A Subject in Which Every One Is Interested. There is no subject in which the community ts more deeply interested than in tnat of having always at command an abundant supply of milk, free from impurity nd obtainable at a reason- able price. The article constitutes so large and important an item in the consumption of ail cla young and old, vigoroua and infirm, rich and poor—that laws nave been enacted, and are Dow in force, to protect the public from imposi- tion by the sale of adulterated milx. It appears that during the past few weeks numerous communications have been received by the Board of Health complaining of the inferiority of the article furnished by grocerymen and other dealers, and representations have also been made by farmers that by the time the pure milk fur- nished by them reacties the family table it is very largely diluted with water. The great use and value of milk, which may be considered a necessity for the health and comfort of human beings irom the earliest stages of life to the grave, are thus greatly impaired. By the introduction of water 1t ceases to be wholesome. and palatable, and it has been demonstrated that adulteration in the manner stated has caused the outbreak of a virulent form of typhoid fever among people who habitually used it. ‘The Board of Health nave direeted several sanitary oMcers to visit the various places in tne city where mil< is retailed, with the view of seating its strength and quality. They have been severai days engaged tn tne work, and So far the results show that goou grounds for pu»- Ne dissatisfaction exist. The lactometers which are used Indicate a very general use of water. The | Sanitary code of New York provides that no per-* son shall have at any place where milk is kept for sale “nor at any place offer or have jor sale, nor shail any one bring or send to said city any un- wholesome, watered or adulzerated milk, or milk known will milk, or milk from cows or other animals that for the most part live in stabl or that are fed on swill, garbage or other like substances.” It is further provided that parties properly authorized by the Health Department shall be at liberty to fully in- spect the liquid, and all reasonable and proper questions relative to the condition thereof must be answered. The Commissioners, it seems, are re- solved to protect the public from the sale of dele- terious milk by prosecuting parties who know- ingly vend it, as @ warning to others who engage in the netarious business.

THE TRADE IN NEW YORK, ahe milk trade of New York 19 of vast propor- tions, An immense amount of capital is invested in it, and empioyment is afforded to thousands of | persons engaged on the farms and {n the traffic. | Many bundéreds of vehicles are used in suppiytog | the commodity to families at their residences, aud the amvont paid for transportation on railroads forms @ very considerable item in their earnings. Milk, it may be said, gees to make up a consider. able portion of the food consumed by mankind in allciimes. The Laplander delights in the milk of the reindeer; the Bedouin of the desert in that of the camel; the mountaineers of the Alps depend largely on the goat for sustenance, and the ewe and in other countries contribute liberally to health and comfort. But the milk o! the cow is what | gains the most favor in Europe and tne United States, and it appears most extensively on ail | occasions when good’ and nourishing food Is re- quired. New York is supplied by the various rall- road lines entering the city and having termini at the New Jersey side or on the island itself. The milk arrives at midnight, and is immeaiately removed hy the wholesale dealers and by a class of operators who, it is charged, are CHIEFLY RESPONSIBLE FOR ADULTERATION, aod who are known as jobbers or speculators. The milk comes from tne country in large tin can: each containing forty quarts. Tne following state- ment, showing the dally arrivals by each line, will give some idea of the extent of the business in this city :— ll edly tnjarious to health, particnlarly in the cases oO} young chidrea and invaids, but aduiterauom by Water Is aso dangerous, and, as stated bere, has caused fevers to break out.
