Milk Grading Urged to Safeguard Boston Public Health
Dr. Nelson C. Davis of Hood Milk Company urged Boston to adopt a standard method for grading milk at a Boston University of Medicine address. He warned current lax pasteurization rules allow bacteria in milk and that inspectors focus on butter fat standards instead of bacteria content. He compared milk grading to silk grading, argued the middleman adds cost, and said high grade milk is not incentivized in New England yet remains the cheapest, safest, and most economical food.
