Dairymen Demand
Enforcement OF
Milk Ordinance
Committee Asks Commissioners
To Protect Consumers And
Local Shippers

A committee of dairymen appeared
before the Board of County Commits
sioners of Montgomery County, sit
ting as Board of Health, and DR.. V. L..
Ellicott, Montgomery County Health
Officer, on last Tuesday to urge ade-
cuate enforcement of the Milk Ordi-
nance, whereby the interests of both
the consuming public and local dairy
men might be served. The committee
composed of: Messrs. w. Lawson
King, Basil Mobley, Douglas B. Dia-
mond, Jas. D. King, o. w. Anderson
and Wilson C. Poole, cited the injus-
tice of the public paying for milk
inspection system which fails to pro-
tect either the consuming public or
local dairymen, but instead, permits
grades of highest rating to be placed
or milk bottle tops, which does not
come up to the high standard indi-
Gated and thereby, tends to break
down the general level of dairy prices
and deceives the consumer.
Various instances were called to the
attention of the Health Board to show
that at times milk distributed from a
plant at Hyattsville ran almost 2 mil
lion bacteria count when the maxi
mum allowed under the regulations is
10000. 1t was pointed out that milk
is now being received from points be-
yond the legal limit set by the Mont
gomery County Board of Health,
which is not inspected by the local
Board, as also the two plants in Hy-
attsville are being inspected by the
Prince Georges County Board of
Health, and each inspection being ac-
cepted by local authorities.
The Commissioners deferred action
to a future date, but it is expected
that they will insist on the local De-
partment of Health making all in
spections and enforcing all regula-
tions pertaining to milk distribution

Farm Program AS
Outlined Briefly
By County Agent
Six Points Enumerated By Sec-
retary Wallace Give Basic
Provisions

The easiest way for farmers of
Montgomery County to understand
the basic provisiones of the 1888 farm
program, according to o. w. Ander-
son, County Agent, is to be consider
the six points enumerated by Secre-
tary Wallace.
One-Continuance of the AAA Soil
Conservation Program and establish
ment of its objectives as part of
permanent farm policy represents a
national investment in soil fertility
and insurance for the Nation of fu-
ture abundance of food and fiber.
Two-National acreage allotments
are established at levels designed to
give production ample for domestic
consumption, exports, and reserve
supplies, and payments are made to
encourage farmers to produce up to
these national allotments.
Three-Loan provisions in the law
encourage systematic storage of sur
pluses of big crop years for use in
years of shortage.
Four--Marketing quotas backed by
penalties on sales in excess of the
quotas can be used, subject to .ap-
rroval of a two-thirds vote of the
producers voting, to secure general
participation of farmers in program
designed to hold surplus supplies off
the market until they are needed.
Five-Release of corn supplies from
storage under marketing quotas is
provided to meet any shortage that
develops either on the farm in the
county, or in case of national need.
Six-Crop insurance for wheat,
starting with the 1889 crop, will give
the wheat producers and the bread
supplies of the Nation better protec-
ton against drought. Gradual accum-
ulations of wheat paid in by the farm
ers as insurance premiums will con-
tribute a major part of the Ever
Normal Granary supplies for wheat.
Although the soil conservation part
of the program is a most direct and
immediate interest to farmers of this
county, Mr.. Anderson points out that
both farmers and consumers have a
less direct interest in the development
of the other phases of the national
program.
