STATUS OF PASTEURIZATION OF MILK 
For those who are particularly in- 
terested in the quantity of milk pas- 
teurized in various cities. Table 3 has 
been prepared. In it is a list of 315 
cities that reported Pasteurized milk 
and the approximate quantity of milk 
Pasteurized. The cities are listed in 
order of their population given in the 
1920 census and include all cities re- 
porting Pasteurization up to the time 
the table was prepared. It is particu- 
larly interesting to note the extent to 
which milk is Pasteurized even in the 
small cities. 
METHODS OF PASTEURIZATION 
At present three processes of Pas- 
teurization are practiced in this coun- 
try. The first is known as the flash, 
or continuous process ; the second, the 
holder, or holding process ; and the 
third is known as Pasteurization in 
the bottle.
