WOODWARD DESCRIBES
NEW GRADING OF MILK
Explains District Health De-
partment'S Methods of I'm
proving Diaries.

new method of grading milk and
cream which is followed by the District
health department is the subject of an
article by DR.. William c. Woodward,
the health officer of the District. in the
reports Of the United States public
health service issued today.
In this article DR.. Woodward explains
the health departments methods of rat
ing milk and cream, the rating of cat
tie, Of the dairy farms. dairies. chemical
analysis and archaeological analysis
THAT the Score card has been of
service in the improvement of sanitary
conditions on dairy farms, possibly few
article.
Fails in One Respect.
"It has failed, however. with respect to
one most important feature of milk con-
troll, dnasmuch as it does not afford a
sufficient basis upon which to found an
opinion as to the wholesomeness and
nutritive value of milk as it reaches the
cons liner And if the scores of dairy
farms give but an imperfect idea of the
quality of the milk as it reaches the con-
sumner, an attempted study of series OF
scores of dairy farms and milk shops,
chemical analyses and archaeological
analyses leaves the inquirer who Is not
technically skilled with respect to the
matter in a dazed and quite helpless con-
dition. In order to enable the consumer
to determine the quality of the milk he is
purchasing, the health department of the
District OF Columbia has devised a
method for grading the finished product.
ANY ideal system of grading milk as
delivered to the consumer must take into
consideration the condition of all OF the
farms from which milk is or is liable to
be derived, the condition of the milk
shop from which it is distributed. the
chemical analysis of the milk, and the
archaeological analysis. The result must
be expressed in manner easily under
stood by the public and in a way that
will afford ready and fair comparison be-
| tween milk from any number of sources.
Method of Grading.
1.-THE method Of grading milk adopted
by the health department of the District
Of Columbia is as follows: 100 points are
allowed for the dairy farm. both equip
ment and management; 100 points are al
lowed for the cattle; 100 points are allowed
for the Notwithstanding station, If the
milk is not distributed directly from the
farm; 100 points are allowed for the chem
lcal analysis, and 200 points are allowed
for the archaeological examination
THE total number of possible points is
GOO if there be a distributing sta
ton, and 500 if there be no SUCH sta
ton.
by dividing the total number of
points allowed by the total number of
points possible, figure is obtained in
the form of a decimal fraction repre-
senting the grade of the milk. Any
unusual conditions bearing upon the
nutritive quality of the milk or on its
wholesomeness, but not susceptible of
being reduced to percentage basis, are
to be set forth in an explanatory note.
If the grade is computed during the
continuance of such conditions; such,
for instance, as milk borne outbreak
of typhoid fever or other contagious
disease"

MIR. WILSON SENDS GREETINGS

Discussing "Our Splendid Past; It's
Ideals and Men" at the annual assembly
of the Order Of Washington at Rauscher's S
last evening, William de Hertburn Wash
ington of New York made a. plea for the
present generation to adhere Loyalty to
the principles and institutions of govern
ment which the fathers of the republic
have handed down as glorious heritage.
Although there are millions of men,
good and true. who have come to Amer
lea from foreign shores, Mr.. Washington
said there are thousands from the same
shores in the country today who are
only too willing to trample our own Stars
and Stripes in the mud and destroy our
government
In concluding, he pointed out that the
compatriots OF the order, being descend
ants of the men who founded the republic
should go forward in the effort to pre-
serve that which their ancestors had as
sisted in building so well. declaring thai
in this connection the country at the
present time is facing a crisis which must
be met fairly and squarely, and must be
preserved against those who would pull
down what has taken over a century to
build up.
