COMPANY REGULATIONS 259 



certifies that they are no longer infectious. If, nevertheless, 

 such persons should by accident come in contact with the milk, 

 it is to be held back (not shipped) and the company will pay 

 the usual price for it, unless the contamination was the result 

 of connivance on the part of the producers. 



d. The producer is required to use all possible care in 

 keeping informed as to the condition of health of his employees 

 so that every case of infectious disease may be discovered and 

 isolated as soon as possible. 



e. Once a year — soon after the "moving days" — a state- 

 ment is to be submitted from the local physician to show the 

 state of health of the persons on the farm and all cases of in- 

 fectious diseases that he treated [on the farm] during the pre- 

 ceding half year. 



2. If a case of typhoid fever, gastric fever, diphtheria, 

 scarlet fever or any other virulent infectious disease occurs 

 among the people living at the farmstead or among the people 

 employed on the farm, the producer is obligated immediately 

 to notify the manager of the company by telegraph or tele- 

 phone. The milk shall be held back and shipments may not 

 be restmied until the committee of control has given permis- 

 sion. 



For all milk that is held back under these circumstances 

 the company will pay full price. 



C. FEEDING AND CARE OF THE COWS 



1. All food must be quite fresh [frisch — not deteriorated]. 

 Mouldy or otherwise damaged food must not be in the stable, 

 or in the immediate vicinity. The veterinarian of the com- 

 pany has the right to inspect the food. 



2. In summer, so far as possible, the cows are to be fed 

 in the pasture. If it is necessary to feed them in the stable, 

 the company is to be notified and then the producer is re- 

 quired to use care that the stable and the cows are kept as 

 clean as possible. 



The company reserves the right to forbid, if it is considered 

 necessary, the stable feeding of cows that produce nursery 

 milk.
