PasteorizatioD Law' Effccthre in State

Befkuaf Joly 1 On July 1 ,19* . Michigan becomes

the f irst state in the Union to have a state-wide pasteurization law. Michigan's dnprecedented step in the protection of its 6% million milk drinkers f rom the dnngers of milk born epidemics places the state far out in the f ront in the enactment of progressive health and dairy laws according to Charles Flgy, Director, Michigan Department of Agricul-ture. The effective date of the law was also well set to coincide with the great influx of touriata who re-quire increased supplies of milk in the resort areas during the sum-mer vacation motnhs.

Michigan laws apply the pro-tection of paateurltatlon not only to milk but to butter, cheese, cot-tage cheese and Ice cream. Mich-igan consumers and tourists can be assured of pasteurised milk and cream unless they go direct to the farm and buy raw milk. Sales made at the farm where produced are exempt I

Application forms for the llcenaes due July 1, 1M8 win not be mailed to raw milk dealers as in the peat, but such dealers as are approved by inspectors will be licensed ta sell r a w milk at the farm.

FIFTY-SIXTH YEAR

Rural Telephones Show Greater Gain Than Larger Places

Installation of the 50.000th rural telephone In its territory since VJ-Day was anriounced recently by the Michigan Bell Telephone Company.

Berle D. Slack, manager for the company, said the gain since 1946 has brought the total number of telephones in Michigan Bell's rural area to the 130,000 mark.

Pointing out that the 50.000 gain since VJ-Day equaled the com-pany's entire rural "telephone pop-ulation" before the war. Slack said the relative demand for service in farm areas today is ahead of that In urban centers.

"The extent of t h a t demand Is shown by the fact that we started the year 1947 with 12,000 on the waiting list in our rural territory and ended the year with 13,000— despite an Increase of 16,000 in the number of rural telephones in serv-ice during the year," Slack said

Liberal Construction Plan The heavy rural demand was

attributed by Theodore H. Dawson, head of Michigan Bell's farm-line development program, to the com-pany's liberal construction plan un-der which farm lines are being built and to improved rural service, together with the known Increase In farm Income.

Under a plan established in 1940 and fur ther liberalized two years ago, no charge is made for con-struction up to -one-half mile of f a rm line. Thus, telephone service is available to 86 per cent of the rural families in the company's terr i tory without any construction charge.

Aids Itaral Program Dawson also cited the extension

of dial service in rural areas and a reduction in over loaded farm lines. The company's twin objec-tive, he said, is to achieve 100 per cent dial operation and to reduce the number of parties on rural lines to a maximum of eight. Today, only 14 per cent on Michigan Belt rural lines have more than that number

Introduction of new construction methods the last few years that have brought about greater eco-nomics have aided the rural pro-gram. Dawson continued. He cited such developments as long-span wire and the use of burled wire in certain areas. Still in the experi-mental stage as to economy of oper-ation is the use of carrier equip-ment on telephone and power lines.

In addition to its own lines. Mich-

The leader, Mrs. Ida Rogers, Pomona Orange lec-turer of Alpine, took the group on a fifty mile drive with various ad-ventures occurlng enroute and much speculation as to where the final stop would be made. This proved to be the fine yard at the Rogers home In Alpine, where the 175 pres-ent enjoyed a lawn parly. Square dancing was th evening's diversion and 'a welner roast with all the fixings and hot coffee was served. Egypt Orange was happy to have one of their girls selected as the "Princess" and Miss Shirley Can-field has this honor and she will represent Egypt Orange at a state meeting to be held later.
