"With increa ing rentals and vrl-,
ues of farm lands, dairy farming
rapidly replacing other types of
live stock farming. A dairy cow
producing 8,000 pounds of milk a
year furnishes 1,000 pounds of dry
matter, all of which is edible and
digestible, A two year old steer
weighing between 1,200 and 1,300
pound-} furnishes about 550 pounds
of dry matter, not all of which can
be used for food. In other words a
fairly good producing dairy cow
furnishes twlco as much cdiblo dry
matter in ono year as a good two
year eld. steer when he i3 killed for
meat. A cow can. bo kept for addi
tional years cf service, whilo to re
Pl aco the steer, another animal
mvit fee fed for a period of t v/o
years.
Tho United States consumption of J
milk per capita, has increased from
42 gallon:? cf whole milk in l'Jlb
to moro than C i gallons in 1925,
With growing acceptance ef milk
as a food ha3 come an increasing
knowledge of the proper care of
miilc on tho farm. Because odors
from foods and animate in the cow
?table are easily taken up by iriilk,
injuring its flavor, they must not
come ill contact with tho milk. Re
moval of tho milk frorr the stable
a3 soon as possible reduces the
amount of dust and dirt entering it
and keeps down the bacterial growth
in the milk.
Bacteria increase rapidly in warm
milk causing it to sour quickly. Re
moval of tho animal heat from
freshly drawn milk by lowering tho
temperature to that of cold well
water (approximately C0? F.).
greatly aids in preventing bacterial
growth. A well lighted, well venti
lated milk house, not too close to
the stable, is also very helpful.
Cleanliness in tho stable is vitally
necessary. The stall pl.aform should
be just long enough for the i:?v/ to
stand comfortably without room to
spare; otherwise, the cow will be
come dirty from droppings when
she lies down. The gutter should

ho wide and deep. A good gutter Is
16 inches to 18 inches in width and
? or 10 inches below tho platform.
Bedding should be clean and plen
teous.
Long hair on the flanks, udders
and tail above the switch of tho
dairy cow should be removed at
regular intervals. Removing this
long hair removes the clinging places
of dirt which otherwise will fall into
tho milk ]> il in quantities. Keeping
tho hair short on thc.se parts of tho
cow permits cleaning in much less
tir.io and moro thoroughly. Brush
ing should never bo neglected. It
removes looso particles sticking to
tho body. When the hair is short,
v.iping the udders with a damp cloth
ju.*:t beforo milking, is an easy and
important r.id in securing clean milk.
It is generally rccognhsed that
most of the bacteria found in milk
finds it3 source in dirt clinging to
the cow ar<l dropping into the pail
during milking time. Simple pre
cautions will practically eliminato
this source of bacterial growth and
dairymen find themselves well re
paid for tho little timo necessary in
taking such precautions.
