VISITS SUNNYSIDE DAIRY • I ! l One of the most interesting, as well as educational visits, the writer has ever had, was made on Monday af j ternoon when, with three friends, ,we visited the Sunnyside Dairy, op-! erated and owned by Mr. James Crow, Route 2, Forest City. We ar-! irived at the farm about 5:15, inspect-i 'ed the barns, in which we found 28 i cows which were being curried and washed by the caretakers before be-1 j ing milked. The barn is well light- ] •ed and ventilated and- also has a j concrete floor which is kept immacu- : lately clean at all times by the use \ of a splendid drainage and water, system, to which the water hose is attacked at convenient plaoes in the | j barn. In a small new building en- j i tirely separate, is the milk rooms, j i where we were shown the process of ! washing and sterilizing all utensils, I bottles and every article used in ; handling the milk. There we were shown the steam room, in which all these, utensils are kept from one milking time to the next. Next we were shown the cooling process, straining and bottling of the milk. This milk house is completely | screened, has concrete floors and every precaution is used for sanita tion. We all had the pleasure of seeing the milk brought in and run through ! the separator and cooling system. The - milk when first started through has J a temperature of about 90 degrees, J but after passing through the cool- j ing system stood at 50 degrees. The j greatest pleasure of all was that we were treated to a refreshing cool bottle of milk, which was "rich to the last drop." Another interesting de vice we saw used was the automatic milking machine, which is another feature that makes a grade A dairy, of which the Sunnyside Dairy is one of the few in the county. Both Mr. and Mrs. Crow were very | hospitable and we wish to coagratu ; late them on having a perfect dairy I and wish them much success. —"DOT." | Eleven Graduate J At Union Mills 'n- I j Union Mills, May 19—The sixth i annua l commencement exercises of . the Alexander schools, Inc., opened j Saturday evening with the readers | and delaimel-s' contest, in • which .fourteen boys and girls took part.'
