PULLAR & NIVEN HERE'S WHERE YOU SEE WHAT YOU GET Milk Campaign Statistics-Watch for Your Milkman’s- Name In this space daily appears the re- sults of the laboratory examinations of milk sold in New Britain. While the health department makes a full chemical and refractive examination of each sample, only the amount of fat and the degree of cleanliness of the milk will be recorded here in or- der that the reader shall not be con- fused by an array of figures. The average milk contains from 3.5 per cent. to 4 per cent. fat. The statute requires that it shall not be less than 3.25 per cent. fat. Milk should be clean, but a mere trace of dirt does not signify a dirty milk. er hand, there is a no excuse for‘milk containing a small or large amount of dirt. The housekeepers can do as much toward making the campaign a success as can the board of health by reporting to both their milk dealer a the health department any condit they find in the milk th buy. This daily report will continue throughout the month and later a full report will be made of the sanitary condition of the dairies in the city and on the farms.
