114 THE DAIRYMAN 
by anyone who is sufficiently interested, to actually 
put into practice in an ordinary dairy the simple 
sanitary precautions previously outlined, that the 
figures can be accepted as not due in any way to 
accident or to any error of the laboratory but to 
correctly represent the facts. It is certainly true 
that a dairy farm producing milk containing 
millions of bacteria can in a single day at prac- 
tically no expense change its methods so that 
the milk produced at the next milking will contain 
less than 10,000 bacteria per cc. All of this is 
because the factor which exceeds all others put 
together in importance is the dairyman himself.
