 overflow near the top and at the op- posite end and should be of such size that there will be no danger of water rising above the tops of the cans. With these general requirements in mind the committee. together with the cooperation of representatives of To- cal creameries, devised, constructed and experimented with a number of different kinds of tanks to determine their cost and efficiency.
 As result the rectangular tank shown in Fig. l gave highly satisfac- tory results. Later round tank shown in Fig. II embodying the flea lures of the rectangular tank, was found to give satisfactory results and has the advantage of being constructed cheaper than would be nossible for a rectangular tank. The committee Is still working on a substantially built, well-insulated metal tank
 Upon the recommendation of the committee the Association of Ameri- can Creamery Butter Manufacturers adopted the round and the rectangu- lar tanks as shown in above cuts as the official tanks of the association. This association has already taken steps to have these tanks manufac. tured and distributed to parties inter- ested at the lowest possible cost To those desiring to build their own tanks plans and specifications will be fur. nished by the American Creamery But ter Manufacturers association.
 To sum up. it may be said that the quality of cream produced depends largely upon the conditions prevailing on the farm. Cleanliness is essential at every point. As some one has we'll said, Clean cream, cool cream. rich cream are essential factors in cream production"
 The responsibility, however, does not lie entirely with the farmer. The same care that must be exercised onthe farm must be observed at the cream station and creamery. The cream sta ton must be provided with proper cooling facilities and the quarters used for the cream station must be sani- tai y' tlSdL, anu NSil NSutlldlcu, OlutI- wise the work and care of the dairy man count for naught.
 Again. material improvement must come through cooperation with the railways engaged in the hauling of cream, whereby at their junction points at least shelter would be pro- vided which would protect the cream from the sun when left on the plat. form. Something too, could undoubt. edly be done toward providing more sanitary and better cooled cars for use in shipping cream.
 In conclusion, permit me to say that I anticipate but little trouble in get. ting the hearty and intelligent approv. al of the farmers on this bad cream propaganda. if, along with this de- mand, will come cream price based strictly on grade. As long as the cream producer sees his indifferent neighbor producing poor cream and knows he receives the same price for it, it will be extremely difficult to con- vince him that quality really counts in the making of butter. As a matter of fact, however. one should not lose sight of the fact that every additional can of good cream helps directly or indirectly the general average of the butter made as well as the price se- cured for 1t.

Cause of Ropy Milk.

Ropy cream or milk is caused by a germ. The germ may come from a dusty stable or stagnant pool of water through which a COW has waded. The difficulty may frequently be reme- died by thoroughly scraping the dried manure from the barn and then white washing the interior, and by thor ough scalding of all pails, cans, and the separator.-R.
