STANDARD QUANTITY AND QUALITY OF MILK. 



Quantity.— Borden's standard— of eight and five-eighths pounds per 

 gallon— is now taken and accepted as the standard for milk, not only in our 

 own country, but in all Europe. 



Quality.— The executive committee of the State Dairymen's Associa- 

 tion, after many experiments carefully made, have decided that hereafter 

 the following shall be considered by them as the standard quality of milk in 

 Illinois : Water, 87.5 ; solid, 12.5— in a scale of 100 parts.
