through the bowl will effect the rich
ness OF the cream materially. The
slower the milk enters, the thicker
the cream. The separator should be
run to its full capacity to do the best
work.
The amount of water or skimmilk
used to flush the bowl is another
factor. 1t effects the richness of
cream by diluting.
The percent OF fat is generally regu-
lated by cream screw, arranged to
turn out or in according as you wish
thin or heavy cream, but frequently
the cream screw hole becomes partially
clogged so that less comes through.
That would cause heavier cream and
if the skimmilk tubes would become
clogged more cream would come and
it would necessarily be thinner. 1t
is therefore important to examine the
skimmilk and cream tubes carefully,
to see that they are free from any
obstruction.

flank and underside of abdomen as
we'll as the udder should be dampened
so that any particles of dust will not
fall into the pail during the milking
process. Always milk with dry hands.
1t is a very filthy habit to wet the
teats and allow the dirty fluid to pass
between the fingers and into the milk.
In spite of all we can do there will
be millions of germs fall from the COW
or mixer when he is manipulating
the udder while milking. For that
reason a wide top pail should not be
used. There are many good sanitary
milk pals on the market and no
dairyman should attempt to be with
out them.
The temperature to which the milk
is cooled has great deal to do with
the length of time it will keep. Elk
periments have proven that single
germ will develop into $50 in "a hours
il the milk is not cooled except by the
air while the same germ will develop
into only five of it's kind if the milk
is cooled to so Immediately after
milking.
Let US keep in mind always that the
dairy barn is a place where human
food is prepared, and let us take all
precaution we can toward keeping it
free from all contamination.

minimum. Dusty feed should not be
fed before milking. This applies
especially to rougha9e but may also
apply to grain. No sweeping should
be done within an hour before milk
ing. Before the COWS are let in 1t is
we'll to sprinkle the alleys so the
animal will not stir up dust while
walking. 1t is advisable to let the m
stand few minutes after they have
been turned in before the milking is
begun 50 that the dust will have time
to settle.
The construction of stable should
be such that it affords no place for
dust to collect See last ISSUE
The mixer is a very important
factor in the production of clean
milk. Under exactly the same con-
ditions one mixer will have a mini

per cent fat and giving three gallons
of milk daily?-R. P. B., Spokane.
Ans: 1t is rather unusual for a
Holstein cow to give such high test,
but it can probably be accounted for
In this case by the fact that the flow
is low. There are many different
combinations of feeds that will make a
good ration for this COW. 1t depends
on what feeds the owner has or could

Causes for Variation in Cream Tests.

1t is not an uncommon occurrence to
hear cream patron ask the operator :
"Why does my cream tests vary when
I am always separating milk from the
same cows?"
Very seldom do we get change in
the cream test as a result Of adding
another COW to herd or taking out
one. Herd milk tends to be unifor m
in quality, but even if there was a
difference of one or two per cent in
the percent of fat we would not ex-
pect very great difference in the
richness Of the cream.
The speed Of the bowl is one Of the
principle factors. All machines are
rated at certain speed marked on
the separator by the manufacturer.
Other conditions being the same, the
slower the speed the thinner the
cream. The reason for it is, that
since the separation is brought about
by centrifugal force throwing the
heavier parts to the outside and fat,
the lighter part, to the inside, the
more speed the greater the force aud
consequently the more thorough will
be the separation. Full speed should
be maintained and it should be uni
form.
The temperature of the milk has
considerable influence on the richness
of the cream, Warm milk will give
higher percent OF fat than cold milk,
other conditions being the same.
Tests have proven that difference
of 10 degrees in temperature of milk
will cause a decided variation in
cream test.

DE LAVAL BUTTER
Triumphs As Usual
At National Dairy Show

At the fifth great NATIONAL DAIRY SHOW
held at the Coliseum in Chicago October Goth -29th,
butter produced through the use of DE LAVAL Cream
Separators made the usual clean sweep of all the
higher awards, just at all previous National Dairy
Shows as we'll all the contests of the National But
termakers Association since it's organization in 1892
The highest award at the great Dairy Show this
year went to Albert Camp of Owatonna, Mimi, with
score of 81, and the second highest award to B. A.
Hass, of Mcfarland, Wise, with of 90. 66,
both DE LAVAL users.
In the great State Contests for Silver Cups,
five of the Cup winners we're DE LAVAL users and
one was an exhibit made from cream gathered from
farm separators largely DE LAVAL
Year after year, dating back to the invention of
the "ALPHA-DISC" system of DE LAVAL bowl
construction, butter made by of DE LAVAL
machines has scored highest and all highest
awards at every large and thoroughly representative
butter contest throughout the world.
The explanation is to be found in the ideal design
and construction of the DE LAVAL separating bowls
and their comparatively low necessary speed, which
enables the production of of texture in
perfect condition for superior buttermaking, an ad
vantage which is never possible in the use Of any
gravity Dreaming system and seldom in that of any
other centrifugal separator.
Hence the ndisputable fact, established by twenty
years of worlds records, that DE LAVAL Cream
Separators produce not only the MOST but the BEST
cream and butter

such unworthy girl in her section. Then he
ordered that Miss Blank be summoned. When that
lady appeared, he began scolding her, saying:

him to overcome the temptation. He recognized
