Had you lived when Westminster Abbey
or any other great Cathedral Of Europe was
being built you would, as a citizen, have
wanted some share in that great religious
campaign.
The campaign in Washington for funds to
build the National Cathedral has in few
days brought the realization that the cathe-
draI spirit Of the fourteenth century lives in the
hearts Of the people Of this community.
Already morethan$ $780, 00havebeen sub
scribed. And this despite the fact that the
inevitable limitations Of time made it impos~
sible for those who have been devoting their
days to the Cathedral project personally to
call upon all those who wish to play some
part in building this witness to the faith Of the
nation.

have been unable to reach in person will

DAIRY
POINTS
Essentials for Caring
for Milk in Hot Season

During the winter months 1t Is COM
paratively easy to handle milk so 1t
will keep sweet. In the summer months
comes the real test. You cannot ham
die milk and cream successfully dur
Ing the summer without having some
means Of cooling it quickly and keep
Ing It at low temperature. The use
of a tank Is the most satisfactory
means which can be employed. The
pump should be kept going so that
fresh water direct from the well Is
flowing through this cooling tank. On
many farms where such tank is used
all the water going to the various
stock tanks Is first pumped into the
cooling tank, the overflow wafer going
to the stock. Keeping milk sweet is
almost entirely a matter Of cleanii-
ness and temperature regulation.
You cannot call yourself a success
full dairyman until you have learned
how to produce clean milk. Milk is a
human food and should be treated as
such. Dirty milk always sours more
quickly than clean milk and quite often
has other bad fiavors. These bad flaw
ors and the souring are caused by
bacteria, which are tiny organisms too
small to be seen with the naked eye.
They are everywhere present and every
particle of dirt has upon it large num-
bers Of these tiny organisms. Most of
the bacteria which get into the milk
come from dirt on the COW, which falls
in the pail while you are milking.
These organisms also get into the milk
from the utensils, such as cans, pals,
strainers, coolers and separators which
have not been properly cleaned and
sterllized before using.
The bacteria reach their greatest ac-
tivity and multiply most rapidly when
the Temperature of the milk Is high.
They increase very slowly at lower
temperatures and for this reason milk
should be cooled as quickly as possible
and kept at least as low IN temperature
as water fresh from the well. Milk
would never sour If it were possible
to keep all the bacteria out of it, but
some of these organisms get In in spite
Of our efforts to keep them out, and
TIC Oniy tllliS we Gull w Is W hStp
them from increasing rapidly in num-
bers.
Briefly, then, the essentials In car
Ing for milk In the summer are to milk
In as Clearly manner as possible,
wiping the flank and udder Of the COW
with moist cloth before milking, or
even washing If these parts are very
dirty, careful cleansing and scalding
! of utensils. protecting the milk from
J files and dirt after 1t has been drawn
and finally cooling 1t as quickly as
/ possible and holding 1t at a low tenn
perature. 1t may be possible to ge
J along without a milk house or mill
] room but the best results in keeping
4 milk OF cream in the proper condition
I will come from having room planned
for the purpose of handling it in the
best manner possible and the cooling
/ tank is perhaps one Of the most es
I sential features of the milk room.
