Perhaps agents of ths bureau
ot foods will find that Tyrone
restaurant propritors ars not tbe
only ones selling milk tbat does
not measure up to ths standards
as required by law. Five proprietors and five employes of Tyrone
sstsblisbment were arrested tbe
other day for violations by special
agents. In each of the establishments visited the milk sold—trom
which samples were take by tha
agents-did not measure up to tha
lawful standard.
The law requires tbat milk
sold must contain 8 25 per cent
better tat and 12 per cent milk
solids.
While restaurant proprietors
in Tyrone fell under the bonds
ot the law, it is believed that a
great many more proprietors of
restaurants and lunch stands are
also violating ths seme law. Ths
special agents, it tbsy continue
their investigations in this psrt
of the state, may find maoy other
violations.
