The subject OF MILK Discussed Specific
Gravity and Adulteration.
The lecture at tho dairy school Monday
morning covered the general subjects Of
specific gravity and adulteraton OF milk
and showed the relations between them.
The downstairs work was OF especial inter
est, as three new machines were run, the
Baby Alpha DeIavel separator, the butter
extractor as separator, and the new
Alpha butter worker.
The butter extractor as a separator did
well, good skimming and rapid work being
obtained from IT. The baby was aired in
the afternoon and had an admiring crowd
OF devotees. Ii is most promising infant,
has a large appetite Tor the natural food of
babies and dissorges tho same perfectly
separated III less time than does the average
youngstor.
Seriously speaking, however, its work de-
served and received commentator. There
is no doubt that these machine, have great
future before thom in the field of private
dalrying.
The butter worker, newly arrived and
set up Monday, Isl novel machine.
Its principle is ingenious, and
as it is a new thing, being
but recently invented, a description may
prove of interest. At first sight 1t looks
like an enormous washtub Sc on its side in
a frame, with score or more of small
round holes unched in its bottom 1t stands

playing IN "A set Of cogs on its circumfer
ence. The inside of the circumference is
partitoned Off into 8 or 10 pockets, and in
the centre, set horizon y to the floor and
perpendicularly to the axis OF the tub" is
a set OF ordinary grooved butter worker
rollers, which. by an ingenious mechanism,
are capable of being set near or far apart.
" hen the mach ne is started the "tub' re-
wolves slowly ON its axis Tho granular but
ter from the churn is thrown in at the bot
tom, is carried upwards by the pockets and
falls by gravity into tho revolving rollers,
and, passing through them, falls again to
the bottom, to be again raised, dropped aud
worked by the al UNSTABLE rollers, and on
following tho same round, until ready for
packing, when a ira, is thrust in to catch
the butter falling from the rollers. The
buttermilk runs off through the holes in
the bottom of the machine. Details in
the machinery permit ''tub' and rollers to
work alone independent of each other
whenever necessary. The advantages of
this worker are the large quantities of but
ter that can be handled at once, Stated to
he upward of 300 pounds; the lacl, of per
sonal handling, the machine doing much
that the hand has to do with other workers;
and, it is claimed better grain to the but
ter Its only Disadvantages that are thus
far apparent, and they are very slight, are
its cumbrous appearance and the care need
cd to keep il clean. Yet in fact it takes up
less floor room than the round power work
er, and needs but little increase OF care to
keep clean. The machine was used on Mon
days butter at the school, turned out its
product with an excellent grain and its
work in general was highly satisfactory to
instructors and students.
