knows, that he can't see over his own

LOSSES IN DREAMING
Settling Milk In Open Pans the Cause Of
Many q Dairy DcIiclt.

Many Dairy Deficit
Not long ago, says the Practical
Dnirymnn, we made little investiya-
ton into just what the loss was
through setting the milk In open pans.
A herd of IA cows was in milk, and CIV
ing about $50 pounds Of milk day. The
pans were set in a cool room and nj
lowed to stand from 30 TO IS hours, or
until the milk began to thicken. The
skim milk was tested with the Babcock
test, and II showed that nearly all the
cream rose In the first IL hours, no diff
ference being shown between that set
IL hours and that set 80 hours. Bnt the
amount of butter fat which was lost
was somewhat appalling, amounting
as II did to eight-tenths of one per
cent, or about one-sixth of the whole
amount of butter in the milk. This
loss Is not surprising to one who has OPP
portunity to make such tests, and II is
going on every day on hundreds and
hundreds of farms in this country. In
this case It amounted to two pounds Of
butter per day which brought rs cents
pound to private trade. Fifteen per
cent. Of the entire production, or over
SITS per year; who says that the loss
does not amount to much?
More than half this loss can be saved
by setting the milk in deep cans and
putting them in cold water, nnd nearly
all OF 1t by the use Of n hand separator.
Where one has the facilities creamery
is very good, but ice or running water
below IS degrees must be Mt hand, and
this Is not convenient on many farms.
But creamery costs less and is less
work to wash and care for than sep
arator, although, us rule. 1t does not
raise quite us much Of the cream.

from these seeds. and 1t is expected
that 1t will grow into most important

1t may be that by processes of purify

has been for u long time looking for
something more susceptible than any
product now within their reach, and
possibly it may be found in the rubber
