'Sanitarian Jones Gives Dish Sterilization Data To Haywood Eating Places By O. B. JONES, Sanitarian TLi maiority of the restaurants Haywood ... and eating places county are doing a very good job i l of steriluins the di-J.es, glasses and other utensils which are used in dispensing rood to the public. There are a few exceptions. Dur ing the past two months it has been necessary to close two such places for the reason that they are potential spreaders of disease. Most of the eating places where proper sterilization of dishes is not being done do not have enough water. To sterilize properly, that is to completely kill disease pro ducing bacteria, water must be at a temperature of at least 170 de grees Fahrenheit and must be keDt at that temperature during ii ..ii The itr zing oroc- ess requires that the dishes and utensils be immersed for at least um minntps in water at 170 dc-1 grees. iJernaps u wouiu oc ndici to heat the water to 180 degrees, especially where there is not a booster heating unit attached to the sink. This would allow for a certain amount of cooling which takes place while the utensils are being treated. ! A number of restaurants have installed electric water heaters. Some of these are too small to maintain a constant supply of wa ter at the right temperature; some of them will not even raise the temperature to 170 degrees. In many instances this deficiency may be overcome by installing the prop er size electric or gas booster heat ing unit. They are usually attached to the third compartment of the washing sink. They are being manufactured at the present time in sufficient quantity to be read- A Specialized Boys Depart!

Another possible source of con lamination is the drying of dishes iitnils with dish cloths. Only mim, thw a very few restaurants employ this means of drying dishes. Health rieDartments discourage this out moded method because of its pos sibilities of spreading disease. When there is an abundance of hot water at 170 or 180 degrees for sterilizing, the drying of dishes with cloths is not necessary. The heat they absorb during the two or three minutes they are immersed will evaporate the moisture and leave them perfectly dry and shin ing clean. The dishes must be lowered into the hot water in wire baskets with long handles; then left on the draining board to dry. Of course, a prerequisite to the loroucn sieruuauon is L-aiciui washing and rinsing in a three compartment sink lirge enough to completely immerse the utensils Most of our restaurants are equipped with three compartment sinks. Perhaps the greatest imme diate need is really hot water. NARROW DOOR CALLS FOR SLIM RECEPTIONIST MILWAUKEE, Wis.
