Synopsis

Examining the milk supply in the District of Columbia and how it reaches families and institutions. This book summarizes a comprehensive investigation by a DC chamber of commerce committee into production, handling, regulation, and safety measures for milk and related products. It covers historical and modern approaches to protecting public health and ensuring wholesome milk for consumers.

The content focuses on how milk is produced, stored, transported, and sold, and how federal and local regulations shape every step from farm to table. It includes assessments of pasteurization, tuberculin testing, bacterial standards, and the roles of public agencies, dairymies, and nurses in safeguarding the milk supply.


  • How pasteurization, temperature control, and bacterial counts affect milk safety and nutrient value.

  • The use of tuberculin testing and other disease-prevention measures for dairy cattle.

  • Guidance on infant feeding, prepared milks, and the care of milk at home and in institutions.

  • Practical considerations for regulating the sale and distribution of milk in the District of Columbia.



Ideal for readers interested in public health policy, urban food regulation, dairy history, and local governance.
