the cloth with boiling water just be-

Cool milk as soon as drawn. for If

sour milk grow best at blood heat, at

method of cooling is to use a cooler in
which the milk flows over a chilled
surface in drops, cooling each thor

In delivering to the creamery, have
cover on the wagon, cover the cans
with wet blanket, over which put a
