Such a plant as proposed for New lLondon wouid not only cost about $90,000 as a starter, bu: there would also be the big added expense of op- eration and maintenance, and probably With much lesser returns than now comes to the average milk producer. It is argued that delivery tu a central depot, at a largely reduced price, would \'ve more time for farm work, that would taore than recompense for the difference now received for the milk delivered to_ customers price that would be pald at the pas teuriation plant ““That sounds real woil." deliverer of milk to custome: London, “but it It were true hot benecessary for t to give us to derstand that we mu: come across of our own account, or the government would come in and force us »f. our present business method. We are willing to fall to the scheme as 1id a large in New would the Missourians. Al farmers are not as green as their cabbage leaves.” Due to the excellent system introduc- ted by Dr. of the state health department, when health offcer of the city of New Lon- don, the dangers of discase from the use of impure milk is reduced to the minimezm, and so low {bat it is not péreeptible. Dr. Black not only in- spected and examined the milk sold ih New London, but made thorough inspection of the cows that gave the oilk_and the sanitary conditions of the barns in which they were kept the feed they received and everything that had to do with the production of pure full standard milk. The doctor specialied in that work, and insisted on strict compliance with the rules he established for the health department. He systematized the milk inspection and as a result the pure article only was sold in New London This in- spection gave to the peopls pure milk that had nmot lost its color and taste, ¥ not its nutritous qualities by its cooking proces: , _If Dr. Black's system prevails and ' it probably does under the direction of his successor, Dr. Chipman, there is absolutely no need for milk pas- teurization in New London. So far as known, the federal healh officials of this section have received no com- plaint of the milk delivered in the city of New London, nor have they discov- ered any tince of insanitation in the product of the milk. For public con- venierce, and, perhaps, public health, there is necessity for basteurization Dlantz, with receiving depois for mitk, and rewcral delivery from that depot in 1.7 citiss, where tho milk comes from “.srivus sources ani iong dis- tances, but such conditions do not prevaii in Now London, or the smaller citles.
