Prof. S. O. Dinsmore, head Of the
Pure Food Department in Nevada. has
examined all the milk sold in Reno
restaurants aud has found that not a
restaurant is selling unskimmed milk
and that they have no signs up telling
the public that the milk is skinned.
The law does not require that the res
taurants sell whole milk, which is milk
sfore it is skinned. but it demands
that when skinned milk is sold the
restaurant must so designate. The res
tanrants will be notified to post the
proper signs. and If they fail to do so
they will be prosecuted.

consin, Councilman w. W. Watt OF

a great dea. about the City Of Reno.
Despite the fact that he is City Ooun-

Council on many matters, limited at

nearly all public matters and things in
the city. As result, Watt has been
receiving much censure from other
Councilmen and from many of the pub
lie spirited citizsns Of Reno.
