SURFACE COOLER IS
BEST FOR COOLING
Pmnpt mritai to SO degrees Fah
renheit la absolutely essential for pro
ducing milk of lew bacteria count,
mm JT. C. Button, professor of dairy
ing at tl>« New Jersey College of Agrt
caltare la New Brunswick.
The quickest and therefore "best way
ef cooling milk Is to ran It over a
surface cooler. On sack a cooler the
■llk passes over the outside surface
la a thin layer. Cold water Is circu
ited through the Inside and thus
chills the milk. By this means the
temperature of the milk csa be
brought within two or three degrees
of the temperature of the wster. Ice
water will be needed la hot weather
to bring milk to 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
Morning's milk should he cooled to
at least 50 degrees Fahrenheit.
Night's milk may. however, be cooled
within two or three degrees of the
temperature of spring or well water,
since It Is sfterward placed in the
cooling tank where further chilling can
take place. The water In this vat
should not be above 45 degrees.
After milk has been cooled by a sur
face cooler it can bd held at 50 de
grees Fahrsnlielt by placing in the vat
two to two and a half pounds of Ice
for every gallon of milk. If the mlik
is not pre-cooled before being placed
ia the vat, four pounds or more of ice
are needed to cool each gallon of tnllk.
This pre-coollng will cat In half the
aiooant.ef Ice required in the tank.
The ase of small-top milk pails and
deaa, sterilised utensils, and the
milking of dean, healthy cows help
to keep bacteria out of milk. Some
always get in, however, and unless the
milk Is cooled quickly tliey multiply
rapidly. U> *nrm mlik bacteria dou
ble their uuuilu-r every half-hour. At
50 degrees they reproduce very slowly.
Cows Swallow All Sorts
of Dangerous Objects
Cows (wallow all sorts of strange

Various Roots Are Good
Feed for the Dairy-Cow
Hoots of all kinds sre good feed for
dairy cows. Beets are especially val
uable. for they not only supply nu
trients n a good form, bat they do not
in any way affect the quality of milk.
Rutabagas and turnips do affect the
quality of milk, and especially If fed
just before milking. If they are fed
after milking. It Is difficult to discern
any flavor la the milk, but bntter made
from it will, upon standing a few
weeks or months, develop an objec
tionable flavor. Thly has led soma
creameries producing hlgh-qualtty bat
ter to request their patrons not to
feed turnips or rutabagas.

POULTRY DAMAGED
BY DISINFECTANTS
(Fnftnd by th« United State* Depirtnnt
of Axrlcultur*.)
As a result of the widespread use
of cheap coal tar products with a
strong carbolic add odor for disinfect
ing poultry houses and coops, large
quantities of poultry contaminated
with the odor have been received at
some of the big markets. The
of animal industry. United States De
partment of Agriculture, has received
complaints from handlers of market
poultry who have suffered heavy losses
because of the unsalablllty of tainted
fowl, one large firm reporting a losa
of SIO,OOO on four cars.
Because of the appearance of Euro
pean ffprl pests In certain parts of
the country, farmers throughout the
East and West, through fear
of this disease, have been doing much
more disinfecting than usual. In many
Instances chemicals with strong and
Offensive odors have used, many
of them not In the list approved by
the department, and In some cases the
results have been aggravated by the
failure. to dilute the product. Birds
kept In houses so treated, or shipped
In crates reeking with the odors, ab
sorb them into their bodies, where
they remain after the birds have been
killed and dressed. It Is thought that
another source of the contamination
In dressed birds may have been feed
on which the chemicals have been
sprayed. When such penetrating odors
are present in the disinfectant nsqd
the birds should not be marketed with
in less than two weeks of the time It
was used and then not in crates re
cently so treated.
Coops and poultry houses should al
ways be thoroughly cleansed before
disinfecting. A good plan Is where
possible to scrub the Interior with hot
lye solution or scalding hot'.water.
Such cleaning solutions are themselves
good disinfectants. If scalding hot
water Is not' available, the coops may
be disinfected with a 4 per cent solu
tion of formaldehyde. While this dis
infectant has a very pungent disagree
able smell, the odor soon disappears,
If. the poultry are marketed for sev
eral weeks a three per cent solutlon'oC
compound solution of creosot or a
product of similar compositon may be
employed. Any coal tar disinfectant
to apt to leave an odor which win
gradually disappear. ,
Many cheap products are now being
■old In response to the unusual de
aund which has arisen since the ap
pearance of the fowl pest In certain
section* peddlers are taking advantage
of the situation and are going to the
farms with a great variety of cheap
disinfectants, sometimes doing the
work for the fanner. Some of them

from local gas plants.

Sodium Fluorid Useful
in Treating Poultry
Sodium fluorid is an Insecticide used
tar treating poultry for lice by plact)
lng just a small bit of it at different
points In' the feathers of the fowl'
where lice are usually found. Al
though It Is a poisonous substance, the
poultry do not seem to get enough of
ft into their digestive system to cause
trouble. If used on cattle there would
be more danger of poisoning because
cattle wouTd be more likely to get it
into their digestive system by licking
themselves.
For cattle a mixture of one-half
powdered - sabadllla seed and one-half
sulphur Is favored. This can be spread
along the backs and necks of cattle
where the lice are most likely to be,
and will be found quite .effective la
keeping them in check so that they
will cause very little trouble to the
cattle.
