TO OBTAIN HEALTHFUL MILK
Cows, Barns and Yards Must Be Kept
clean-SmaII Top Pals Keep
Out Foreign Matter.

(By v. r. JONES' Dairy Husbandry De
partment. South Dakota State College.)
Cows must be healthy and kept
clean.
Barns should be kept clean, well
lighted and ventilated.
The barnyard should be kept clean
and properly drained.
Utensils should be thoroughly
washed and scalded or steamed and
kept in a clean room.
Cows should be fed good wholesome
food and pure water.
Mixers and attendants who come
in contact with the milk should be
healthy and clean.
Cows should not be fed at milking
time or Immediately before. Dust from
feed falls into the milk and contain.
mates it with germs.
Wipe the udder and side of COW
with damp cloth and milk with
clean, dry hand.
Use small-topped milking pail. This
helps to keep foreign matter from the
milk.
Remove the milk Immediately after
milking to a separate room from the
barn to be strained and cooled. Cool
milk to as low temperature as pos
sible without freezing. Forty or fifty
degrees +. retards growth of most
germs. and particularly those that
cause milk to sour quickly.
