They repre sented 163 different brands and 140 processing plants The study, he said, also point ed out that 22 percent of these samples exceeded 45 degrees, the established temperature quality limit. “Producers, processors, and distributors must continue to place emphasis on giving the consumer the best quality pro duct possible,” the dairy specia list said. “-Consumer handling of milk after purchase is also important.” Collie Sheep Dogs To Appear For Lane.
