fundamental principles in keeping
milk and cream in first class con.
dition. The separator bowl should
be cleaned after each separation.
10 run milk through bowl which
has not been washed since the last
separation is crime. The milk
pals and cream can should be
thoroughly washed with lukewarm
water and brush used instead of
cloth, and then rinsed with boil
ing water. These utensils should
then be drained and thoroughly
dried before milk or cream is again
placed in them. A teaspoonful of
wash water left in the bottom of a
can will ruin the best cream.
The inside of tinware should if
possible be exposed to the sun.
Sunlight and air are the best two
germicides known. The cooling
OF the cream and milk can be con-
veniently done in a small tank of
freshly pumped water. 1t should
be stirred, which will result in its
cooling two or three times more
quickly than if not stirred. If un-
stirred. the animal heat in the cen
ter of the bulk will permit bacteria
to grow, which will become dis
tributed through the entire bulk
and which cannot be controlled -

Oyerccminu Evil,

Overcoming evil with good is the

The rivers of the Emerald Isle have
