By IRA MILLER R u ra l E le c trific a tio n llu rc a u the fact that milk is one D ESPITE of the most perishable of prod ucts, there are many farmers who handle it as though it were among the most stable. Not only do they make little or no effort to keepjheir hands and utensils thoroughly clean but also they are extremely careless about the condition of their cows and barns. Milk obtained under such con ditions is bound to be highly con taminated with bacteria and foreign flavors. These will greatly reduce the value of the milk and, if serious enough, lead to its rejection. But even when every possible sani tary precaution is observed—as now is required by law in many states— milk still cannot retain its purity and freshness unless it is cooled to 50° or less within lt4 hours after it is drawn. If this is not done, the growth and multiplication of bacteria, un avoidably present, will be so great and so rapid as to preclude any pos sibility of obtaining premium prices for top quality. As it is only in exceptional cases that milk can be cooled below 60” with water alone, it is obvious that the old-time milk house—located over spring or well—cannot maintain milk in prime condition. The only other alternative is artificial refrig S IA L s p e c I FOR FRIDAY and SATURDAY — May 19-20 1 r * - - ki _ 1 V w O rn ( V i e d 1 C ln n ra L O ta iC n 9 lb. bags white or yellow 1 lb- packages, Corn or Gloss, 3 for 25c The program is as follows; Processional .Mrs. Joe Stam: In- ocation.

Although ice will produce and hold <if carefully watched) the desired temperature, it is difficult to handle and requires much hard work—espe cially if one harvests his own ice. If he does not, there is the problem and expense of obtaining a sufficient and regular supply. In addition, numerous studies have shown that, if the farmer charges for all labor involved, the cost of cooling with ice is from 3 to 4 cents higher for each 100 pounds of milk than it is with a modern electric cooler. This device—imptoved, refined and reduced in price in recent years—is the ideal means of preserving milk at its maximum quality. It is quicker and more convenient than ice, auto matically maintains a uniformly low temperature within narrow limits, re quires a minimum of labor and at tention, yields a higher-grade product and is cheaper when all costs are considered and with electricity at 4 cents or less per kilowatt-hour. In cluding interest, depreciation and repairs, and with current at the three- cent rate, the total cost of an electric cooler will average less than 12 cents per 100 pounds of milk. Information and prices on the dif ferent types and sizes of electric milk coolers can be obtained by writing to the several manufacturers or to your state college or university.
