own peculiar odor, together with per
laps several cans Of fruit. with their
contents oozing out. Is it any wonder
the butter made from the milk has all
kinds of fiavors except the one il
should have?
So many people in the country keep
their milk in the cellar along with
their supply of fruits and vegetables.
1t is a very bad practice. for ii is i'm
possible TO keep milk from becoming
tainted by the foul atmosphere where
vegetables are kept. Ill cellars are
more or less damp, causing a musty

among the easiest things in the world
to be tainted. The only way to pre-

the air where they are kept pure by
good ventilation and cleanliness.
Keeping milk in the kitchen is not q
good thing to do. al the milk absorbs
the odor arising from cooking. and
there is always more or less smell
about a kitchen no matter how cleanly
1t may be. The very walls become
filed with the steam arising from the
cooking OF cabbage. onions etc. In
