We Are Sailing On to a Far Land

Counterfeit Milk Rumors Stir City Dairies

A dairyman reported to Dr. J. E. Sullivan the City Milk Inspector that a person has been offering to sell a recipe to artificially produce milk using drugs and chemicals. Sullivan notes such methods are old but detectable, and no sale to St. Louis dairymen has occurred. He cautions about low quality milk due to winter shortages, water and coloring to stretch supply, and warns against colored milk from diamond dyes or harmful substances.

The text riffs on wisdom about breeding, honesty, aging, and social manners, with phrases like a good word, never growl, fair words break bone, and men at forty. The passage preserves regional idioms and moral adages without full context.
