HANDLING OF BREAD.
(To the EdttOT.) Sir,—Reading the remarks of David W. Miller on State bakeries reminds mc of a eight I saw on a railway station recently. A load of bread, obviously intended for dispatch by train, was being pushed along the platform on a truck. This bread, which, by the way, was steaming hot, was placed in a number of boxes, with a sheet or two of old newßpaper apologetically spread on top. Some appeared to be benzine casea, but one was a rather large box, such as may have been used for packing drapery many years ago. In the journey along the platform several of the loaves tumbled off, and were picked up from the dust, etc, etc, and promptly returned to the box. Now, the question arises, should not the authorities, in the intereste of public health, extend their inspection of bakehouses to the handling of bread after it leaves the shop.—l am, etc, SO-ANB-SO.
