HC Deb 15 May 1911 vol 25 c1643
Mr. STANIER

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Agriculture whether the Board will act on the finding of the agricultural instruction committee of the Somersetshire County Council in 1908, whose experiments showed that under certain conditions the milk of perfectly healthy cows, properly housed and fed, may and frequently does fall below the legal limit of 3 per cent. of butter fat?

Sir E. STRACHEY

The Somerset experiments confirmed what was known before.
