PREVENTION OF RoPY MILK

ing ropy milk asking the cause and
the cure The milk is strained at
night and the next morning the cream
is ropy and must be thrown away. 1t
Is not always easy 10 trace the cause
Of ropy milk to its source. Without
going into any lengthy explanation, II
may be said that ropy or Shiny milk
is caused by certain bacteria. One type
may be found In dirty, stagnant water.
II the COWS wade in this water their
TANKS and udders become the resting
place for this type. The bacteria are
easily transferred to the milk at milk
ing time. The stable becomes infect
ed, as 1t were, and also the utensils
that come in contact with the milk.
The germs lodge in the crevices OF the
utensils and readily propagate in the
warm milk. The cure lies in absolute
cleanliness. All utensils should be
thoroughly scalded. Lime Is an ex'
cellent destroyer OF all germ life. The
utensils may be given a coating OF the
slaked lime, then washed In boiling
water. II may be necessary to give
the stable a thorough cleaning with
lime used as whitewash.

precaution was to have the dishes and

Name the calves from the first and
their training will be much easier.
A calf should be fed five times
daily about three plnts at each meal.

dairy farming is having too much
