What Certified Milk Means

en-. The pals, pans, bottles, every
thing that touches the milk, are ster-
ilized before using. The animals
are examined regularly by veteri-
naries to exclude tuberculosis or
any other disease. The mixers wash
their hands before milking, wear
freshly Numbered suits, and place
the milk in cooling rooms immedi-
ately. The milk is kept on ice until
it reaches the consumers kitchen.
and hence the increased price asked
for certified milk.
But what is the price of a cigar
each day as compared with health
insurance for your baby? Certified
milk is the cheapest food, and the
best on the market for children. It
is an injustice not to supply the
baby with 1t If he must live on the
bottle. Before many years all mar
keted milk will be certified. The
public will demand it.

pear that conditions of the various

the United States as a whole in con-
dition. The probabilities are. however.
that the truth is that Illinois CORE
