PRODUCING CLEAN MILK.

I have handled and mixed cows ever since l was big enough and have always been Q stickIer for cleanliness, according to my standards. After 10 years experience in winning and hold ing a private cream and butter trade, I can say, writes A Cornell that while I am no more of a sticEler for clean liness today than 10 years ago, my standards are more advanced
 l was brought Up to have a different standard for milk than for water. I thought that after milk was strained it was clean and pure. When the hand separator was brought on the scene, however. it revealed the presence of dirt ir the milk
 By being more careful about bedding and brushing the cows I found that I could reduce tke dirt in the separator bowl to the minimum It occurred to me hat since they got most of the dirt from the barn floor and ward, it would be a great advantage to have a good cement floor and gut ter and keep the barn and yard well cleaned and bedded.
 I never had that objectionable habit of wet teat milking I always milk the first milk from each teat into the gut ter as this seems to make for CleanIi- ness. I find that rubbing the cow Udder with a damp cloth and keeping the milk pail from being directly under the COW, keeps the hair from falling into the pail while milking To pre- vent the dust and hay leaves from falling on the cows and into the milk l ceiled my milking room with matched boards.
 While milking one morning, I noticed how a shaft of sunlight revealed the presence of considerable dust particles and COW hair floating in the air of the barn. This prompted me to use my srTinlIling can in throwing a fine spray over the cows and floor of the barn i'm mediateIy after brushing the cows This costs nothing. takes but few minutes and is effective in helDins Eeen the milk LID to standard
