Tank for Cooling Milk 
What kind of milk-cooling tank do you 
think is best? I have a concrete tank 
in my milkhouse; it will not. cool the 
milk down to 50 deg. I am delivering 
milk to a station. Could I improve this 
tank by putting matched hoards inside, 
or would it he better to have a galvanized 
tin tank made and put it in a wooden 
box? It. s. 
You do not say whether ice or water 
alone is used for cooling. If water alone 
is used, it will be impossible to get the 
low temperature. However, the material 
from which your cooling tank is made is 
uot at fault, as a concrete tank sunk in 
the milk room floor makes one of the host 
cooling tanks obtainable. 
'Make sure that the water is deep 
enough in the tank to come well up on 
the can, so that it reaches to or above 
the milk line on the inside of the can. 
As a second precaution, use plenty of 
ice, well broken up. so that a greater 
surface is exposed to the water for cool¬ 
ing. If this does not cool the milk, add 
salt to the water in the tank, making a 
brine, into which the ice is placed. This 
will cause the Ice to melt faster, and as 
ice in melting absorbs or uses great quan¬ 
tities of heat, the brine and the milk con¬ 
tained in it will be cooled, as the heat 
will bo taken from them. The addition 
of a cover to your tank, if it does not 
already have one. w ill serve to keep out 
the outside heat. If these directions are 
followed, it is likely that you will have ito 
more cooling troubles. The quantity of 
ice may be increased gradually until suf¬ 
ficient to cool the milk is determined, 
after which this quantify can he used.

Diameter of Pulley to Run Separator 
It is desired to drive a separator hav¬ 
ing a 12-iu. pulley by motor having u 
4-in. pulley, and the speed is 550 r.p.ra. 
The separator cannot he driven direct 
from the motor, and a line shaft must be 
used. What size pulleys must the line 
shaft have to drive the separator from 
45 to 50 r.p.m.? w. e. f. 
McDonough, N. Y. 
In the case mentioned, belting from the 
4-in. motor pulley running at 550 r. p.m. 
to the I6-in. pulley on the line shaft will 
give the line shaft a speed of 157.5 r.p.m. 
A 4-iu. pulley placed on the line shaft 
running at this speed and belted to the 
12-in. pulley on the separator will give 
the separator a speed of nearly 46 r. p.m.. 
Which is about the speed desired. 
The speed of a driven pulley can be 
found by multiplying the diameter of the 
driving pulley by the revolutions made 
per minute by it. and dividing' this pro¬ 
duct by the diameter of the driven pulley. 
In the same wav the diameter required co 
give a certain speed under certain condi¬ 
tions can be found by multiplying the di¬ 
ameter and speed of driving pulley to¬ 
gether and dividing this product by the 
required speed of the driven. The pro¬ 
duct obtained by multiplying the speed 
and diameter of the driver will always 
equal the product obtained by multiplying 
together the speed and diameter of the 
driven and when one of these four factors 
is missing it can be found by multiplying 
one couple together and dividing by the 
known factor (speed or diameter ) of the 
other couple. R, H. 8. 
Improving a Dairy Ration 
We are feeding a herd of purebred 
Holstein cows a mixture of rations as 
follows: Four bushels ground oats, four 
bushels cornmeal, one bushel cottonseed 
meal, one bushel oilmen!: not bushels by 
weight, hut by hulk. In addition, we 
are feeding Alfalfa bay and about 55 lbs. 
of silage per day, and once a day we are 
feeding SJiredded corn fodder sprinkled 
with n little diluted molasses, The quan¬ 
tity of grain mixture which we feed 
varies from eight to 12 quarts per head 
per day. according to the amount of milk 
which the cows are giving . Have you 
any suggestions to make in regard to the 
above? H. O. 
Tr would spern to me that the ration 
you are using would lack materially in 
bulk, and that it would scarcely be 
palatable. I should add n bushel 
of bran and a bushel of either corn 
distillers' or brewers’ grains to this 
combination. I am assuming that you 
are using 45 per cent cottonseed meal. 
Since you have an abundance of Alfalfa 
hay it might he economy for you to sub¬ 
stitute gluten feed for this oilmeal. since 
the latter is so expensive on the present 
day market. There is something about 
distillers’ and brewers' grains that seems 
to induce more complete regurgitation 
and thus aids digestion. While I am 
mindful of the suggestion that where 
Alfalfa is available it is possible to do 
without bran. I am always partial to this 
product and feel that a breeding herd 
should be always supplied with a rea¬ 
sonable amount of this cereal feed.

Preventing Iron Posts from Rusting 
All the farmers who use iron fence 
posts and have tractors should use their 
worn-out oil in the way here described: 
Dig a little place around the post and 
pour in about a quart of oil. It will 
preserve the posts and keep them from 
rusting on top of the ground, w. w. w.
