Will Banish the Old Milk Pitcher As a result of an investigation made in restaurants an 4 hotels in a dozen cities of the State, there will shortly be issued from the State Bu reau of Foods a requirement that all milk be furnished in bottles instead of being poured from a pitcher into a glass or a cup. In numerous in stances the State agents found that the milk supplied did not contain the required butter fats and that there was also contamination fol lowing handling. In some instances the milk was found to have been watered while in others it was manifest that in pouring from the original container the butter fats had collected in a mass at the top and left the rest of the quantity short of the legal re quirement of 3*4 per cent The so called "top milk" was rich enough, but the rest some times got the own ers of the hotels or restaurants into trouble. Director James Foust, of the Foods Bureau, who plans this move to banish the old time pitcher from the boarding house table, says that he will request persons in charge of public eating places, hotels, cafes and the like to adopt the method of serving in bottles and that he will ask the next Legislature to require it.

" 'The "little fellows" have sized up the situation and are going to vote the straight Republican ticket for their own protection.' "A stampede to the Moore band wagon has set in."
