HIS letter, from so eminent authority as Dr. I Fowler, should be of the greatest interest to every person within the District of Columbia. ESPECIALLY EVERY MOTHER who has the welfare of her children at heart. Milk is one of nature’s most important foods, embodying practically all of the elements so essential to the p¥Cper development and mak- ing of strong, healthy bodies. From the very day of its inception in February, 1896, up to the present moment, the aim and objective of this dairy has * "."been milk of the very highest possible standard of quality. Neither time nor expense has been spared in our effort to- ward a successful achievement of this ideal. This dairy came into existence at the very time when, providentially, it could be of the greatest aid to the citizens of our Nation’s Capital. Pasteurization and many of the other scientific methods of protection, so commonplace now, were deemed by the dairymen of those days as highly impractical and mere dreams of the idealist. Fortunately for Washington, the men who were the guiding spirits of this dairy in those early days (and who have con- tinued up to the present time) had the vision to see and the courage to go forth and put modern methods into effect. Today we are credited with having possibly the finest plant in the country, visited every year by thousands of people from all parts of the world. Our actual work, however, begins at the farm where the milk is produced, realizing in the very beginning that if we were to have milk of a higher quality than that obtain- able from any other dairy in Washington, we must control the conditions under which it was produced. Thus, in con- junction with the field work of our Public Health Depart- ment, we selected farms of the highest ratings and greatest possibilities; then, as an additional incentive, entered into a contract with them whereby we pay a premium for extra quality. s We extend a mast cordial invitation for you to visit our plant for a personal inspection. If this is inconvenient we will gladly send you a copy of our 36-page booklet entitled— “A Pictorial trip through CHESTNUT FARMS-THE WORLD’S MODEL DAIRY” Aoy o2 President and Geners! Manager.

' OFFICIAL For More Than 35 ‘Years' of Continuous Leadership o Dr. Fowler says '"That the example and pioneer work carried on by the Chestnut Farms Dairy has been of real BENEFIT to the COMMUNITY and has aided greatly in raising the general standard of the local dairy industry." He further expresses the appreciation of the "Health Department" for the GOOD WORK DONE BY THIS DAIRY in the interest of mik of a higher standard of quality. ¥ SR OC , ER g e ool g =g (3 Mr7 Gartner Johnson m: :nwlfi & Perza , Lve, My dear Mr, Johnson: I an in receipt of your etter of %o 33 fmet,, 18 wded you ask me to frankly state whether, i 4 selgmnt, e wt«mwfiomamtmwflnmmm-lfi along such prectical lines as o te 1o ¥ We offorts of Ve Boalth Depertant, to provide for the eitizens of ®is Disteges & mhmnmum-xowmmm In zeply 7 have o say Ut the 4stey referved %o as established hore meny ysers ago and at & time when hé quadtty of R11X eold in this District wae mich inferior to thet sodd ab Wy . i present tims. 80 far as I'have been able o observe, 84 Bes Pown; f’ the poliey of that deiry to conduct 1ts business along sush prestisel 804 general 1tnes, a3 10 bo of real Denstit o the entire comemiy I camnot but feel that the example and plomesr work of the estebiSsde ment 3as aided greatly fn retsing the generel stendard of vbe Josed B The Health Depertment apprectites the good SO hat bas been done by this dairy, 2 Very sincerely - Our example has undoubtedly (as stated by Dr. Fowler) had the effect of stimulating all other dairies to adopt more modern methods and consequently improve the quality of their product.
