THE CITY’S MILK
INCENTIVE TO WATERING Interesting references to the condition of the city’s milk last year were made in the annual report of the Internal Affairs Department. "Tn 1924,” states the report, “the milk supply of the City of Wellington was reported almost free from wilful adulteration. Of 1740 samples taken, eight onlv were deficient in fat, and eight were watered. In 1925 a milk shortage, consequent on cold, wet weather provided strong incentive to watering, and of the samples taken, 10 were low in fat and 23 had been watered, in one case 80 per cent, of water being found.”
