aICsTnareIy so tnat the different teats
are pressed one after another. The milk
ing is done by pressure of the teats and
agitation of the udder in something like
the same manner as in case of hand
milking. The milk comes out of the
teats in small jets at the rate of about
a quart a minute. The time required
for milking clean with the lactator is,
however, point which has been criti-
cised, and where Improvement will
most likely be made before the machine
is placed on the market. The milk
streaming out of the different teats is
conveyed by means of rubber "teat pro-
tectors, fully iDclosing the teats, into a
common, small aluminium bowl, which
has movable lid, where the amount Of
milk coming down can be observed, and
also rubber ball closing the opening
below. When the milk runs down into
the bowl, the rubber ball will, of
course, rise to the surface of the milk,
and thus allow the milk to run out from
this. The bowl or cup is connected by
means Of stout piece of rubber tubing
with the milk cans hanging in front of
and above the COWS. The transfer of the
milk to the cans is affected by means of
suction, which acts as long as there is
any milk in the bowl. When this is
empty, the ball will close the hole be-
low, and no further suction will there
fore take place. If the machine is not
disconnected at this time, its action on
the udder will then only be kind of
massage, which can have no injurious
effect on the udder or on the COW. The
suction stops when the last drops of
milk are taken out of the bowl, and
there can therefore be no such thing as
drawing blood from the teats by milk
ing too long That the suction has moth
ing to do with the process of milking
itself, but only with the elevation of
the milk from the bowl or small reser-
voir to the milk can, is shown by the
fact that the lid of the bowl does not
seal it Theoretically, and that the sue
tion is continued uninterrupted if the
lid is taken off,
The lactatOr is attached to the udder
by means of light harness that easily
and in a moment may be adjusted to
each COW.
The power required to run the lacta.
tor was given as one horsepower for ev-
cry five machines used, and the running
expenses may be estimated on the basis
of this figure The influence of the ma
chine milking on the COWS, according
to the experience gained so far, seems
very favorable. The cows take we'll to
the new order of things from the first
time the lactator is used and seem un-
concerned while the milking is going
ON. The COWS that were being milked
as l entered the barn at Lila Ursvik
that afternoon certainly seemed thor
oughly satisfied with their lot, chewing
their oud and apparently caring in no
way for what was going on at their I'D
ders. The clockwork action of the lac
tator must priori be more stimulating
to the milk secretion than the change
able work of man or a woman who is
more or less in hurry.
