Ungraded. Samples of milk were taken throughout the district,
and in the great majority the results of examination were satisfactory.

milk, but it is of interest to compare the results of examinations made
during 1937 with the standard formerly required for Grade A milk.
This milk had not to exceed 200,000 organisms per c.c., nor have any
coliform bacillus present in 0.01 c.c.
