CITY Food INSPECTOR Walter j.
Fra 5ier through his deputies. Tuesday

This action is in line with the decla-

few DAYS ago that hereafter milk
must come closely to the temperature
in the milk ordinance Heretofore the
city food inspector s Office has been Civ
ing milk coming into the city over tho
railroads % degrees grace. but here
after only 10 degrees grace in milk com
ing into the city over railroad trains
and 5 degrees grace in milk on retail
wagons will be granted. Milk show
ing temnerature of more than this
either will be seized and dumped or de-
natured, and if the dealers keep on
distributing milk above this latitude IN
temperature prosecutions will follow,
Mr.. Frazier says:
Results of Warning,
That the warning issued last week
has worked excellent Improvement, how
ever, is shown by temperatures taken
Tuesday. Samples of milk from the
Family Vienna, Glover Leaf. Flag,
Hill Farm, Dahl Brothers, Fred II.
Eldredge and Independent dairies sun
day showed temperatures ranging from
10 60 66 degrees, while samples taken
from these dairies Tuesday showed a
maximum temperature Of only 80 de-
grees, ( degrees above the standard
fixed in the ordinance. but l degree
lower than the latitude of degrees
granted retail wagons, Only two Of the
dairies showed temperatures below the
standard Sunday. whereas Tuesday five
showed temperatures below the stand
ard, while one sample showed the stand
ard temperature Of 80 degrees.
The Eagle dairy last week scored 6S
degrees. Tuesday the score was 66 de-
grees, and three gallons of this dairy IS
milk caught on delivery wagon wcre
denatured. The Primrose dairy showed
a temperature of 6S degrees last week
and temperature Of 70 degrees Tues
day, and ten quarts, or all that was
left on the wagon of this firm that
was scored, were dumped.
Other Good Catches.
Deputy Food Inspector Starbuck
caught twenty gallons consigned from
the Union dairy company at Vineyard
to the Jensen Creamery comoany here,
and ten gallons from this same COM
panY TO the clover Leaf dairy mere aC
the Denver 6 Rio Grande depot Tues
day that showed temperatures rang
ing from SO TO 70 degrees. and
dumped both consIGnments. Twenty
gallons consigned from the Stewart
Creamery company of Springville to the
Glover Leaf here showed n temperature
of 20 degrees, and was dumped.
A truck load of milk from Layton.
consigned to McHan Brothers here, was
found in good shape at the depot, but
was allowed to stand in the sun an
hour before being called for. This
raises the temperature 10 the prohibit
tive point, Mr. Frazier says, and the
practice must he stopped
Several of the milk vendors at lay
ton have pooled together to build
milk cooling depot there, but some of
the dealers refuse to come into the pool.
and one dealer has declared that he
wouldn 7 come in. as the city food in
spector here would catch consignment
only once in while above temperature
and destroy it, and the loss this way
would be much less than the cost of
paying his proportionate share Of
establishing and maintaining the milk
depot, Needless to say the city food
inspector will keep a keen eye on this
Dealers milk.
