Salem A public hearing to
consider final suggestions in the
matter of establishing state
grades and standards for fluid
milk and cream sold In the
bottle and can trade has been
called by the state department
of agriculture for 10 a. m. Fri
day, Dec. 21. The hearing will
be held in room 321 of the state
capitol at Salem and is open to
all Interested parties. Dairymen,
producer-distributors and dis
tributors particularly are urged
to attend. O. K. Beals, chief of
the division of foods and dairies,
will preside.
This hearing Is held by auth
ority of the 1945 law, chapter
369, which provides that after
investigation the department
shall establish official State
grades and standards of quality
for milk, both pasteurized and
unpasteurized, under which
grades fluid milk shall be label
ed and sold. This law went
th.ough the last legislature as
House Bill 371.
In the hearing on Dec. 21, the
state grades and standards to be
presented will call for grade A
pasteurized and grade A un
pasteurized milk. This, as the
proposed standards are set up
will be a premium grade of milk.
Another grade designation will
also be established but Just what
the final name of this grade will
be will not be known definitely
until all suggestions gathered at
the hearing are sifted. There has
been some suggestion that this
be called Standard, with the two
grades, pasteurized and unpas
teurized, to be set up Just as in
the case of Grade A pasteurized
and Grade A unpasteurized.
