FILTH IN MILK.

THE amount of filth in milk as delivered by farmers to condensed milk factories is disgusting, but the process of manufacturing, and the admirable and scrupulous cleanliness in every department of these factories, makes it much less dangerous than milk containing similar filth and not subject to cleansing and heating. I have seen men while milking, deliberately dip their fingers in the milk, and then continue the milking, practically washing both their hands and the cow's teats in the milk which someone was expected to drink.—Annals of Hygiene.
