gers only, or with one hand only
use both hands at the time. The
mixer should sit on a stool or box,
just the right height; he should take
hold with the left hand on the farther
hind teat, having his elbow in easy
touch with the cows leg, and use the
right hand with the nearest fore teat, and
reverse the order when each teat has
nearly yielded up its contents; in that
position the COW cannot upset the milk
or put her foot into the pail, should
she become FESTIVE from flies or other
irritation, neither can she kick the
mixer. Always speak gently, eren
under serere proroeatio.. This il hard
but IL must BE- done, if you intend to
make dairying profitable. Strain the
milk rs soon as possible after your
pail is filed, the cream commences to
rise just As soon as the milk cools off,

and the water to settle a, the bottom.
Use, not only stainer-pail, but also
an independent str,iner, with a
strainer cloth inside of it. If the COW
has been rightly handled. neither of
these will show dirt, but at the time.
when the animal sheds her coat, there
may be hair, or a puff of wind or
switch of her tail may introduce hay
seed, or chat, hence the necessity for
these utensils. In fact, there is i'm
perative necessity for the utmost care
and cleanliness IN all the operations,
and at every step. Perfect results
can only follow perfect methods.
Without any attempt AT designating
the only infalIible method of setting
your milk in deep or shallow pans or
coolers, | venture to assert that the
highest priced and best butter is made
by setting the milk in shallow pans. |
say six or eight quart pans. filled
three-fourths Cd full. The Oseptic is |
respectfully referred to the ''lGrTor
and Farmer one OF the best dairy |
papers published in the United States.
That butter brings a dollar per pound
all the year round.
OF course, in u butter factory where
milk Is brought in by the farmers at
Il certain set time, and where centri-
fugal machinery is operated, there is
no time to set the milk, that process
iioes not require it.
If tin ar glass pans are in use, a lit
tie pure soap will have To he used in
the cleansing. because of the fatty
substance in the milk, the subsequent
rinsiDg in hot water will remove all
DIOR of the soap. Besides. whenever
practicable, the pans should he summed

milk cans are best deoderized by hang
