whereby school-children were enabled to obtain a one-third pint bottle
of Pasteurised Milk. This resulted in a number of dairymen obtaining
the necessary Licences to enable them to supply Pasteurised Milk to the
schools.
There are 46 L.C.C. schools with 111 departments supplied with
this milk by 12 dairy firms.
12 samples of this milk were procured and submitted for chemical
analysis, and 12 samples for bacteriological examination. These were
all satisfactory.
Total number of these samples submitted—33.
