R|CHMOND'S milk
OF BEST QUALITY
CITY BOARD OF HEALTH DE-
CIaAIsES LOCAL SUPPLY IN
ExCELLED ANYWHERE.

After having heard from some Of
the most noted dairymen In this
vicinity, including Messrs. Beattie and
Bellwood, the city board of health
last night went into executive ses-
SION and announced afterward to the
press that at another meeting rules
would be adopted by which the dairy
men and private citisens might regu-
late tho quality Of their milk.
In view Of the fact that the State
board of health had found "a number
of cows of tubucular tendencies
within a radius of a few miles Of
Richmond. and had ordered them
rlaughtered. Consideration arose
among the dairymen.
The city health board has adopted
rules and regulations concerning the
quality of milk supplied Richmond
consumers. which IL conceded by every
city IN the country as being the best
In the country.
Dir. Il. c. Levy, the local chief
health officer, has spent a number OF
years In getting the local milk sup
ply up to the highest standard. His
generalship and his directions have
resulted favorahly to the people OF
Richmond.
But In order to carry out State
regulations the dairymen will have
to have all their cattle examined and
tested on or after September !, 1916.
Some Of the dairyynen protested that
this would be too short q time, be-
cause there would be no opportuni-
ties>fn that time to raise more cat
tie, and 1t Is one OF the rules Of the
department. that II cow is found
tubuculary afflicted 1t must be slaugh-
tered. The meat is then sold to
butchers. and Is eaten by the citizen.
but no question Is raised on this point.
1t was shown at the meeting last
night that ~ out OF $50 herds in
this vicinity had already been tested.
Many of them We're tested by the
department OF animal industry. and
others by private veteranarians
There Is a sufficient supply of milk
now coming into the city, bur with
the wholesale slaughter Of cattle. 1t Is
feared by the city board of health,
there may not be. That IL why the
health board has fixed upon more
than year hence for the official
tests. SO that all the dairymen may
prepare themselves.
The board did not feel that COM
pulsory sterilization of milk should
prevail But 1t agreed that any one
might steri1ize his own milk Il he
so choose, and decided to issue plain
instruction as 10 the best manner in
which this might be done
The board was unanimous In its ex-
preston that the milk supply OF Rich
mond could not be excelied and II
was further stated that the consumers
Of milk need have no fear as TO its
purity.

FRENCH WORKING
CLASS PROTESTS

Paris, July 27.---There was an anti
militarist demonstration OF consider
able gravity here tonight. 1t In
volved collisions all the evening be-
tween two thousand police and regi-
ment OF Republican Guards and twen-
ty-five thousand manifestants, who
were massed along the main boule-
wards for mile and Il half.
The trouble arose from an an
nouncement in this mornings Batiaiie
Syndicaliste summoning the people to
meet in demonstration IN front OF
the office OF the M&tn. The police
were surprised by the magnitude OF
the demonstration and only took SUI
perficial precautions. They removed
tables and seats outside the cafes.
Shortly before o'clock the working
class of the manifestants came from
the poorer quarters, and 1t required
rush Of several hundred policemen
toward the Matin office to keep order
The police cut off traffic and pro-
tected the building
This angered the crowd who stopped
singing the 'InternEtionale." and
other anti-militarist songs and shout
ed: 'Vive la paix." and "A bas la
guerre." The mob then began indi-
viduaI fights with the police. and there
were some concerted PUSHES Through
the police lines. At $3.50 the boule-
wards 800 yards beyond the Matin
office were a seething mass Of rough
ly dressed workmen with sprink-
ling of apaches. They were battling

licemen were badly beaten up.

that a double line of the guards rushed

time,

wieldly cars at a rapid rate into the
crowd Many Windows were shat
tered. and a number of the mob sur
fered cuts, which gave work to the
Red Cross nurse who followed i'm
mediately behind the double line.
At IL o'clock when the fighting
was most fierce the police directed
the long accumulated automobile traf-
fic through the lines Of the mob and
forced the people toward the curb.
The crowd retaliated by puncturing
the tires with jackkntves and slash
ing the inner tubes.
The crowd seemed to be composed
of serious anti-militarists. There
were no aggressive units. A Few
isolated patriots started the Mar

the mob, and told to go to bed, but
they were not molested. 800
