White. head of the dairy at tke Connecticut Aariduitnral college, be says that the college authorities sec no evidence which connects any of the cases In the recent scarlet fever epidemic at the college with the milk supply. The statement made ey Mr white follows:
 An article printed Tuesday morning sa as sws esSs s. sn sosss sss vs sr.s the at the Connecticut Agricpiturai cole lexe was directly traceable to the milk supply. This was given ns the opinion of the local health officer and of Dr. Black of the state health de- partment- Dr. Black stated over the phone Tuesday that he had no defi- mite evidence and had not expressed himself
 thoroughly sterilized to prevent any such occurrence as mentioned. The following precautions taken are facts which should show that none of the cases could be traced to the milk stp- ply. From the time of the first case reported all milk has been pasteurixed and single service paper bottles have the disease is known to exist as well as at the inalrmary and all other places where there has been any sus- pected cases. Glass bottles used of other houses have been plaoe0 m tor- malin and are not connected with the milk handling and are later washed and stertlized. While 1t is true that the milk peddlsr developed the dis ease there has been only one case or the milk route and this one was taken ill two days before the peddler.
 Moreover the milk delivered else- where than to the families is delivered in cans, not bottles. It Is this case that was referred to as having beer responsible for other cases through empty bottles. At this particular house glass bottles were taken on the morn ing of the day that the quarantine went into effect. These bottles were not handled by the patient and had been washed and scalded at the home as well as at the dairy as above de. scrfbed. Bottles were not removed from that house and single service bottles were put into use at once. Int
 college authorities see no evidence which connects any case with the mill supply.
