Mr. Mendenhal Gives Instruction As To The Handling Of Cream Head Carefully and Follow Instructions For Best KeSults OF INTEREST TO PERSON ? The pricii paid for cream is 'govern ed t > a j^reat- extent by the quality of cream that is delivered to the Creamery. Butter made from fjoo<? cream always brings a c?o>l price and butter made from bad cream is always a d raj? on the market. It is therefore important that much care b^ priven to the cream prior to de livery. Because cream is sour is no in dication that it is not fit for use. Cream is unfit for use only when off flavors be&m to develop, which m&y be caused by keepina: the cream in unsanitary places-, suob as damp mouldy basements or cellars, ill ventilated milk boxes, or the use of vessels that have not Ween properly scalded and sunned, or unsanitary milking stalls, cows that have dirty udders and flanks. Nothing shows up unsahitary conditions more readi ly than milk and Cream. Producers should h?ve no trouble, in shipping good cream if they will bring the cows in at least three hours before mllkinj? tWm?, if they are eating onions, rye, clover*' buds or anything tbatigives the milk an .. off flavor. Then 1 ihe 1 Milk separate iL cqol thfr cream at_ once, and keep <rool, a* ps^ible uptil time^ for delivery. ' , ] ' If 'you have"-n apHfcz .run build ft : ? : ! I box -.so that it wiH be in the .shade. J build it deep eno-ifirh ro . that the! cream i? actually all below the ran- ; I n sr *water and you will havo ideal , conditions. N* ever mi v. yemr . freVh ' ?opurato.l cream' with the old until j it is coaled* to the same temperature." If you do not liave a- spring run, the | same principle may he brnupht out ) in a box between the- welt and" horse. i trough so that All the ?vater the j horses drink will have to po thrbuph : this. box. ^If you d) not have a separator t"h.< 1 above conditions will apply just the] same, excfcpt that it will require more room. (Jse shallow pans so | that the cream can rise to the topi before the milk sours and locks' it it up in the. skim-milk. When your milk becomes a smooth clabber, skim of the cream, beinp careful to pet only the cream and handle tr.e same as if a separator had been U3ed> Dont try to keep your milk from sourinp, but keep it cOol enouph so that it will sour slowly, pivinp all j the cream tifhe rise to the top I So you can pet it att. Remember that bad flavors in but ter are not caused hy, the cream pet tinp too sour so often as it is -caused1 by poor handlinp methe'di as shoWn above. .
