Housewives are urged by the local dairyman to use only warm or cold water to rinse out milk bottles alter they have been emptied. Losses from cracked bottles are running high at both dairies. The principal causes of these cracks has been determined to be the use of hot water in rinsing bottles, too recently removed from a refrig- € rator. The cracks are generally very small and un- noticeable but when the bottles have been washed and refilled at the dairies they break when the force of the capping machine is applied. The dairies point out that the trade is short of bottles and new ones are now sometimes hard to get when needed. It is not necessary to use hot water in washing the bottles because they all must be thor oughly washed and disinfected with steam before they are refilled bv the dairies. NOTICE—Milk bottles are thoroughly washed and disinfected by your dairy. Please do not use Happy Thot Dairy - Hermiston Dairy Hermiston, Oregon
