MILK BILL NOW

|NFORCE soon
Council Passes Health
Measure Monday Ev-
ening; Drastic Regu-
lations for Dairymen

Caldwells pure milk bill. long con-
sidered. finally was passed without
dissenting vote by the city council
Monday evening.
The measure, as finally passed,
makes stringen; sanitary regulations
to cover the sale of milk within the
corporate limits OF Caldwell. a city
dairy Inspector is to be appointed at
\ salary OF $50 per month. licenses
will be issued to concerns coming
within the ordinance and fees collected
which vary from $3.50 Tor the "one
COW" dairy to $40 for dairics having
10 or more cows.
Requirements in the ordinance will.
I enforced. give Caldwell high STAN
dard OF milk While the butter fat
content allowed by the ordinance. 81
per cent, is below the average. the
bacteria content is limited to 100000
per cubic centimcnter under the law.
This clause. il was said by several
dairymen at the council meeting.
would necessiiaie complete over
hauling OF dairy methods employed by
most producers here.
In accordance with a suggestion
made al the meeting by DR. F. NJ. Cole.
city health officer. clause permitting
persons to sell ice cream on the streets
from carts. was striken from the ordi-
nance. This practice will no longer
be legal within the city. DIR. Coles
argument was that the practice was
always unsanitary.
Opposition to the bill was freely
expressed al the meeting. Several
speakers sought information. d. G.
Ruby. one OF the leaders of the op-
position to the measure, asserted the
competition was the best guarantee OF
pure milk for Caldwell consumers. He
cited the fact that the per capita con-
sumption OF milk in Caldwell had
increased greatly in the past 10 years
as ample evidence that the quality
of milk supplied Caldwell citizens must
be high He objected to the creation
OF new office and protested that the
license fees were not equitably arranged
in the ordinance. Other speakers took
similar views bu, the license fee met
with so many contrary recommenda-
tions that the city council left it rs
written into the bill.
The ordinance goes into effect
today with its publication in The Trib-
une. However. no attempt will be
made to enforce it until the Office OF
dairy inspector has been filled. May
or John Smeed is ri present in Port
land, attending the railroad hearing
before the interstate commerce COM
mission. The appointment will rest
until his return. Among those men,
toned for the position is DIR. A. J
Dickman, deputy state veterinarian
DR.. Dickman however is said to be
to leave but it is said that
ne will probably be given IN oppor-
unity to decline the position.

accordingly scheduled at all OF the
above places. The first meeting to
be held this week and other meetings
to be he'd every night following until
the schedule is complete
The same program is TO be fol

follows:
Big Bend. Thursday evening. March

evening. March 29: Wilder, Saturday
evening. Narch %.
Other meetings will be scheduled
as rapidly as possible through the
Boise valley and on the Twin Falls
tract. 1t is expected to complete the
organization OF the locals in all dis
tricts by April IS.
In each community the growers in
terested will form local packing asso-
ciations and the members will sign
contract with the local in
stead OF the central exchange as had
been the case heretofore. In other
words the members OF the Idaho Pro-
ducers' Union in the future will be-
come members OF local association.
The local associations will then be
federated into district exchanges and
when the necessity requires the dis
trict exchanges will be federated into
a central exchange. In this WY each
local '1CNing ASSOCIATION VIII hc IS-
sponsible for receiving and packing

and will not be responsible financially
or otherwise for similar operations
conducted in other districts. In other
words each community under the new
plan will stand on its own feet. and
the only expense that will have to be
paid toward maintaining a district ex-
,hange will be fixed charge per pack
age OF products shipped.
It is thought that such p'an will
eliminate practically all OF the objec-
ions to the plan OF organization as
in the past.
