that there will be no danger of water

With these general requirements in
mind the committee. together with the
cooperation OF representative Of 10
cal creameries, devised, constructed
and experimental with a number OF
different kinds OF tanks to determine
their cost and efficiency.
As result the rectangular tank

cheaper than would be possible for a

To sum up il 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 well
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-
tary, clean, and we'll ventilated. other
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 approx
al Of the farmers on this bad cream
propaganda, II, along with this de-
-22nd, 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 Sc
cured for it.

tEy J II FRANDSEN. Professor OF
Dairy bus bandry, University Of Ne
braskG)
As result of market investigations
carried on by the United States dairy
division some time ago to determine
the quality of American butter, large
amount OF the butter examined was
found 20 be of inferior quality be-
cause cf the roor cream from which
it had been made. That such state
OF affairs exists is bad enough but still
more discOuraging is the fact that dur
ing the last few years the amount OF
poor am has not decreased.
" We stop to consider that the
production Of cream and butter IS one
of the leading industries of the nation,
the one industry that serves and has
served the American farmer well, not
only in years OF bountiful crops and
high prices, but has been a faithful
standby in years OF crop failures and
hard times, il is evident that poor
quality in the production OF cream
must mean a needless loss Of thou
sands. OF dollars TO the producers.
Moreover, it gives foreign butter Just
the chance it would like to have to
compete in our own markets.
Although modern methods and ma
chinery have done much TO improve
the quality of creamery butter. the
most skillful buttermaking using the
best of machinery cannot overcome the
evil effects arising from the filthy
methods followed by some cream pro-
ducers.
Frequent experiments have shown
that low temperatures will greatly re-
tard the growth of most germs and
that cream quickly cooled will keep
sweet much longer than when it is
allowed TO cool gradually. The prac-
tice Of adding warm cream to cream
that has been previously cooled is rec
ogniZed as being extremely undesira.
BILE because warm cream raises the
temperature OF the whole mass sufIi-
GENTLY to start the dormant bacteria
to activity, causing them to multiply
rapidly, producing large amounts of
acid and also undesirable fermenta-
tons before the cream is again cooled
to a point where their growth is
checked. Warm cream should be thor
oughly cooled before it is added to the
cold cream.
From these facts il appears that the
most practical means at the disposal
OF the dairyman for checking bacte-
rial action-the spelling of cream-lies
in the universal application of low tenn
peratures in handling the cream. The
most satisfactory and practical means
of securing these desirable results has
been by the use Of some form of cool
ing tank.
Recognizing the great importance Of
devising cooling tank that will be at
once cheap. practical, and efficient. the
department of dairy husbandry OF Ne
braska in cooperation with Profs. G..
l. Mckay and F. ". BoGska Of the
American Creamery Butter Manufac-
turers' association have spent much
time investigating this problem. An
effort has been made to perfect tank
that would be both effective and con-
venient. Such a tank must be sub
stantiaIly made of good insulating ma
terial and able TO stand up under hard
usage. 1t must have a tight cover in
order to prevent loss of efficiency due
to exposure of the cooling water to
the air. The pipe through which the
cooling water enters should discharge

SCHOOLS FREE ONCE MORE
New District Bill Opens Washington
Schools to Children of All EN-
ployed in the City.

The appropriation bill for the Dis
trict of Columbia, which was passed
! by Congress on March 3,contained d
Joker for nearby Virginia and Mary
land. 1t admits free to the schools
of Washington the children Of all
persons employed in the District.
The Washington school authorities
are already making inquiries as to
the standing Of pupils so that they
may be ready for the changed con-
Gition when the law goes into effect
on July next.
For many years children from ad-
jacent parts of Virginia and Mary
land were admitted without charge
and with very little inquiry to the
schools OF the Capital. Then came
narrowing of the privilege to the
children Of persons employed in the
District and pupils were closely
questioned as to their status. Finally
the law gave free entrance only TO
children of Government employees.
Others had to pay tuition, or tute-
lage, as the law calls it, and not
Il few deserving children were stop
ped from school at the critical high
school age because the parents felt
they could not afford the luxury of
further education.
Last year Il hearing was held at
the behest of Senator Martin, and
among other pleas it was argued that
ii was bad public policy in demo-
cracy at least, TO interpose any bar
rier between children anywhere. and
the best education they would take.
il would be better 10 charge non
residents. OF Washington toll for COM
ing into the city and using the streets
i; was argued. But. the best that
could be got then was the acceptance
of any taxes parents might pay in the
District AS credit on account OF
tuition. Heretofore the taxes were
not credited unless they amounted to
enough to pay the tuition in full.
This year no public hearing was
held but Representative Carlln the
Virginia Senators and the Maryland
Congressman seem to have united
their efforts to secure the further ad-
vantage Of free entrance To Washing
ton schools Of children Of all per-
sons employed i'll the District whether
III the Government service or not;
and this is understood to include all
who have regular business in the
District whether employed and paid
salaries or not.
