Which is Heaviest? Milk with Thick
Cream or Thin.

dnsrer.-To use the simplest language
milk is made up in three parts--the cream.
the curd. and the whey. Cream is lighter
than water, and the curd heavier You
can prov. that by dropping piece of COM
mon white cheese int water. and then a
Bit Of butter. One swims and the other
sinks. The milk Of different cows ard of
the same COW at different times will be
found to vary in the amount Of curd and in
the quantity OF butter. When there is
more curd its. weight will be increased;
when the cream is most abundant the milk
is slightest. We call milk tina, gives thick
cream rich milk. 1t is rich for some pur-
poses and in some elements but poor in
others. As a rule it is curd that gives size
and strength in the system. And butter
that aids digestion and gives warmth
Hence when the calf is young and needs
curd to build up its frame. the milk of it's
mother. is rich in curd. This is the rea-
why the milk of cows must be deluted be-
fore We give it to babies. The calf grows
q great deal faster than the ehild and re-
qulres more crrd in proportion. tits easy
to see that heavy milk is hest for the cheese
maker. and the light milk for butter
Winter milk is richer in cream than sum
mer milk af rule. because ia winter the
animal neeqs the oil for keeping her body
warm. Hence snug warm barns increase
the flow OF milk and its cream. fer the an
imal can spare moe. Cows that natur-
ally give little milk Yield an article that is
richer in both eurd and cream. So about
the feed. If you give your COW late cnt
coarse Timothy, your milk will weigh an
ounce or two more to the pint. because
this contains more albumen. of which cure
is made. Meal will generally increase tn.
cream. Oats ought to make heavy milk
