NEW GRADING FOR
MILK AND CREAM
Health Officer InVents System
Which Will Show Values
of Dairy Products.

A new idea in the keeping of the milk
and cream score card''-the grading OF
dairy products for the guidance of the
consumer is promulgated by DR.. WILL
lam c. Woodward, District health Off
Ger. and it will probably be accepted as
standard by many of the leading health
services of the nation.
The present score card, says DIR.
Woodward in an article published by
the Public Health Service, is all right,
as far as it goes. 1t deals only with the
condition of the cows and of the diaries.
and does not afford a basis on which to
found an opinion as to the wholesome
ness and nutritive value OF milk as il
reaches the consumer
Points Under New Plan.
The new method, already adopted by
the District. is as follows: One hundred
points are allowed for the dairy farm.
both equipment and management; 100
points are allowed for the milk dis
trfbuting station: 100 points for the cat
tie; 100 for the chemical analysis (for
nutrftire value), and 200 points for the
meteorological examination dealing
with the presence or absence of disease
germs in the milk and cream.
ne tOldl nuHlDtrs OF possible p0-nlS Is
600 IL there be a milk-distributing sta
ton, and 500 IL there be no such sta
ton. BY dividing the total number Of
points allowed by the total number of
points possible, a figure is obtained in
the form of a decimal fraction repre-
senting the grade of the milk.
Explanatory Notes Allowed.
Any unusual conditions bearing upon
the nutritive quality of the milk or of
it's wholesomeness. but not capable of
being reduced to a percentage basis, are
set forth in an explanatory note, If the
grade is computed during the continu-
ance of such conditions.
DR.. Woodward says the grading of
milk in the new method adds to the
cost of the milk inspection service, but
that II makes of practical value many
reports and figures now collected al
considerable cost. and then buried in
the official records without affording q
basis for intelligent action by the milk
supervising authority.

MARYLAND SENATE
FIGHT COMPLICATED
Entry Of William 1. Marbury
Into Fray, as Selection Of
Wilson, Adds to Mix-Up.

The Senatorial situation In Maryland
has been complicated by the entrance
into the race for the long term Of Will
liam L. Marbury. Of Baltimore.
Marbury has declared himself can
didate against John Walter Smith. He
says he enters the race at the solici-
tation of Woodrow Wilson.
Senator Smith already has announced
himself a candidate to succeed himself.
He is opposed by Isaac Lobe Straus,
former attorney general for the State.
Marbury is a leading independent
Democrat, and he says that in reaching
his decision to be a candidate he is
responding to the desire of the Presi-
dent-elect of the United States who
7 thinks that the stake to progressive De-
mocracy in this campaign is big enough
and vital enough to summons all DEM
ocrats to the firing line"
