CLEANLINESS IS BIG ASSET
Duty Of Every Dairy Farmer to See
That Output Is WhoIesome--lt
Lessons Complaints.

Farmers who produce clean milk
possess a business asset the value Of
which many do not fully appreciate.
The public Is better informed, by far,
than It was a few years ago regarding
the value Of pure milk as food, 1t
knows more Of the dangers Of unclean
milk Therefore, as a business propo-
sltion az well as from a sense Of duty,
every farmer owning milk cows should
see to It that the output is whole
some.
Clean milk benefits not only the con-
sumner but the milk producer as well.
Most producers Of market milk have
experienced the chagrin of having a
shipment Of milk refused or returned
because It reached the market sour,
tainted, or otherwise In poor condi-
tIon. Although such milk may be USED
for feeding pigs, it usually is a com
plete loss TO the producer, since the
cost Of transportation back TO the
farm usually exceeds its value.
Frequently, also, the producer de-
pends on a certain market as an out
let for his milk and has no means for
utilizing small quantities at uncertain
Intervals, even if he had it at the
farm. Another important consldera-
tion is that unpleasant effect which the
receipt of sour tainted, or otherwise
unstable milk has upon the purchas-
er. Delivering milk Of that kind usual
ly results in the loss of the confidence
Of the dealer, or, if it is delivered di-
rectly to the consumer, the loss of Gus
toners.
Clean milk means fewer complaints,
a better class of patrons, and a steady
market for the product. Carelessly
produced and Improperly handled milk
may be the means Of spreading dis
