SWILL-MILK. Caw-Feeding nt the Distillerles, There is now, and has been for yeare, among the ordinances of the city one making it unlaw- Mt for any person or pergons to keep more than fen cows or head of cattle stabled within tho rorporate llinits, Tt I8 not necessary to remark that this ordinauce hins not been enforved. As there ias of Iate been somc agitation as to tho fustica of the law, and n requeat that the samo be repealed, a reporter yesterday Inquired Into the causcs of the petition for repesl and the statu guo of the ordinance itsclf, It was nscer- tained that the petition or request aforesald was sent to the Council, and referred to the Committee on Health and Coun- ty Relations. That Committes decided two wecks agu to recommend the repeal of the ordinance, Health Comuissioner Ve Woll was yesterday questioncd as to his opinion of the advisability of following the re:ommmenda- tion. Hle sald that, though the ordinance had been virtually a dead-letter, hie would enforce it it complalnt was made by reputable citizens that certala places whera cattle were kept were nulsances. Huch a complaint had heen made ogalnst IR GARDEN CITY DISTILLERY, and he Lad commenved to prosecute that cor. poratlon for maintaining a nuisance and violat- ing the ordinance. The Garden City Distlilery had prescented a petition (mentloneid above) to have the ordinance repealed,atul the course of the petitlon was ss above noted. e saw no objec- tion to grauting the petitionas far as cumeerns distilierics, where large numnbers of cows were usually kept. Thers was no reason why the stables at such plaves should not be kept ina comparatively odorless and healthy conditon. ‘The vity's dralnage aystem siould not be used to drain the premises, and the refitse matter should be curried away to a respectful distance, It the places were put under the direct super- vislon of the Health Depurtment, they could be kept fn an unobjectionable manuer. “The peti- tion had not been referred to hin, nor would ho volunteer any advice, but it his ideas stiould be askud they would be given as aboves Of course the keeplns of enttle in large num- bers at a distillery ia doucthist the **slop "' may be fed to them, and the reporter questioned the Doctor In regard to the healthfuiness of such foud. lle replied that THE SWILL waa not a bad artlcle of dict for cattle, provided it was prugurl)‘ adininistered, and a great deal that had_been sald about swhl-milk being poi- sonous, simply beeauso It was milk obtatued fromn o swill dlot, was fallaclous, A comparative analysia of ‘country milk and saill-milk wonld reveal nothing to demonstrato an Inferlority of the latter. It might poesibly contaln & greater oroportivn of water aud be less valuable for cheese and butter msking, Deyond that thers was no dilfcrence perveptible. Of course, if the swill-fed cow' had ulecrs, the milk would con- tuln pus. But it was inghe chlldren to whon the swill-milk was fed that the hurtful pruper- ties of that article were mado visible, Thay became weak and fecble, leas vivaclous, and more subject to contaglous affections. It was not altogether the swill-food that produced thls [njurlons milk.
