KEEPING DIRT FROM MILK
BETTER THAN REMOVING 1T

While some Of the dirt in
milk comes from the air, the
hands and clothing of the mixer,
and unclean strainers, pals, cans,
and other utensils, the greater
part drops from the body of the
cows during milking. Straining
removes the coarse particles of
dirt but eliminates neither the
fine dirt nor bacteria. The pro
cess improves the appearance of
the milk but may give a false i'm
preston of the real cleanliness of
the milk if the results are used
as the sole guide.
Cheese cloth and wire strain
ers, because of their coarse
meshes, are unsatisfactory for
straining milk. Absorbent cotton
and filter cloth, which can be
bought from drug stores or dairy
supply houses at comparatively
moderate cost, remove most of
the sediment from milk.
Since the body of the COW is
the chief ource of dirt in milk
she should be groomed frequent
ly. In addition the flanks, I'D
der, and adjacent belly should be
cleaned with a moist cloth just
before milking. These parts if
kept clipped are much easier to.
