10 The CITIZENS OF BALTIMORE: In accordance
with the request Of several families who are now
using Condensed Milk, and others who desire to

PANI, near York. Pa, and now give the results of
my observations there, confined by subsequent ex
Milk received at the Factory door was carefully ex
amned. all not absolutely fresh was rejected. and the
sweet pure Milk put in clean brass kettles stand
time sufficient to accomplish the coagulation of the
casein. 1t was then passed through metal filter
into large copper Kettle when it was again m0der
ately heated by steam, and then transferred by ey
h9ustlon to the vacuum pan for final concentration
n tenperatare not eyeeene p1 d Far tbarnle
ter From the vacuum pan il was discharged into cans
which were rapidly cooled by immersing them in
vat Of ice water, and the Milk was then ready for
distribution. BY this simple process, in few
hours. while stood watching each successive step
SOME 500 gallons of sweet pure country Milk fresh
from tho cows without dilution or adulteraton, was
reduced 70 about rs gallons ofthe condensed article
The Condensed Milk thus produced containing of
necessity everything originally present except the
very small per cenage Of casein left adherng to the
nsdo Of the brass kettles after the preliminary heat
ing ana the seventy-fye per cent of water expelled
was confirmed By subsequent chemical examination.
One of the articles removed the casen. is the one
constituent Of Ai most prone change most readily
decomposed, and when undergoing change it always
acts like ferment and brings about that chemical
change in the sugar by WHICH Tactic acid is produced
mart nT ihn Enrl-
densed Milk must then diminish its tendency to be-
come sour. and at the time Eaust prevent that
objectionable c0nshpatng action that SO often fol-
lows the habitual use Of coagulated casein ar
cie Of food whether taken in the form of cheese or
III ordinary bgled Milk. The Condensed Milk is not
only chemically pure but IN another and an equally
important sense ii Is absolutely pure III being abso
lutely clean. = one can visit the factory without
being struck with the extreme taken and the
efficiency of the means employed to insure the most
perfect cleanliness. Every utensll, from the smallest
cup to the vacuum pan, shone like a mirror, while
remove from the premises every thing that might act
AS the slightest cause OF contamination. From tho
moment the Milk is received ut the door of the fac
tory until it is passed out again to the consumer it
is never touched by the human hand. 1t is not
anly clean, but it is also undiluted and in
this respect differs widely from City Milk supply.
During numerous examinations of Milkfrom various
sources have never met with any containing less
than one-fourth and sometimes found one-third
water This affects the question of cost. Twelve
cents for quart Of Milk containing half pint of
water makes the Milk cost IS cents quart. But one
quart Of Condensed Milk at Is cents with four quarts
Of cold water will ,gyo five quarts of Milk better
than any ordinary Milk that can find and will cost
less than 10 cents Quart with three quarts of water
to one quart OF Condensed Milk the cost becomes u
cents quart, and the product tastes like cream
Even the cost greater, it would be worth some
thing to DO free from all risk of swallowing stale Milk
kept until on the very verge Of decomposition, or
sgiil Milk from stall fed and diseased cows 1t would
be worth s0mathing to get rid of the annoyance of
discovering deposit Of mud in the bottom of the
Milk vessel from which, perchancc we have just been
helped. And lastly, it is worth something to have
responsible parties standing between and the farm
yard pumpto guarantee that we shall never be called
on TO buy pump water at tho rate Of coed Milk I
need hardly add that all that have said in relation
TO the Condensed Milk applies with equal force to
the preserved Milk, as that is manufactured in pre-
c;sely tho way, and differs only in containing o
large percentage of graduated white sugar.
Respectfully, &c,

We need only add, in full corroboTation of the
above, that all physicians who have given the Con-
d0nsed liilk fair trial and examination fully con-
cur in the opinion of Prof. Akin,
Persons DESTROYS of trying this Milk can leave their
orders at the depot send their address through the
Post office boxes established at the street corners
