plant with a 200 gallon capacity CheeTy- Burrell Spray Pasteurizer, ill which the fresh milk is placed for the heat treatment. Following its period in the pasteurizer, the milk is automatically pumped over an aeriator, or cooling sheet. which cools the milk, both by gas and air, to a temperature of about 42 de- grees farenheit The milk then is automatically conveyed to the au- tcmatic bottling machines, which fill and cap the bottles. The milk is then placed in the cool room over night, for distribution throughout the city the following morning.
 John Randy, Operator
 John Randy, who Is III charge of the mechanical operation of the new dairy plant, pointed out that from the time the milk first enters the pasteurizer until it is opened for use at the consumers tables it is not touched by human hands, nor has it any opportunity to come into contact with anything non-sterile. Even the caps, declared MT. Randy, come in sanitary tubes and are placed in the bottling machines without being touched.

JUNEAU DIARIES OFFER TREATED
 MILK ID PUBLIC
Juneau Consumers to Have Choice of asturized, Raw
 Milk No Price Change

1 Pasteurized milk makes its debut in Juneau the first of next week. with offering, beginning Monday, of choice of either raw or heat-treated milk to Juneau consumers by the i Juneau Diaries, Inc
 The pasteurized milk is to be of 1 fered at no advance in price. Rather, l it is just one progressive step in local dairying that follows the con- solidating of Gastineau Channel milk producers and the construction of the new, completely modern, san itary plant of the Juneau Diaries. Though those unused to paSteur- ized milk products may at first mo- tice a difference in taste from the product to which they are habi- tuated, dairy officials are confident that the new product will find wide acceptance because of it's sani- tary advantages However, raw milk will continue to be offered. but un- der a more modern and sanitary method of distribution.
 Formal Opening Scon
 Although the new dairy plant is completed and is now being oper ated, no formal opening to Juneau residents is planned until around the first of July, when the plant will be thrown completely open to in spection by the public.
 Dairy officials explained that the whole purpose of the process of pas teurization is sanitation, and, be- cause of it's many health advan- tages, pasteurized, or cooked" milk has long been used almost exclusive ly in cities throughout the civil ized world
 Milk Process
 Under the process the milk is not really cooked, such as would be the result of heating it to the boiling point, but is heated to tempera- ture of from 142 to 145 degrees far enheit, where it is kept for thirty minute period, being thoroughly agitated or stirred all the while, in order that treatment will be uni form. The treatment completely de- stroys all harmful germ life in the milk, without in the least deterior- atjng the product.
 To introduce pasteurization to Juneau milk consumers, the Juneau Diaries equipped their new dairy

To complete the absolute sterility of milk handling in the new plant, a modern, five-case capacity, bottle washer has been installed The ma chine first treats the bottles under solution, then thoroughly rinses them in water at 180 degrees tenn perature far hotter than under the old system of hand-washing.
 Producing for the new dairy plant are five of the former dairies dis tributing milk in Juneau; the Ju- neau Dairy, Mendenhall Dairy, All aska Dairy, Glacier Dairy and Pet ersons Dairy, all of which are mem- bers of the Juneau Dairies. Inc.
 Although the offering Of pasJeur- ized milk is the first step of the new dairy organization following the completion of their plant, it is planned later to put locally made cottage cheese, chocolate milk and other milk by-products on the Ju- neau market. Ice cream making is to be continued, but with the use of modern machinery, that insures a sanitary product, always of uni form high quality.

Price Practices
OF Fig Men Hit

FRESNO, Cal, Sept 8. U.P)-
Price rigging practices of speculat-
ing fig buyers were under fire to-
day by central California fig grow
ers.
Nearly 300 growers in session here
decided to withhold marketable
fruit on individual grower proper
ties or in cooperative pools until
satisfactory prices are obtained.
The stabilization program was
adopted after crop estimates reveal
ed that the 1887 yield of high test
figs will be considerably lower then
previously estimated. Surveys re-
veal that there will be $4,000 or
10000 tons figs this year instead
of $4,000.
