(By W. M. KELLEY. New York;
In the production of cream that will
meet the demands of a fancy city
trade the care of the milk and the
sanitary methods of handling the
cows are the most exacting phases Of
business. Many people, when han
ding milk, forget that they are deal
Ing with food product. If filth is al
lowed to get into the milk at any
point of production, no amount Of care
afterward can make amends for this
difficulty.
The chief necessity in improving
dairy conditions is to give the pro-
Queer such knowledge Of the right
methods Of handling and caring for
the milk that he will see the necessity
for such methods and know how to
manage his work to accomplish the
desired results.
In selecting cows for producing
cream 1t is to our best interest to Sc
lect animals from breeds that have
an inherited tendency to produce a
large amount OF butter fat at the low
est cost and for that reason Jerseys
and Guernseys stand at the head of
the list as economic cream producers.
The factor Of importance is the san
itary conditions surrounding the herd.
To produce clean, wholesome cream
we must have clean stables, clean
yards, clean and wholesome feeds and
clean attendants.
The cows must be kept comfort
able at all times. This requires a
warm stable with plenty of light and
sunshine. Pure air Is fully as essen
tial as pure food and no man can pro-
duce fine favored cream II his stable
is contaminated with foul air. A num-
Der of authorities have said great
deal about how much cubic air space
each SOW should have, but believe II
Is more important than we provide a
plan to change the air frequently
rather than figure on the basis of sc
much air space.
To be sweet and clean 1t is almost
necessary that the stable be white
washed frequently. This makes q
cheap and effective disinfectant and II
is easily applied with spray pump

Jumps before using to prevent the noz
zle of the sprayer from getting clog

cause they are easy to keep clean
With cement floors and liberal use Of
straw and other absorbents it is mo-
difficult to keep stables neat an6
clean.
Many disagree as to whether the
milk should be separated fresh from

brick wall 9 inches thick may be used.
In eiths Sc the pit lining should
come flush with the surface of the
soil.
The site for the pit should be on
naturally well drained land, and tile
drain from the bottom of the excava-
ton should be provided to prevent the
water from accommodating in the pit
and stopping the fermentation of the
manure during the period the hotbed
is in use. Standard hotbed sash are
3 by feet. The pit. therefore, should
be some multiple of feet in length,
and the width should be the same as
the length of the sash, feet. The
plank frame, or brick work of the pit
may be extended above the surface Of
the ground sufficiently to allow for
placing the sash upon the frame.
Hotbed sash should be constructed
Of white pine or cypress. and the sash
bars should run In one direction only,
and that lengthwise Of the sash. The
bars may be braced through the mid
die by transverse bar placed
through the long bars below the glass.
The two ends OF the sash should be
made of sound timber, inches wide
at the top and 4 inches wide at the
bottom end, mortised to receive the
ends Of the sash bars. and with ten
on at the ends to pass through the
side pieces, which should be ~
inches wide.

the cows or whether 1t Is best to wait
until 1t is cooled and again brought
to the right temperature before being
separated. On the majority of farms
where fancy cream is produced, con-
siderable of the supply Is brought
from other farmers and for that rear
son 1t is best to have the separating
done at once. thus insuring a more
uniform quality OF cream.
Wash al 1.-The utensils after using.
Wash first with warm water to re-
move the milk, then with hot water,
soap or washing preparation. Sterilize
the cans and pals at least twice a
week. Leave the cans open so that
the air and sun can do their work
killing bacteria germs. The whole Sc.
cret Of success Is cleanliness from the
time the cows are MIXED until the
cream goes onto the table for the
consumer.
Avoid sudden changes in the line OF
feeding. A change of food many times
