Bulletin 66. 

 Table III — De L.^.vai<, Alpha No. i. 



It will be noticed that on scared}^ an3' occasion was this machine 

 run to its full capacity. This was not due to inabilit)- to u:et the 

 inilk through the machine but largely to the shortness of the runs. 

 It will be noticed in referring to the table that on the occasions 

 where 1 800-1 900 pounds of milk were run through, there was no 

 more fat in the skim milk than when a less amount was run. In 

 the four highest runs the average amount of milk separated per 

 hour was 1800 pounds with .11 of i per cent, of fat in the skim 

 milk. In the four smallest runs the amount of milk separated 

 per hour was 1150 pounds, with also .11 of i per cent, of fat in 

 the skim milk. This machine ran with an intermediate and rope 

 belt and no difficulty was found in maintaining the speed uniformly, 

 as was the case with the other machines operated in the same 

 way, the Columbia and the Accumulator. The character of the 

 cream as to density and consistency was also all that could be 

 desired.
