174 BETTER DAIRY FARMING 



288. Milk must be uniform in quality. — The milk must be 

 the same in quality every day. This is not hard if it is watched at 

 all points. Two fundamental things are true. The milk is clean 

 in the udder and it will keep clean if the dirt is kept out and the 

 milk is kept cold. Keep the dirt out, as it cannot be strained 

 out if once it gets in, and cool the milk at once and keep it cold. 

 If this is done with clean utensils the bacteria count will be low. 



289. Advertise. — When you once know that you have a clean, 

 uniform product, advertise that milk at a good price and you will 

 get the trade. Invite the doctors, teachers, ministers, and mothers 

 to visit your farm and show that you have a clean place, clean 

 cows, clean helpand clean milk. They will all tell their neigh- 

 bors. Not all of us can have a special market, but more can 

 have one than have one now by just knowing the meaning of 

 the word " clean."
