HANDY BAG HOLDER
SAVES MUCH Time
Light Materials May Be Used in
Construction of Device for
Granary or Barn.

Every farmer should have some kind
OF bag holder, so that grain, chop or
bran can be sacked without requiring
the services of second person. A
square or round hopper, stationary in
some corner of the granary or a NOV
able one supported by three spreading
legs is easy to make and handy to use.
Light material may be employed in
making such holder.
The height of the hopper from the
floor is regulated by the length of the
bags used, as the bottom of the bag
should not rest on the ground while
being filled.
Dull hooks or nails of such length
and position as judgment dictates will
hold the bag while it is being filled.
Such conveniences as these are simple,
but they save not only time but much
needed energy.

ALWAYS KEEP MILK

Bacteria Increase Very Slowly at
Low Temperatures-Put Ii
quid Against the Ice.
By WALTER 3. LEUTZ.)

The colder milk is kept, the longer
it will remain sweet. Bacteria are
responsible for the changes which take
place, and bacteria increase in mum.
bers very slowly at low temperatures
Therefore, do not leave milk where
1t will get warm. II possible, put it
directly against the ice.
If this cannot be done, put 1t in the
compartment of the ice box directly
beneath the ice, for the air circulating
through the ice chest is coolest direct.
ly after it passes over the ice.
IL no ice box is used, keep the milk
as cool as possible by putting it in the
cellar. or by wrapping the bottle in a
damp cloth and setting it out of the
