should be stored in barrels or casks
which have an opening in their top, in
order that the. air may get into the
liquid. Keep it at a temperature of
40 to so degrees. This temperature
can be raised and the bacterial process
fastened somewhat, but we prefer to
have it 60 on more slowly. BY going
more slowly. you will make better
quality of vinegar. The various stages
of vinegar making will require from
three months to almost a year, de.
pending entirely upon the amount of
air that gets into the barrels, and
also the temperature at which this
liquid is stored. This is frequently
improved by having it stand out in
an exposed place where the sun can
shine upon it, and in this way hasten
the bacterial action.

STATE COLLEGE NOTES

We can hardly say that alfalfa will
take the place of bran, but If a cow is
not giving milk she can very easily
live on alfalfa alone, whereas if you
feed with bran you must give her
some roughage to make up the bulk.
The two contain very nearly the same
elements but since one is a concen-
trate and the other roughage, they
cannot be used interchangeable. They
are both highly heterogeneous so would
suggest that you feed in connection
some feed high in carbohydrates.
