DEFECT IN STRAlNING
OF MILK POINTED OUT
Health Department Investigating
Handling of Product Brought
Into City.

In its effort to have a high standard
of cleanliness in milk set for the Dis
trict. the health department has been
making a series of investigations as to
the handling and straining of the milk
sent into the city. Investigations thus
far conducted show that the straining
cloth is the weakest link in the chain
of sterilization which is necessary for
absolutely pure milk
Trained laboratory workers were sent
from the laboratory in company with
dairy farm inspectors to producing
farms within sixty miles of Washing
ton. for the collection of samples. 1t
was found that the ideas of the dairy
farmers varied somewhat as to the
meaning of sterilization as we'll as the
efforts put forth in plain ordinary clean
liness.
From results obtained it was found
that no matter how eleanly COW is
milkeA and even though absolutely
sterile containers are used until the milk
reaches the consumer, straining it
through bacteriologically unclean
cloth will contaminate it sufficiently to
make noticeable difference in the
taste. The investigation will continue
and remedial measures will be suggested
to the farmers not using the proper
precaution for clean milk.

loose Indictment, if not actual. of
fraud and of the laxneSS and ineffi-
