COMMEReiAL STARTERS IN BUTTER MAKING. 63 



should be used in handling the Startoline whether 

 it be in a large or a small creamery. Where large 

 quantities of Startoline are required use several 

 gallon jars with glass stoppers. 



83. Utensils which should not be used. China 

 ware should not be used because the glazed surface 

 cracks very easily and the vessel will absorb milk 

 which will create offensive odors and contaminate 

 the Startoline. Earthenware, such as crocks of any 

 type, should not be used as they are worse than 

 china ware. Either china or earthenware can be 

 used only for a short time, if necessary to use them 

 at all, and they must be thoroughly cleaned and 

 aerated before each time they are used. 



High grade enameled ware is very good and may 

 be classed next to glassware for use in the handling 

 of Startoline. Alumium utensils are now being 

 used in some creameries and promise to be among 

 the best utensils for handling Startoline. 



Utensils in the order of their usefulness : 



1. Glass. 2. Enameled ware.: 3. Aluminum ware. 

 4. High grade china. 5. Tinware. 6. Earthenware. 



84. Keep flies from the milk. We need hardly 

 mention what a nuisance flies are around creameries 

 and cheese factories, for this is well known. In 

 order that we may more fully comprehend the im- 

 portance of keeping the flies from falling into the 

 milk or getting at the same for refreshment, we 

 wish to call attention to some experiments carried 

 on by Prof. F. C. Harrison of Ontario Agricultural
