KBVDJ DRAWS PRAISE AT ROTARY DINNER—SPEAKER UjUMEft CONTINUED SUPPORT OF WORK Speaking on the subject of \Community Security with \Safe- ty\ Fred W. Graves of Albany, an official of the Bureau of^Milk Salutation of the State Health Department, painted a bright pic- ture of the progress Tupper Lake has made in the past two years toward protecting its milk sup- ply in an address Wednesday at the Rotary Club's weekly lunch- eon in Hotel Altamont. As the result of a campaign waged by Dr. E. M. Austin, local health officer, against uninspected raw milk supplies here the mayor and village board took decisive steps to eliminate danger from this source, he pointed' out. Dr. David Barsky was engaged to in- spect dairy farms here and Mrs.. Mary Zevin was put in charge of a well-equipped laboratory. Re- cords kept of the milk supplied by 12 farmers here clearly show the wisdom of the move, Mr. Graves said. *On Nov. 23, 1966,' the average bacteria count in raw milk which they brought to the Altamont Milk Co. plant hen was 1.052,250 — nearly a million over the standard Grade A milk count of 100,000, which the stats regards as satisfactory. By way_ of oontrast, on Nov. 3, 19ST. the average bacteria count In milk supplied, by those same 12 farmers was 90,600- well -under the State standard!\ Marked Improvement was also evident at the plant over the same period. Xs compared to' a'bacterial count two years ago of 3,900 on bottles rinsed and ready to fill, the count was down to 1,800 in November, 1937.^ Can samples likewise showed great Im- provement. \Farmers and milk plant alike < Continued on jfcige S) jyr 1937 ROLL CALL OF TUPPER RED CROSS UNIT NETTED OVER $354: WILL GO FOR WORTHY WORK HERE CHAPTER WHO.
