Mothers in Washington would rather
pay an advanced price for milk TO be
assured that it is free from tubercular
germs
A large percentage Of mothers-prob-
ably 80 per cent. Of them-are now 50
fearful of raw milk furnished them that
they have had recourse 10 condensed

They welcome and indorse any move

These are the results of extended in
vestigatiOns carried on among mothers
OF the Capital by representatives of The
Washington Times
The representatives Of The Times
started to ask of mothers the one uues-
ton, Would YOU prefer 10 pay higher
price for milk known to be free from

thrown open TO all producers and get
questionable milk at a lower price,
The results Of the inquiry were sur
prising.

II proved that the motheTS place 50
little confidence in the present milk

II developed many cases where ply
sicians had prescribed raw milk and
parents were already paying top-notch
prices for special milhs" supposed TO

ing process recommended b. a physi-

The investigation was undertaken as
result Of conflicting claims OF the
Health Department and the Milk Deal

vance in the price OF milk that would
result from making the tuberculin test
