. 1t
seems strange that people do not take
