JEFFERSON DAIRY. INCREASES STOCK
Capital Boosted $5O,0O0 In Order To Handle New
 Business

A declaration increasing the capital stock of the Jefferson Dairy company from $50,0OO to $1O0,OOO was filed in probate court Thursday. Rapidly in creasing business, due to growing de- mands for pasteurized milk, was given as the reason by S. L. Brewster, presi- dent of the company.
 Mir. Brewster explained that many dairymen bring their milk to the com pany's plant for pasteuriZation. He said this number had grown steadily since the health department launched it's "pure milk drive" According to MT. Brewster, the peo- pie of Birmingham now are evincing a keener interest in their milk supply than eyer before.
 Without in any way attempting to reflect on raw milk dairymen," he said, T can state that the recent campaign of the health authorities has brought about a widespread demand by the public that milk be insured by pasteu- rization."
 Mir. Brewster asserted that the milk consumers of Birmingham have greater confidence in the milk supply than con- sqmers of most cities. In consequence, he said, business is good and is regis tering an increase almost daily.
 We are proud of our modern and complete pasteurization plant" he asid, "and invite the people to inspect it at any time"
 Officials of the company probably will meet in the next few days to lay tentative plans for extensions to take care of the rapidly expanding volume of business, it was stated.
