Rrowse A round- No Obligation VISIT OUR.l COMPLETE SHOWROOMS i I I g In order to get an idè4 of how the' farrns are inspected take a journey to. the farm where the milk cornes f roim. The inspector goes to the farmn, which, being average, produces 425.10-gallon cans, of mil-k.>per. year, and ýfirst.in-, )ectsý the sanitary conditions. He does : not need to inspect -the cattle f or this area is a. "credited area," that is to. say, al the cattie have been test *ed for (isease by the federal departmnent of agriculture., - Local -Standaicla The local standards are set up ec- cording to those required -by the United Stâtes Public Heal th Code. Our inspector nex L goes toý the milk Plant, takes 'samples of ail the milk, and takes these back to the laborato.ry. There they undergo the so-called "ýcommon test,"' the reductase> test, which'telîs whether the milk is pure or not. *In addition to the latter test there is also the "Babcock" test which de- termines the amiount of butter fat in the milk. Illinois state requires 3.25 per cent in milk, and 18 per cent in cream, but north shore inilk and creani averages mutch higher. The trip throughi the co-op 1erative inspection laboratories compfleted, one finds ont that very few diseases are now caused by mnilk, due primarilv to the "closed door" on poorly inspectu-d farmis and cattle. 1Ail the six.municipalities have united .to defray the expense which it is estiniated will amnount to 12 cents a year1 per cap)it.a, based on the. 1930 census. The cost 'of maintaining a laboratory- and two staff men ap- proxiniates $5,000 per year. Dr. and Mrs. James A. Buirrili', 812 Greenwood avenue, and their daugh- ter-in-law, Mrs..
