PURE MILK
IS NOT WHAT
SOME DELIVER

q the summer time sour milk Is
TO be excused 70 some extent, but ii.
winter there ought 10 be a little
patience with that sort Of milk.
And yet there is complaint now. a
number Of people here are uneasy
about the kind Of milk their milk
man is bringing them. He delivers
It about 10 o'clock a. m. and before
night it turns sour. This milk il
supposed to be fresh from the cows
-milked the same morning 1t is Dc
liyered.
II is claimed the milkInadi has
been told about II, anil that he as
serts he can put something Iii it Is,
keep it sweet six days, aud to this
he adds that down at Grafton poison
is used to keep milk sweet. Heals9
is said to state that that method was
slow but sure death, and yet after
imparting that bit Of information.
he is said to assure patrons that re
can ana VIII put something. IN tie
milk to keep il sweet, if his patrons
80 desire.
1t seems TO the man who would
preserve his health and see that hc
gets what he pays for that some ae-
ton ought to be taken-in the inter-
est of pure milk. There ought to be
method to protect users from iiu-
position, deceit and cheat. The
milkmen ought Themselves to FORM
m association that would enable the
honest milkmen to protect them
selves against the dishonest and in
capable ones.
The subject-pf pure milk. sweet
milk, is far too Serious 10 treat light
" and legislation ought 10 be- passed
tending to bring about a condition,
in which there will be penalty
severe in its nature for disregard Of
the health Of patrons.
