Before the farm inspection is carried out the creameries to which the milk is delivered by the farmers are inspected at the time the milk is being delivered. The temperature of the milk and its cleanliness are noted. In the creamery the straining, cooling and handling of the milk are observed as well as the washing of the milk cans and other utensils, and the construction and condition of the creamery, the opportunity for the water supply to become contaminated, and the presence of infectious diseases among the employees. =Grades of milk.= Three grades of milk have been established. Each dealer is required to state which grade or grades he expects to handle. The specifications for the different grades are as follows. _Grade A. Guaranteed Milk._ Guaranteed milk is that produced at farms holding permits therefor from the Department of Health and produced and handled in accordance with the following minimum requirements, rules and regulations: 1. Only such cows shall be admitted to the herd as have not re-acted to a diagnostic injection of tuberculin. 2. All cows shall be annually tested with tuberculin, and all re-acting animals shall be excluded from the herd. 3. No milk from re-acting animals shall be shipped to the City of New York for any purpose whatever. 4. The milk shall not contain more than 30,000 bacteria per c. c. when delivered to the consumer, or at any time prior to such delivery. 5. The milk shall be delivered to the consumer only in sealed bottles, which have been sealed at the dairy. 6. The milk shall be delivered to the consumer within 30 hours of the time at which it was drawn. _Grade A. Certified Milk._ Certified milk is milk certified by a milk commission appointed by the Medical Society of the County of New York, or the Medical Society of the County of Kings, as being produced under the supervision and in conformity with the requirements of that commission as laid down for certified milk, and sold under a permit therefor issued by the Board of Health. No milk shall be held, kept, offered for sale, or sold and delivered as certified milk in the City of New York which is produced under requirements less than those for guaranteed milk.
