MILK SETTING. -"Why," asks ono of
our subscribers, s'does it take SO much
greater bulk of cream to make pouEd Of

cellar, where the temperature Is uniformly
at 80 degrees or less, than from milk set In

lie also finds that he gets less bntter
from like quantity of milk, kept IN the
cellar, than in the warmer upper room, q
result that accords fully with our own ex-

1t may, on many farms, seem a necessity
to cot tho milk In the cellar Of dwelling

weather, on farms where there is no good,
cool dairy room, above the cellar. 1t q
basement could be built partly below and
partly above ground, 80 as to secure good
ventilation, and comparatively dry at
mosphere, very good results might be
looked for.
Tho objection to cellar for milk set
ting, is the usual dampneas and want of
ventilation, The air is not easily changed
and after room has been used for some
weeks for carrying In warm milk twice a

Nearly all basement air IN summer is
damp and damp air inclines to lnorease
the relative bulk of cream, simply because
the water that is still mingled with nearly
all cream has not had the opportunity te
be dried out OF it. Cream raised in warn

difficulty with cream raised in cellars. 1t
