USEFUL DAIRY BOOK.

DR.. Kenelm Winslow, of Seattle, has
just published from the press of Will
liam R. Jenkins Co., New York, work
on "The Production and Handling of
Clean Milk" 1t is the best and most
exhaustive work on the subject that
has come to this office. 1t is COM
plete, plain, practical and authorita-
tive guide to the production and dis
tribution of clean milk for farmers and
others interested in matters pertain
ing to dairying and hygiene. The writ
er has had unusual facilities for study
ing all sides of his subject, being a
practicing physician, a graduate of
medical, veterinary and agricultural
schools, and he has had practical ex-
perience with animals and with the
production and distribution of certified
milk, and he has also been an official
in charge of laboratory having super
vision over the milk supply of large
city. The relation of germs to the
production of clean milk is clearly de-
scribed. Milk inspection, including
all necessary laboratory tests, are
discussed. 1t contains illustrations of
utensils and apparatus, and of barns
and milk houses, many of which are
taken from prominent Washington
farms The book contains 207 pages,
and can be had by remitting the
price, $3.50, to The Ranch.

LEssENINe BUTTERFAT COST.

A Vermont expert in dairying
claims that the Jersey can produce a
pound of butter fat cheaper than any
other breed and the ability OF the
cow to convert food into milk was
twice as great in some animals as in
others, both in the grades and pure
breds; he urges that records be kept
and the improbable cows rejected be-
cause the poor COWS would eat up
the profits of the herd.
For economic production the more
food one can get the cow to eat the
more milk she will give; hence the
feed should be palatable, have variety
and be easily digested. The more
protein, the larger milk flow; the
richer the food the richer the milk
and the richer the manurial product.
Since the maximum production is not
always the most profitable, this is the
problem for each to study and which
no expert can settle. 1t takes about
one and a fourth pounds of protein to

Skagit county dairymen have now
fully organized and adopted consti-
tuition and bylaws. At recent meet
ing they were addressed by the presi-
dent of the Pacific Coast Condensed
Milk Co. in regard to a recent reduc-
lion in price. In part he said: when
we established the condenser here the
price we agreed to pay for your milk
was to be regulated by the amount OF
butter fat the milk contained. We
really have been paying you price in
excess of the amount we agreed to
pay We are paying today $1.35 per
hundred pounds Of per cent milk. At
Kent we pay $1.40, or five cents more
than we pay here. Why we are not
paying as much here as we are paying
at Kent, Forest Grove, or Chehalis is
question which doubtless concerns
you. Local conditions govern prices
always Kent is situated between two
large cities, and milk naturally COM
mands a higher price. We are now
paying at the rate of 37A cents per
pound for butter fat. The highest
market price is 33% cents per pound.
Eastern condensers are paying only
$1.00 per hundred for four per cent
milk A fair round price for milk is
all we can afford to pay. If we cannot
deal with farmers on fair basis we
do not care to operate the condenser
here"

In preparing butter and eggs to be
shipped to Alaska mining centers, we
notice that the butter is all packed in
casks filled with brine, similar to the
old-fashioned way of picking butter,
while the eggs are packed in regular
cases with all the space between the
individual egg and the filler filled
with salt, usually, though some use
rice-hulls. This serves as protection
against breakage in rough handling
and also against freezing, should a
cold snap be encountered. There is
some objection to the use of salt as it's
affinity for moisture is said to shrink
the egg materially. A few use oats as
a buffer for the eggs, and these are of
value for use on arrival.

suit that several have been closed up
until conditions are improved. What
com County is taking up the same
line of action under direction OF l..
Davies, State Dairy Commissioner. A

The law requires that the COWS and

the power to condemn the dairies and
prevent them from selling, not only

Mr.. w. F. Barth of the Anacortes
Creamery Company was recently in

pany as making splendid progress, not
only in converting an increasing
amount of first class Washington
cream into a superior article of Wash
ington creamery butter, but also as
handlers and Gamers of Puget Sound
fruits of high class. The development
of these lines of business is progress
ing rapidly and is capable of almost
unlimited expansion in the Anacortes
district.

PRODUCING SANITARY MILK.

The fact that public attention is
directed to the sources of milk supply
for many of our cities and that they
are being closely scrutinized by local
and general inspectors, makes the fol
lowing suggestions pertinent and time
ly:
A clean, well-drained barnyard is an
essential factor in the production of
sanitary milk, for where cows are
obliged to wade in mire and filth, it is
easy to foretell what the quality of
the milk will be. In order to secure
a good barnyard, the slope should be
away from the stable, or at least not
towards the stable, and it should be
covered with gravel or cinders. If the
manure is not taken directly from the
stables to the fields, it should be placed
where the COWS cannot have access
to it.
Ordinarily, when milking, great
number of bacteria will find their way
into the milk through the dust and
dirt and hairs which fall from the cow.
This may be largely prevented by
wiping the TANKS and udder with a
moist sponge or cloth just before milk
ing. 1t is still better to wash; how
ever, this procedure requires more
time, as it must be followed by careful
wiping to prevent dripping. Cows
should not be bedded, fed or carded,
just before milking, as any one OF
these acts creates dust which will GER
tainly find it's way into the milk. Ii
pure milk is sought, it is desirable to
reject the first streams of milk from
each teat, as these contain thousands
of bacteria. The reason for this rich
development Of germs is found in che
favorable conditions provided by tbe
milk in the milk-cistern of the udder,
and also by the possible access OF the
germs through the milkduct.
Clothes which have been worn in the
field during the day are not suitable
for milking purposes. Every mixer
should be provided with clean, white
milking suit. Such clothes can be
bought ready-made for less than a
dollar; and, If frequently washed, will
aid in securing clean milk. Mixers
should also wash and dry their hands
before milking, and, above all, should
keep them dry during milking. To wet
the hands with the milk is filthy
practice.
Immediately after milking, the milk
should be removed from the barn to a
clean, pure atmosphere, where it is
aerated and cooled by running it over
a combined aerator and cooler. If 1t
is possible to aerate the milk while
warm. should aeration be desired, bet
ter results will be obtained than where
aeration and cooling are attempted in
the same process and at the same
time.
