CITY MILK
TROUBLE WITH FARMERS.
DOUBLE DELIVERY NECESSARY.
“Has the city milk department lost any customers through inferior qualmilk being supplied? asked Councillor C. H Chapman at last evening’s meeting of the City Council. “Not as tar as I know,” replied Councillor W. H. Bennett, of the milk committee. We lost one or two of the private hotels at first, it is true, , but they have since come back to ns. ’ ~ , , . ~ There had been considerable trouble of late with the fanner suppliers, continued Councillor Bennett. The evening’s milk had been kept upon the farms ataril VMiveW in town nex* day. In the present closeness of the weather the farmers had no .facilities to keep tho milk cool, and m consequence the council would have to try some remedy. They were going to institute two deliveries per day from Sunday next; the milk being brought in twice daily and treated jn the usual manner, 'afterwards being put into cool store until delivered to the consumer. At present there was no doubt that the milk was not being kept in the neoessary cool temperature until the council got it.
