A simple method OF weighing the
milk and taking the samples is as
follows: Weigh Ton a spring valance)
the milk produced by each COW in the
dairy herd for six consecutive milk
ings each month (preferably on the
same date each MONTH. From each
cows milk q sample Of milk is taken
and placed in her sample jar.
The milk should be thoroughly
mixed before taking the samples.
The samples taken at the six milk
ings OF each COW viii give a COM
posite sample OF her milk, and when

produced BY each COW during the
three days multiplied by ten gives

Simple Instructions for testing milk
With the Babcocl test are as follows.
!. Thoroughly mix the sample.

the pipette into the milk and suck
until the milk has risen above the

The Real Story
of Printype

The idea from which "Printype
sprung resulted from the success Of
our type experts in equipping Il
typewriter used in our offices to
write The Oliver Typewriter" in
our famous trademark type, just as
1he name appears on the outside OF
the machine and in all Oliver
publicity.
The beautiful appearance and the
marvellous clearness of the repro
duction OF our ebony" trademark
type disclosed the possibilities of
cQnipping The Oliver Typewriter to
write the entire English language
in shaded letters!
We worked for years on the plan
and fina ~ succeeded in producing,
for exclusive use on The oliver
Typewriter, the wonderful shaded
letters and numerals known to the
world as 'Printype.'
After Printype was perfected and
placed on The Oliver Model 5, came
hundreds of interesting tests which
conclusiyely proved the surprising
merit Of prntype
