252 DAIRY Ti:CHNOLOGY 



4. By the use of coolers milk can be reduced immediately 

 to within a few degrees of the temperature of the water 

 used. Milk higher than 65° F. will not be accepted at 

 the factory. 



5. Tin pails only are to be used to milk in, and they must 

 be thoroughly washed and scalded every time they are 

 used, and allowed to dry in the open air, in the sun if pos- 

 sible, and must not be used for any other purpose. 



6. The night's and morning's milk shall not be mixed, 

 and no milk shall be kept over to be delivered at a sub- 

 sequent time. 



7. The evening's milk must be kept at or below a tem- 

 perature of 55° F., and out of contact with dirt or bad odors. 



8. When the cans in which the milk is transported to 

 the factory are not in use, they shall be turned down on a 

 rack with the covers off, except only when in transit. 



9. All milk, including the strippings, shall be delivered. 

 No milk shall be delivered which is taken from cows that 

 have calved within twelve days, nor from any cow that is 

 to calve within thirty days. 



10. If there is good reason to suspect that water has 

 been added, or cream removed, or that milk has not been 

 properly cooled, or that it has been injured by carelessness 

 or from filth, or if the cans are filthy, such milk will be 

 refused. 



1 1 . Cows must not be allowed to eat sour, noxious grasses 

 and weeds, or other objectionable food. No still or brewers' 

 grains, or slops, sorghum or glucose refuse, cabbages, 

 ensilage or other damaged or decayed food of any kind 

 shall be fed under any circumstances, and sugar beets, tur- 

 hips and red carrots only in small quantities and soon after 

 milking. 



12. Stables and sheds where cows are kept must be clean 

 and free from foul odors. 



13. Our inspector shall have the right to visit the prem- 

 ises of our patrons at any time, and all suggestions made 

 by him must be carefully carried out. 



14. We shall refuse milk from anyone violating these 

 rules."
