Among the important actions of the
city council last night were the unani-
inw suio inure mouure. iney were
unanimously opposed to the ordinance
aa drawn and presented a petition
signed by nearly every business man
west of the railroad tracks. In view
of this petition the motion made by
Councilman R. F Antle that It be laid
on tha. table at once prevailed with
but very little debate. Tbe merchants
of the east aide are the one that have
been complaining about the present
congested trarflc conditions, and it Is
probable a new ordinance will be
drawn up to afford them the desired
relief.
I Tho ordinance providing for the
, licensing and distribution ot milk and
cream in Medford by licensing cows
was passed as a health measure at
the instigation ot the Btate dairy and
food department. It forbids any per
son from peddling or selling milk or
cream without first having taken out
a city license to do so, at a cost ot $1
a year. Each application must be
written and contain a truo statement
of the dairy or premises where the
milk is produced and of bow tbe cow
or cows are kept. For violation of this
ordinance, which will be in force in
ten days, a fine of f 25 is provided.
Before passing the ordinance Deputy
Lyuch of tho state dairy and food de
partment, who is in charge of its dairy
inspections, addressed tbe council on
the evils and unsanitary conditions
such an ordinance would do away with,
by aiding tho state department to
make its inspections.
