74 REPORT OF THE No. 55 



(f) Cows which yield less than 6 Ibs. milk per day and cows which have been 

 rejected by the veterinary surgeon must be kept apart at one end of the 

 stable in such a way that the milk from such cows cannot possibly be 

 mixed with that from those to be delivered. 



15. A sufficient supply of ice must be kept. A cooling apparatus must be used, 

 and must be stationed in a light, clean place that has not been used for any other 

 purpose and which, prior to the cooling taking place, must be cleansed with clean 

 water. 



16. The milk suppliers agree to follow the instructions of the Company and 

 its veterinary surgeon as regards any points of cleanliness or handling of milk.

Delivery.

 the cans from the sun. Fodder in racks, or manure, may not be transported on the 

 same conveyance as the milk, or cleaned cans returning from the dairy. 



18. The Company supplies the milk cans. The milk cans used for " infants 

 milk " must not be used for any other purpose. Under no circumstances must 

 these cans be used for anything but" for the delivery of milk.

19. The milk suppliers must clean the cans' again in clean cold water, and any 

 dirt which may have accumulated during the transport must be removed.

FILTRATION PLAN AND INFANT FEEDING. 



In addition to The Trifolium Dairy, there are other companies engaged in 

 the business of supplying milk to the citizens of Copenhagen, which, of course, 

 are working under the city regulations set forth on a previous page. Among these 

 may be particularly mentioned the Copenhagen Milk Supply Company, an interest- 

 ing account of whose operations was set forth in The Scottisli Farmer, of August 

 21, 1909, by Mr. John Porter. As this was written at the time of my visit to The 

 Trifolium Dairy and was based on an inspection made about the same time, a few 

 references will be appropriate. Mr. Porter states that the Danish Milk Supply 

 Company also follows exactly similar lines. The writer states that " In no other 

 town or city that the writer has visited has the quality of the milk been so gener- 

 ally satisfactory."
