Onion I'lavorS in Milk.

There is no way that | know Of
TO rcmO"c The flavor Of onions from
any finished dairy product, such as
butter or cheese. There are meth
DDS by which creamery can heat
the milk or cream up to 100 de-
grcCS or more and by continued
blowing Of pure air through it re-
move all onion flavor. This would
be impracticablc for any farm and
the only way to keep onions out Of
farm dairy products is to prevent the
COW from eating onions. This is
very difficult to do, though. where
feeds are not provided to tide over
the onion season. The flavor Of on
ions can be greatly reduced if the
cow is taken off the pasture that con-
tains onions some three or four
hours before milking time If she
is turned back on the pasture immc-
diatcly after milking and taken off
again with some period Of time elaps-
ing before milking, very much less
trouble will be experienced.
There are many supposed reno
dies. such as feeding salt, molasses
and other feeds. but they have no
value whatever. The feeding Of mo-
lasscs has been tested by our de
partmcnt and W find that it has no
virtue whatever in removing onion
