OF
MILK SAMPLES
FOOD COMMISSIONERS DUNCAN
MAKES A REPORT OF RESULTS
OF HIS WORK.

Food Commissioner R. A. Duncan
yesterday reported to the Board of
Health the results of some of his in
spections of milk in Honolulu. His re-
port said:
"A number of complaints have been
received respecting sickness caused by
drinking milk. Cases have been dis
tributed all over town, and for a few
days, around the 10th of September,
was very serious. Since that outbreak
number of cases have been reported
to me, but not in as great number as
at first Whether these cases have
resulted from drinking infected milk is
not definitely known, as a number of
similar cases have occurred where no
evidence of milk having been used was
obtained. Where milk has been used
and sickness resulted on investigation
1 found that all the milk was produced
by a single dairy. This dairy was ina
spected by Chief Sanitary officer, Dr.
Pratt, Inspector Myhre and myself.
and number Of insanitary conditions
found, which are being abated
1--WE have at present NO inspection of
diaries, or, at least only a casual one.
On consultation with Dr. Pratt. during
your absence Mr.. Myhre, who is ia
miliar with the daires or Honolulu,
was placed under my orders for daddy
inspection purposes, and a serious at
tempt was made to compel dairymen
to keep their places reasonably clean.
The work is started and l request, if
possible, that it may be continued.
your Food Commissioner is always
receiving complaints about milk curd-
ing or heating. This is due to Inside
contamination and such milk is always
considered impure, or, at least, alb
normal. Red milk (due to specific bac-
terial infection) and Shiny or ropy milk
has also occurred in Honolulu These
/ conditions can be prevented by clean
illness.
"About twenty milk dealers have sig
nifed their intention to make their
diaries sanitary; some others will have
to be condemned, as location and build
ings are unsuitable for the purpose. q
