Night Milk Delivery
Sir, —Night milk deliveries were introduced to allow milkmen to deliver while the street lights were on. With Roxburgh in, is it now necessary? “Milk bottles out by 4 p.m., please.” We oblige and wait, are still waiting after 6 p.m. About 6.30 p.m. there is a clatter and shreiking of kids. The milkman has arrived, his truck bedecked with street urchins who were a little over an hour ago playing in the gutters. These little helping hands are not always clean, although they might be convenient for the milkman. Is it hygienic for the customer to have grimy hands handling, and dusty if not raggy clothed bodies sprawling over your milk bottles? —Yours, etc., WHY BOTHER TO PASTEURISE? April 27, 1957.
