SEDIMENT FOUND
IN TESTED MILK
Madison Dairymen Surprised
When Shown Foreign Sub

Especial to the Evening star.I

MADISON, May IA. = The local
Board Of Health surprised dealers
who deliver milk in this town, ac-
cording to the report of Health In.
spector S. Fred Burnet, at meeting
of the Board of Health last night.
Mr.. Burnet reported that the dealers
were astonished when they were
shown specimens of the sediment
found in bottles of milk they had de-
hvered to local residents. They all
denied that the milk they had de-
liz cred contained such an amount Of
sediment, and each insisted he was
running an up-to- date dairy.
At the last meeting of the Board of
Health it was decided to invite the
milk dealers to visit the boards
rooms and see the specimens. 1t was
intimated that if they did not come
that coercive measures would have to
be employed This was not neces-
gary. The specimens are obtained by
straining a pint of milk and allowing
the sediment to dry 1t is proposed
to keep these exhibits in a glass case
for purposes of comparison.
The amount Of water in the Bunyon
pond was again complained of. Mem
berS of the board stated tnat 1t is
time that something be done about
this matter Howard Cole, the pres
ent owner of that land. was notified,
and he stated that he intends to sell
the property but will look into the
matter and see what can be done.
As the latest law provides for the
filling up of such places by the board
it was decided to call for bids ON the
work. The estimates will be received
at a special meeting of the board on
Saturday evening. After the pond is
filled the cost will be assessed against
the property.
Vital statistics for the past month
are four marriages. four births and
five deaths. The report of the treas
urer showed a balance on hand of
S149.o3. AS the expenditures neces~
sary exceed the balance, it was
moved and passed thatthe Borough
Council be asked for 5000 on account
of the boards appropriation.
