That Virginia has taken rank with

States in establishing and maintaining
cleanliness in the production and
handling of foodstuffs for the protec-
ton OF the health of the public Is
shown by tho second annual report
OF William y. Saunders, dairy and

Not cnly in Richmond. but through

In his report, Commissioner Saun-
ders states: The Improvement in the
sanitary conditions OF bakeries is wor-
thy OF special mention. New build
ings have been erected, old shops re-
modelled and bakeries formerly in
Easements have been brought out of
the cellars and are now well lighted
and well ventilated"

baking companies have erected new
plants. equipped with all modern de-
vices for the manufacture OF bread,
pies, cakes. buns. etc, under the most
sanitary methods.
Richmond has five ice cream fac
tories. All were examined and the
| inspectors reported each in good
condition. There are seven cold stor-
reported good" a condition which
is remarkable in view of the filthy
and dangerous state in which some
cold storage plants are conducted In
other cities.
No Water in Bivalves.
Commissioner Saunders has NO.
overlooked oysters. and of these deli
caeies he reports: The esta blishments
preparing oysters and crabs have been
! required to provide better sanitary
conditions and proper sterilization OF
all packages in which such products
are handled.
The practice of shipping and keep
| ing oysters in contact with ice has
been objected to because In such con.

and the onsumer does not get the
value for which he pays. Oysters
