Contributing to the high rating were Grade dairy farms in the Lehi area. That announcement was made recently by Archie S. Hurst, supervisor of dairying, Utah State Department of Agriculture. The tests, extending over three months, were conducted by Mr. Hurst, assisted by Glen E. Downs, department inspector. A score of 90 or better is necessary to place on the honor roll. The milk was rated on three , counts: dairy farms, processing plants and enforcement procedures and practices of the supervising boards of health. The average state score for dairy farms was 93; processing plants, 95; and enforcement, 95. Mr. Hurst said that Utah's milk has received honor roll ratings in the Public Health Service tests for over 20 years. Mr. Hurst noted that every Grade A dairy farm in Utah now has a refrigerated milk tank for receiving the milk as it comes from the cow. He added that approximately 85 percent of these dairy farms are now equipped with pipelines which carry the milk direct to the refrigerated tank from the cow. "Most of our Utah fluid milk does not see the , light of day until it is poured from the carton or bottle in the home, Mr. Hurst said. He reported that 978 dairy farms now provide the Grade A milk for the markets tested. The survey included 31 processing plants. Postoffice, Western Union Plan Joint Study Saratoga Senator Frank E. Moss, a member of the Senate Post Office Committee, said recently the Post Office Department and Western Union are contemplating entering into a joint study 5 which might produce a for general public use at a cost less that today's telegrams. Senator Moss said the first phase of the study would probZ ably be a trial period of several months using limited offices to estimate costs and pinpoint problems. It is assumed that all equipment S will be provided by Western Union and the company will bear all costs for the study, the Senator : "tele-gramlett- j said.
