do the milking by hand in that length
of time
The women Will also he interested in
the machine because the washing of
dairy utensils usually falls to their lot
and many women testify that the
advent of the cream separator did not
tighten their task. While of course
the pail and teat cup of the mechanical
mixer must be kept clean the task is
not laborious one. Mr.. Shields has
tank made for the purpose of clean
ing pails, separator and other dairy
utensils. Such an arrangement with
large hot water tank attached to the
kitchen stove and a pipe to the wash
ing tank makes this task very easy on
the farm. Why. don't others have such
an arrangement?
We would not be doing justice to this
wonderful mixer if we did not mention
how it improves the quality of the
milk produced. Even on the most
careful dairy farms it is impossible to
keep dirt and the foul stable air from
the milk when MIXED by hand But
with Sharples mixer not bit of air
or dirt can come in contact with the
milk from the time it leaves the teat
until the air tight pail is opened at the
separator

duplex air pump. some piping. set
of teat cups Gas MANY sets as the
dairyman desires), milk bucket and
a patent pulsator.
The teat cup which does the milk
ing, consists of a metal exterior and
inside this is rubber diaphragm,
called an imitation, which conforms
perfectly with any teat. A vacuum is
created in the inner part of this inf1a
ton which causes the milk to flow
through the tube into the receiving
bucket
1t would not do to maintain this
suction on the teat constantly, as it
would draw down the tissues and clog
the teat. So this pressure is relieved
and air is forced into the teat cup out
side the rubber initiation, which presses
gently but firmly inward and upward
against the teat. This is the famous
upward squeeze" of the Sharples.
tissues are pressed back into position.
This upward squeeze" is claimed to
be essential to successful mechanical
milking. and is patented feature of
the Sharples. The tissues having been
restored. the pressure is withdrawn and
the suction once more draws the milk.
It may be stated here that simple
adjustment, taking about two seconds
time, adaptS the machine to hard or
easy mixers. and another simple
adjustment quickens or slows down the
speed of the pulsator and thus makes
| the milking process quicker or slower
as desired.
The reports from a number of dairy
| farmers who have installed these
mixers have been that it gives very
satisfactory service. The COWS appar-
emily take to it naturally and give
down their milk freely. 1t is uniform
in its work and under no circumstances
| loses its temper as so many hand milk
ers do, to the great loss of the COWS
1t is not surprising that it produces or
the average more milk than hanc
milking.
These mixers are made by the
Sharples Separator company of West
Chester. Pa. who are represented ir
this vicinity by C. o. Osha. H. r.
Seaver of Barton has the agency fol-
Orleans, Essex and Caledonia counties
for their machine. Mr.. Seaver in
stalled one of these mixers on the
farm of Alex Shields of Craftsbury
last June.

FARM NEWS AND NOTES

The Sharples machine was installed on
June 9th last. and its operation since
has been a pleasure, Mr.. Shields told
the writer He speaks in the highest
terms of it in every way and said that
1t was without regret that he walked
into Mr.. Sewers store and drew his
check for $678. 80 in payment for the
equipment Mr. Shields and his son

but without the aid of the mixer at
chore time he would be almost COM
PEELED to have another man. Here is
where the milking machine is finding
its place. The hired help problem is
very serious one for the farmer, and
dairymen specially have a hard time
to keep good reliable mixers on hand

was the mother of invention. Mr..
Shields thinks the mixer does no harm
whatever to the cows On the con-
trary its action is more gentle than
hand milking. But the principal
advantage that comes from a Sharples
Mixer is in the way Of saving hired
help and time. One man looking alter

Shields in one and one-half hours

A NEW WAY TO MILK COWS.

The ways of the world are constantly
changing. We are discovering new
and better ways for doing things
There seems to be no end Now comes
new way to milk cows and possy has
her milk distracted by a milking
machine.
Milking machines have been the
dream of farmers for decades and
many devices have been patented but
it is only in recent years thar anything
like success has been attained There
are today several milking machines on
the market that are claimed by their
makers to be practical At least
three. kinds have been tried out by
farmers of Orleans county in the past
three years. Some were discarded
after time and hand milking resorted
to but improvements have been maze
and the testimony of the users of these
machines is encouraging, in fact con-
vincing. The machine the writer
desires to talk about in this article is
the Sharples Mechanical mixer This
machine is made by the makers of the
Sharples Tubular separators.
1t is very simple machine when in
operation, requiring an engine of about
three horse power Then. there is a

If the town fails to do this, the trustees
are empowered to make an arrange

keep them together and properly care
for them. AS Mr. Harris left one of
the largest private libraries and collec-

never be broken up.
