MILK SUPPLY

Sir—An inspired article in a cotw temporary (and the trend of the logics indicates whence the inspiration hails from) pßints in color do rose the eudi of a perfect day of 8 to 6 serving, omitting to mention the large nuniben. of firms that never took it on, and, those' that turned it down, including;; an advertiser in its self-same columns, a leading vendor at that. The.sugges-, tion (it does not amount to an affirma-, tion) that the puhlio gets fresher by the move is a subterfuge if not 4 positive false pretence, as the qnan-«,. ' tity is quite negligible as a proportion of 'the whole, and goes very largely to[ big hotels and large boardinghduses, for the simple reason that it is a mixedmilk. The body of milk that goes ta the general consumer comes from long; distances, is treated, and is served out. for consumption next day. Bight tot five serving adds another 24 hours to,' tho age of that milk for two-thirds o% the consumers. The public have ai\ absolute right to a before-breakfast deV livery of the milk that Has been the day before, and -with streets M as Wellington streets are there is nq possible excuse for refusing to so de< liver it. —I am, etc., •' HENRY BODLEY.
