illustrations of ways in which milk may
be spoiled by the consumer by improp-
er care.
Question of Price.
The question of price was discussed
and Professor Trueman declared that
the consumer would make no COM
plant if the price of milk were raised.
provided the milk was produced in a
manner to warrant the increase. But
| if the dairyman raises the price TO Z
cents a quart, make sure that he is fur
nishing you with 7-cent milk If he
produces his milk as it should be, it is
worth Z cents. and really can not be
| produced for or cents q quart He
declared that the time is coming when
every city will employ an inspector,
and when every dealer will be required
TO have a license from the state board
of health before he can sell his product
Arrnigns Restaurants.
He arraigned the restaurant and no.
tel men for furnishing skim milk at 3
cents glass, equal to about 20 cents
quart He declared the restaurant or
hotel keeper to be just as liable if he
milk as the dairyman or milk dealer is
when his product fails to meet the re-
quirements.
He said: Il wish tie 'staurants
would buy bottled milk a sell it to
their customers in the lal pack
age. | know of one town the state
where L can buy pint bott es Of milk
just as they were bottled at the dairy
of a reliable dairyman."
Speaking of the field here he said,
Rock Island is to be congratulated on
taking up the work of inspection of
milk so vigorously, and / predict that
under the leadership of the health
commissioner you will still further i'm
prove the product furnished to your
city. Those dairy:nen and companies
that are striving to improve and are
furnishing the people with a high grade
of clean milk should be supported and
encouraged"
Test is Witnessed.
Following Mr.. Trueman's discussion |
OF the subject, he made a test in the |
city laboratory in the city hail. to show |
MS hearers how the facts are learned |
about the quality of the milk. The test |
employed is known as the Babcock |
test. The specific gravity of the milk |
Is determined by means of an ordinary
lactometer Sulphuric acid is used to
dissolve the ingredients than butter
fat, and by means of mechanical de-
wise, the butter fat is separated and
brought to the top, where the percent
age may be determined. Mr.. Trueman
himself as pleased with the
given him here, and
cOmplimented the city Oh its laboratory
and the evident interest of Dr. Meyers,
city health commissioner, and the other
city officials, in the milk supply prob
ems.

Following are the results of the milk
-ests made by Professor Trueman dur
ng his visit in the city. The table
