MILK (SPECIAL DESIGNATIONS) ORDER.
1 Dairy is licensed to pasteurise milk. 2 Dairies are licensed to
bottle Grade A (TT) milk.
5 samples of graded milk and 11 samples of ordinary milk were
procured for bacteriological examination.
2 of the graded milks did not comply with the requirements of the
Special Designation Order, 1923. Letters were sent to the Dairymen
concerned. All the said samples were free from Tubercle Bacilli.
Practically the whole of the ordinary milk sold in this Borough, is passed
through the pasteurising process.
