Mr.. oyster says that it is clean, good
milk that he pasteurizes. milk that most
dealers would consider more than good
enough FOR market Just as it comes
into his dairy. 1t is with Mr.. Oyster
not a case Of merely destroying disease
germs by pasteurization and letting the
quality Of the milk take care Of itself.

milk free from all possibility OF disease

Pasteurizing Process.

On the second floor of the plant,
meanwhile, the pasteurizing process is
going on. The milk flows into the pas
teurizing plant in long pipes. The res
ervoir is divided into eight compart-
ments, which are alternately filled and
emptied. Into the first Of these. for in

thing. Into the first compartment comes

The commercial pasteurizing process
involves merely The bringing Of the
milk to the desired temperature. and
then cooling and bottling it. BY that
process it is impossible to kill all thu
disease germs.
At the Chestnut Farms Dairy the
milk. after being pasteurized, flows over
a refrigerating machine. which cools it
to about thirty-three degrees. The pipes
of this machine are, chilled by brine
being forced through them. Before the
milk is cooled-in fact, even before pas

Necessity for Care.

The necessity of having the ut

source of the milk supply, and the
handling and marketing of it, there
fore, is only too manifest Wash

that is being waged for pure food,
and it is altogether appropriate
that this city have a dairy where

such in Washington. Mr.. Oysters

For one thing, Mr.. Oyster himself has

cations into milk problems which have
been carried on by experts employed by
the Agricultural Department He has
utilized this knowledge to good purpose,
and has done considerable investigating
on his own account. This has caused
him TO be regarded as an authority on

How Il Is Marketed.

Nowhere else in the District is such
care used in the marketing OF milk.
The dangers to the reckless consumer
are many, but where these precautions
are taken there remains only the fresh.
sweet milk. free from bacteria, TO nour-
ish the young and cid who use it. Ac-
cording 10 Mr.. Oyster. improper pas

In his plant. the thirty minutes during
which the milk is subjected to the proc
ess kill all bacteria, and improve the
digestibility Of the milk, and at the
same time the process does not injure
the favor. This plant is the only one
in the District, so far as can be learned,
which sterilizes all bottles used It is
the only perfect pasteurizing plant
in Washington. and is one Of the six
or seven that exist in diaries anywhere
in the country.
The temperature Of the pipes which
chill the milk. as well as those which
keep the storage rooms cold. is regu-
lated by machine in the basement,
which forces the brine through the
pipes. The power for this. and fer all
machinery in the building. is furnished
by electricity. This is another detail
arranged on behalf OF sanitation. The
milk is kept at temperature of from

above freezing.

health giving as nature intended it
should be.
This plant today is in perfect
working order, moving with clock
like smoothness and seeming sim
plicity. But to bring it to the pres
ent point Of excellence several
years work and the expenditure Of
"a large amount Of money have been
necessary. By the time that the
neat rows of capped milk bottles
are shipped in boxes on the teams
of the dairy, skilled labor. mechan-
ical ingenuity, and scientific test
have all played their respective
parts.
Sources Of Supply.
To begin with, the milk arrives
at the Chestnut Farms Dairy in
great cans which the farmers use
exclusively for Mr.. Oysters bust
ness. These are washed in running
water, and then sterilized with live
steam and thoroughly dried over
night before they are sent back to
the farms for refilling.
At the farms from which the milk
comes to the dairy, all of the mod
ern methods of sanitation are in
vogue. Time was when the farm
ers resented the urgings of con
sclentiOus milk dealers to observe
all the up-to-date forms Of cleanIi-
ness, but that time passed long ago.
Mr.. Oyster solved the problem as
far as he himself is concerned by
contracting for the entire products
of the farms selected and paying
therefor little higher price than
the milk producers had been accus-
toned to receive. Nowadays the
mixers are Obliged to keep them
selves and their uniforms scrupu-
lousy clean, the COWS are kept
clean, the milk cans are sterilized.
Furthermore, the COWS are being
continually inspected for disease,
and if there is any suspicion that
all is not well their milk is not
sent to market The workers are
obliged to report all illnesses in
their families, and if any contagious
or infectious disease develops they
are not allowed to have anything
to do with the work of supplying
milk to the dairy.
