the Caldwell Produce Company
has contracted with the Guern-
sey county board of health to
enforce the grade "a" milk
regulations among the cooperat-
ing dairymen.
August T. Simmons, of Cam
bridge, who is employed by the
Guernsey county board of health
as chief sanitarian, is serving in
that capacity in Noble county
with the approval of the Noble
county board of health.
Simmons noted that great
strides have been accomplished
during the past year to advance
the dairy business in Noble
county, especially in bringing to
the forefront the development
of fine registered dairy herds
and also in providing an
additional substantial financial
income for the farmer.
In meeting the dairy require
ments for grade "a" milk, the
Caldwell Produce Company
places itself in a position tc
broaden its milk distribution
not only in Caldwell and Noble
county, but to neighboring cities
and communities where grade
"A" regulations are enforced.
Prior to the company's adop-
ton of the new policy, it wa:
limited for milk distribution only
to markets where grade "a
regulations did not apply, such
as Noble county.
In meeting the health require
mentS of the United States de
partment of health, the company
protects the public and assures
the community it serves with
safe and satisfactory milk supply
Brumbach has named Eugen'
Heddleson, an employee of th'
company, as a field representa-
tive for the company and tn
dairymen serving it.
Simmons and Heddleson hav'
within their jurisdiction tn
responsibility to see that con
troll measures are in order ant
compiled with. Their work in
wolves the task of seeing tina
every milk cow contributing t.
the milk supply has passed thu
tuberculin test and tested TO
brucellosis at required intervals
1t is their responsibility t.
inspect the dairy barns and th'
premises at various intervals. II
addition to the inspection o
premises, samples of milk art
collected. These samples arr
tested for fat, sediment, pas
teurization efficiency, coliforn
and bacterial counts.
Heddleson stated that if con
ditions are found which do no
conform to the regulations, the
dairymen is refused the privi
lege of selling grade "A" mill
and the agreement with the
company to purchase the mill
cancelled.
Only a partial list of mill
/ sellers who deliver daily t.
the Caldwell Produce Company
was made available. The list in
cludes: William Farmhouse, Mar
! shall Devolld and Albert Hupp
I of near Belle Valley; E. A. Dan

King, of Three Forks; Russell
Keith, Dave Beckett, Grover

Herbert Clark, Waldo Devolld
and Arthur Davis, of near Cald
well, and Dallas Bond of Buffalo
township.
The adoption of the new policy
of the Caldwell Produce Com
pany will undoubtedly reflec
on the health standards of thu
county. The change will have
tremendous impact on thu
dairy standards, and every in
dication points to showing vas
Improvements.
