we found an instance where a quart
bottle Of milk contained q milk ticket
that had been placed In the bottle
and the bottle refilled without being
thoroughly washed, although the
milk station that supplied the milk
demanded careful observance OF the
washing process from It's employees.
Our Investigations prove that a
one-service bottle, to be destroyed
when empty, would relieve much of
the present danger and materially re-
duce the percentage of mortality
among infants, and adults as well.
