IS BY STATE'S Score Card Will Be Kept and Each Merchant Given Rat ing on Cleanliness, The dirty back room must go. With this as his slogan and a firm Intention to clean up those portions of the. butcher shop, the grocery store, the bakery, the restaurant and the dairy, to which the public never has access and never sees. State Dairy and Food Com missioner J. D. Mlckle will soon start a state-wide crusade against back room uncleanllness. "The dirty back room is a source of great danger to the public," said the commissioner today, "and I am determ ined to stamp it out and reveal condi tions as X find them. I shall adopt a score card with a certain fixed atand ard and score Impartially every place I enter. When I have finished in a town I shall publish the scores of the places examined that the public may know Just what precautions their favorite butcher or grocer la taking to protect their health. I am convinced that pub licity will be a oure for the back room evil. The front room is too often the show place of an establishment. It Is clean and well kept because it is used by the public. No attention is paid to the rear rooms where food is prepared or stored because they are out of the public's sight The score card will show the difference between the good and the bad establishment, the clean and the dirty. "I am convinced that I shall have the cooperation of the people ki this cam paign. I have Just returned from an ex tension trip with the College welfare school of the Oregon Agricultural col lege. We made every town from Ash land to Portland and never have I seen the publio -so wide awake as regards pure food "questions. This Is especially true of the women's organizations. They evince a wonderful spirit of cooperation and a desire to better sanitary condi tions. In the future I shall try to work in cooperation with, them in my cam paigns.

He believes it to be the public's only pro tection aaglnst the unscrupulous coun try butcher's slaughtering of diseased livestock. He also deprecates the idea that it will Increase the price of meat.
