H ER E la no more reamOT>r:itive
method of disposing of tuilk
nud cream from the farm than
supplying the retail trade.
At the present time there are few
businesses which if viewed In the prop
er light present such a serious aspect
Milk Is almost the sole food of the
infaut man the llrst year or two of his
life. lie depends entirely ou It duriug
his frailest and most helpless period.
A great number of babies have to de
pend solely on cows' milk for their
nourishment. The purity of the milk
has a marked Influence ou the health
of the child. Milk laden with bacteria
Is always more or less unwholesome
and may to Infants be actually and ac
tively poisonous, giving rise to vomit
ing, diarrhea and gastro intestinal dis
turbanoes. I would not unduly alarm,
but to read statistics of the mortality
of infants and to see the great nurn
ber of deaths said to be directly at
ti'ibuted to bad milk make oue shud
der at what is going on. It appears
like murder without intent.
These conditions exist mostly In large
cities where the milk Is shipped from
all quarters for great distances.
When u farmer sends off a can of
milk he has no Idea into what homes it
finds its way. Some Is likely to go to
feed a tiny baby, some the very sick
and some the enfeebled aged—all with
weak digestion and low vitality, all de
pending on the milk to strengthen and
build them up.
The man who supplies a city or town
milk trade should think of these
things; should think of the lives he
really holds In his keeping. The cow
has little to answer for personally In
regard to bad milk.
There are but two things necessary
to keep the milk pure and sw eet Keep
the milk clean, then the bacterial con
tent will be low. Quickly cool the
milk and keep It cold, and the bacteria
which nre in it will cease to develop.
Pasteurization is recommended, but
where the other two requirements nre
rigidly enforced it Is not necessary.
Besides, pasteurized milk does not
agree with every one.
In some provinces and states there Is
legislation regarding the percentage of
fat and total solids in milk. Vastly
more important is it that a certain
standard of purity be enforced. There
Is no more vital food problem thnn
that of the milk supply. Some go so
far as to say that dairy farms should
be under municipal management Just
the same ns the water system. Every
detail of the milk trade would then be
under special Inspection, which should
result lu supplying purer milk and low
erlug the death rate among Infants.
Milk For Retail.
The Ideal method for preparing milk
for retail Is. first, to have the milk of
best quality. Take It to the milk room
separate from the stable und Immedi
ately cool It to 45 degrees. Then bot
tie In sterilized bottles and seal the tops
with paraffined paper caps. It should
be shipped as soon as possible, either
packed In ice or in refrigerator cars.
Milk should reach the consumer uot
Inter than twenty four hours after It is
drawn.
When we see oysters, ice cream, etc..
carried In paper pails the pnper milk
bottle may come into use in the near
future. It certainly would do away
with the drend of badly washed glass
bottles.
As bacteria lurk In the crevices of
Imperfectly dennisl vessels, all palls
ami cans In which milk is placed should
be thoroughly cleaned and scalded. It
Is most Important that there 1« no hid
den nooks and corners In the tinware.
Blind seams anil crevices are breeding
places for the worst forms of germ life.
A liberal use of solder renders the in
side of palls, cans. dlpi>ers and strain
ers perfectly smooth and clennable.
Not until we get the consumers
roused to the Importance of clean milk
will conditions greatly Improve. To
most of them milk Is milk, and that la
the tie ginning and end of I t They
should be concerned about Its source.
Are the cows healthy? Is the milk
ing done In a cleanly manner? Is there
any contngloua disease among the at
tendants? These are questions about
which the housewife should concern
herself. When milk Is guaranteed pure
It usually commands a higher price.
Extra precaution entalla extra expense
The milk often becomes bad after It
Is received from the milkman because
It Is not properly cared for in the home
Too frequently the milk Is put into a
jug or pall which has only been rinsed
since tielng emptied of milk. All milk
v essels must be scalded. Another bad
practice Is allowing the milk to stand
ou the kitchen table or la some other
T
warm pTnee. The mmt should be cov
ered aud kept In a cool, clean place.
It is a good plan to place a square of
clean wet cotton over the milk pitcher.
In warm weather, when souring is
feared. It ts a wise precaution to heat
It to 185 degrees and quickly cool i t
Danger from disease germs also is
averted by doing this.
The souring of milk during a thun
derstorm ts due not to the thunder, but
to the wnrm, sultry weather preceding
the storm, making conditions favorable
to the rapid growth of bacteria.
Do not place a bowl or Jug on the
door step for the milkman to fill. The
dust falling Into It may be sufficient
! to spoil the milk.

T h s C re am Trade.
Cream for retnil should receive the
same cure ns milk. Crenm is generally
sold by the quart or gallon nnd should
be of a stipulated per cent of fat. Com
mercial or single cream usually con
tains from 20 to 25 per cent fat. Dou
ble cream 40 per cent. It takes three
and one-third pints o f 20 per cent
cream to make a pound of butter. By
comparing the price obtnlned for cream
with that for butter, one can ascer-
i tuin which Is the better way of dispos
ing of the cream. Practically speak
ing. 100 pounds of 4 i>er cent milk will
make 20 pounds (two gallons) of 20
l>er cent cream.
It is a crime to add to the milk or
| cream uny preservative. There are
few. If any, that are not Injurious, and
many are really poisonous. Agents will
sell a powder or solution which, if used
to rinse the cans, will prevent the milk
from souring. Surely such an argu
ment should arouse suspicion. These
so called remedies have been known
to contain enough formaldehyde (a
poison) to he dangerously harmful.
The farmer may add a little preserv
ative saying, “This pinch cannot do
any harm." The wholesale man, not
knowing what has already been done,
nilds his small portion, and the retail
dealer, who runs the greatest risk of
the milk souring, puts in nn extra
dose. No one Is able to sum up the sad
results.
When ordinary milk does not sour
under usual conditions within a reason
able time, there Is something wrong.
More attention is eneh year being
given to the retail trade. leg islative
sanitary Inspection of the milk, cows
nnd stables nnd the establishing of
pure milk depots to supply milk for
Infants especially are lessening the
evils.
Milk produced under the best of con
ditions. cooled Immediately and bottled
has been kept sweet for eighteen days
In the heat of summer. The milk was
not pasteurized.
Cleanliness and prompt cooling were
the only preservatives. We can recom
mend no others.
