STANDARD QUANTITY AND QUALITY OF MILK. 



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

 pound per gallon — is now taken and accepted as the standard of 

 milk, not only in our own country, but in all Europe. 



Quality. — The Executive Committee of the State Dairy- 

 men's Association, 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.
