IMPORTANCE OF COOLING MILK

IMPORTANCE OF COOLING MILK.
Probably the most important pre-
caution that can be taken with milk
is to cool 1t as quickly as possible af-
ter 1t is drawn, says Farming. At
temperature of sixty degrees F. and
lower the germs grow but slowly.
Ordinary well or spring water has
temperature of between fifty and six
ty degrees +. II the farmer has an
open water supply he also has a re-
frigerator that is cooler than the or
binary ice box. II the cans are low
cred into the spring or well as soon
as possible after milking, the milk
will be cooled before the germs can
have time to begin their growth. The
proof of the effectiveness of the plan
is seen on country milk routes where
on the morning rounds, evenings
milk that has been cooled in this
manner and warm mornings milk are
carried in separate cans. Customers
demand the warm mornings milk as
a guarantee of purity, and yet the
cold evenings milk invariably keeps
the better.
II the germs in milk that Is pro-
duced under the. ordinary conditions
are killed within two or three hours
after milking, the milk will keep
we'll and may be used for nearly all
purposes. In order to kill the MI
crobes it is not necessary to boil the
milk. A temperature of 1S0 degrees
F. sterilizes it from all but a few rare
germs, and at the same time leaves
it as palatable as fresh milk. In
some croameries ordinary farmers
milk is run through a thin pipe, one
end of which is hot and the other
end cold. Within half minute the
milk is heated and then cooled. Such
milk is safe and wholesome. Doubt
less this method of treatment will be
increasingly used. The principle is
| the same that is applied in canning
| fruit. If the milk were sealed against
new germs it would keep as well as
condensed milk.

WINTER CARE OF POULTRY.

In the morning feed boiled potn-
toes mixed with cornmeal. buckwheat
bran and small portion OF wheat
bran. Then at noon give all the tn-
Bile scraps, screenings, which consist
largely of oats and buckwhcnt. AT
night all the corn they Will cat up
clean. Water and coal from slftcd
wood ashes and plenty OF sunflowcr
and sorghum seed. raw potatoes ana
onions chopped fine arc good for
them. The roostIng room should
have one thickness OF boards, bat
tened and banked on the sides, and
the feeding room should bc large
enough 80 tho greedy ones Will not
crowd out the others and get all the
feed. In this way the poultry may
be kept healthy and produce eggs all

FOREST LEAVES.
