Forty pairymen From This County
Advised by state Officers as to
Bettering Product

Forty dairvmen whose products are
not up to state standards were sum
moned before state officers in the SUI
perwsorst room al the court house to-
day. The state officers here are A. r..
Lewis. inspector. and Or. David Klein,
ANALYST. both of Chicago
In June Mr.. Lewis collected samples
from diaries in this county and they
we're auaIvzed. T0day's conference is
the result of the examination Of sam
niles. No arrests have been made and
none is contemplated, although it
was stated that one dairyman had been
guilty Of diinting his product with Wa
ter. Most fault was found because OF
the presence Of an unnecessary guam
titv eff dirt in samples. Dairymen
were asked to use greater care in milk
ing. using small topped pals and
washing the udders at milking time
These precautions and immediate and
effective cooling We're urged
II was stated that the 40 daiTymen
seen today are not the only ones who
will be asked 10 take precautions
Another examination viii he taken
later to see that the advice given has
been acted upon.
