Four Sources OF Dirty Milk,

Which end Of the bottle do you oh,
serve in judging the quality Of the
milk you buy? Look at the bottom of
the bottle now and then and make
sure the milk Is free from visible dirt
The depth of the cream column In u
bottle of milk should be considered
only after the bottom of the bottle
has been examined for sediment. Sed-
iment in the bottom of a milk bottle
indicates carelcssness in the produc-
tion, care and handling of milk.
The sources of dirt in milk, rs
stated by W.. d. Combs of the Uni
versity of Missouri College Of Agri-
culture, are: Dirty cows, dirty uten-
sils and bottles, dirty dairyman, and
