Summer is one Of the easiest
seasons in which to produce clean
milk. There will be times, how
ever, when a considerable amount
of mud and dirt will collect on
the udder and fanks of cows, and
il portion OF this material drops
into the milk it will injure its
keeping quality. The dirt which
collects on the hanks and udder
should be removed before milking
time by wiping with a damp cloth.
If the hair on the udder and UNDER
line is clipped short the cleaning
can be done effectively and quick
ly. Incidentally, the practice of
clipping the COW all over before
turning to pasture not only makes
it tacier to keep her clean, but it
relieves the itchy condition that
develops during the stabling
months.
Much of the milk produced in
the country is hauled long dis
tances in large trucks. In sum-
mer if the cans Of milk are not
protected from the sun before
leaving the farm, and again en-
route, it will be difficult to keep
the milk sweet until il is used.
Every time a days milk is re-
turned to the farm, for whatever
reason, there is a distinct fnan-
cial loss. Only by producing a
sanitary milk and then taking
care of it can satisfactory results
be obtained to all concerned.

tits now the time when the dairy
COW, the foster mother Of man
kind, is to be given a chance
under natural conditions. New
information which has recently
been discovered at some of the
state agricultural colleges indi-
Gates that green feed and sun
light combined make il possible
for a cow to build up her system
by storing minerals and other
body reserves, provided she re-
eeives sufficient supply of good
feed.
A heavy milking COW, however,
will need feed in addition to pas
ture if the milk flow is to be
maintained. Milking heavily with
pasture as the sole source of feed
causes the COW to lose weight.
This loss Of weight should be
watched and extra feed given to
prevent the cow from becoming
thin, which will result in reduced
milk production later.
With the coming of the sum-
mer season, new and interesting
problems present themselves
which concern the care of milk.
The first warm nights are apt to
cause milk to sour unless summer
care is practiced. tits important to
take precautions which will keep
down the number of bacteria and
prevent their growth. To do this
milk must be produced under
clean conditions. be kept in thor
ouchly cleaned utensils, and be
cooled as soon as possible after
Il comes from the COW.
