TREND OF CROP CONDITIONS IN
OHIO DURING AUGUST, 1915

With scarcely an exception grow
ing crops in the state suffered from
slight to Il material decline in condi-
tion during the month. The corn
crop shallow rooted due to the moist
condition of the soil at planting time,
could not withstand prolonged
drought without undergoing serious
damage. The paintings that passed
the critical period while in the midst
of the drought, as general rule. did
not ear properly, and some of the late
paintings, especially on upland
ground, in some sections were dam
aged apparently beyond recovery.
However, when sufficient rainfall oc-
Cured durin gthe month marked
Improvement in the crop is noticeable
although unfortunately in some in
stances the rain wa accompanied by
high wind which blew down con-
siderable of the corn. Thrashing re-
turn from the oat crop indicate
lighter yield than was expected in
the majority of instances, due. to the
hot dry weather during the filling
period. Barley and buskwheat show
a decline during the month, and the
potato crop prospect was materially
reduced by the hit, dry weather and
ravages by the Colorado beetles. The
tobacco crop outlook was not very
promising until rains occurred, since
when material progress has been

age during the month was severe. The
hay crop this season was unusually

HINTS FOR HEALTH
CARE OF MILK CANS
Thorough Washing and Sterilization
Necessity in the Production
of Clean Milk

In justice to the farmer, milk deal
ers should give considerable attention
to the question of washing the cans
before they are returned. If the cans
are allowed to go back unwashed to
the farmer, it is a very difficult task
for him, with his limited facilities,
to clean them.
In circular letter recently sent to
milk dealers by theDairy division of
the department, 1t was pointed out
that bacterial counts made from cans
which had been washed and rinsed in
the ordinary manner showed that
there were from 100000 to 1S,OOO,-
600 bacteria in each can, with an
average of 100000. If 10 gallons
of milk were put into one Of these
cans there would be added more than
10 bacteria to each cubic centimeter of
the milk. That is to say, this is the
least number that would be added
Whereas, it was pointed out, with a
little steaming these same cans could
have been rendered practically sterile.
One dealer who recently installed a
modern washing machine employed
bacteriologist to test the results. 1t
was found that less than 10000 bec-
terra were in a can, and among them
were no undesirable types. Bacterial
counts of cans treated by less eff
cient steaming device which this
dealer had formerly employed ran as
high as 20,0O0,000 bacteria to the can,
including some undesirable kinds.
There were number of different
types of cleaning machines on the
market. The aim of all the efficient
ones, however, is the thorough cleans
ing with washing powder and water,
rinsing, sterilization with steam, and
rapid drying. After this the can
should be covered and kept from con-
tamination.
one of the simplest of the machines
is a jet device, by means of which
sprays of cold and hot water and of
steam are successfully forced into the
can. This type also is equipped
sometimes with a drying attachment
b means of which draft of dry air
is forced into the can. Another type
is the brush machine, in which cans
are brushed out with washing powder
and water and then rinsed After
washing they may be steamed by
spray of steam. Some of the largest
machines are fitted with powerful
pumps, the cans in an inverted posi-
tion being run through the machine
and sprays of soap and water, rinse
water, hot water and steam success
Sively forced into them under con-
siderable pressure. They are then
dried in the same machine.
The drying Of the cans is an i'm
portant factor, for it not only leaves
them i'm a much better condition, but
1T tends to prevent rust. The cover
also must not be neglected. 1t is as
important that it be as thoroughly
cleansed and steriliZed as the can it.
self 1t is not good plan to put the
cover on the can until the latter is
quite dry. In the interval the can
should be kept in clean place where
there is no dust or contamination.
On the farm, cans, pals, and other
utensils may be sterilized very effi-
ciently with an inexpensive sterilizer
which is fully described in Farmers
Bulletin 74S. This bulletin may be
obtained upon application to the De-
partment of Agriculture.
