Clean Milk 



must be uncontaminated, and this precau- 

 tion no dairy farmer can afford to neglect, 

 as the lesson of typhoid epidemics ascribed 

 to milk plainly teaches. In most of the 

 cases the infection was traced back and 

 definitely fixed on the wash water. In the 

 event of typhoid in his own household, the 

 farmer should send no milk to market. 



The storage of utensils is very often done 

 haphazardly and without any thought 

 toward keeping them clean. They should 

 not be kept in the barn or cow yard, where 

 dirt is being blown about, and where they 

 are knocked around or offer a chance for 

 small animals to get in. A proper place is 

 the dairy, the spring house, or the vat room, 

 where they can be shielded from dust. 



The custom of sun exposure practically 

 amounts to a snare and a delusion as it is 

 rarely performed in a proper manner. 

 Usually only the exterior receives the bene- 

 fit of the exposure, as the utensils are placed 

 bottom upward and the sun's rays cannot 

 reach the interior.
