PLATE 11. ADVANCED CONDITIONS IN THE MILK INDUSTRY (continued) 



Cooling and Bottling. After pasteurization the milk is run over the Cooler, 

 F, which reduces it within 10 seconds to a temperature of 38 F. A dust- 

 less atmosphere is essential to the protection of milk which is run over 

 open coolers. It is also necessary that all apparatus and piping with which 

 milk comes in contact be capable of being thoroughly cleansed and ster- 

 ilized. After cooling, the milk passes to a vat, G, provided with me- 

 chanical agitation, and thence to the rotary fillers H H, by which the 

 bottles, previously sterilized, are mechanically filled and capped. This 

 type of filler permits ready inspection of bottles. Employees medically 

 examined weekly. (Courtesy of H. P. Hood and Sons, Boston.)
