CLEAN MILK

Of all food products (says 1. 0. Weld in the "New England Farmer") milk: is the most important and desirable. It ib a compete food. The human race never lias existed and never can exist without it. Milk' lias no substitutes. Tho demands of the people for-goad milk are becoming move and more persistent. Milk that was acceptable live, three, and . even two years go is now condemned. The world moves, aud in its demand for better food products it is but natural that the milk supply should receive wrne attention. Cuttlo aro no longer kept under, natural ' conditions, All animals in their.natural conditions aro clean, but cattle can no ' longer be dean unices their yards aro i 'kept clean. We keep cows for the purpose of producing nil unwashed, an uncooked'tood, The old-fashioned dairymen gather this feed in open buckets : held under the cow's body. The up-to-date fellow who wants clean milk, keeps his cows clean, and catches his milk in i an improved covered bucket. He uses a i heavy cotton strainer over tho top of tho I i bucket, and keeps out the dirt and most ; of the bacteria. A Such milk is cleaner. It will take bet-: I tor and keep longer, it will make' betI ter cream- and high-priced butter, It' i will sell for a little higher price than or- : diuary milk. Liwt, but not least, it is | mora healthful in every way. i
