the feasibility of wrapping bread when 1t
is taken from the oven, SO that 1t can be
delivered to the consumer without the ex-
posure to all sorts Of contamination Incl
dent to the present method of distribu-
ton. On behalf of some Of the local
bakers ii was alleged that it would be
impossible to wrap bread when taken
from the oven without interfering with
it's palatablity and digestibiiity. and FOR
that reaso., a practical inquiry into the
subject vas undertaken by the health de-
partment.
supply of "ten-pound onion skin pa
per-" light wax paper" and an unsized
paper known to the trade as ''thirty-two-
pound newspaper" was procured and
loaf of bread as taken from the bakers
oven wrapped iE each kind and loaf kept
unwrapped. A! periods varying from
twenty four 20 seventy,two hours after
coming from the oven the bread was ex-
amined. Il was found that when unsdzed
paper was used the wrapped bread was as
good and even better at the end of twen-
ty-four torrs tran the bread that had re-
mained unUrapped, and was in equally
good condition a the fresh loaves-
DIR. Lynch calls attention to the TACT
that "a the bread be wrapped the labels
that are now placed upon the bread itself
can he Esed 70 seal the wrappers, and In
that way the af1xing of the labels, which
seems to be Objectionable to many people,
san be done away with.
