Testing Sterilized Milk 
Can you inform me ns to the testing of 
sterilized milk by the Babcock test? Will 
it show the cream test ;is well as raw 
milk? h. M. t. 
The ordinary Babcock test for fat has 
to be modified when one wishes to de¬ 
termine I he fat content of so-called “ster¬ 
ilized milks.” These modifications tire to 
meet the abnormal conditions due to 
concentration of the milk constituents 
and clue to the addition of cane sugar iu 
the case of sweetened condensed milk. 
The fat particles in evaporated milk and 
in condensed milk are liable to separate 
from the milk and make it difficult to get 
a representative sample. With care these 
milks can be tested with fairly satisfac¬ 
tory results by noting the following direc¬ 
tions : 
In testing unsweetened evaporated milk 
the sample is mixed by shaking, pouring 
and stirring. Examine the surface close¬ 
ly and, if fat particles are observed, -warm 
the mixture to 100 degrees Falir. and 
again mix. 
Fat Test.—Weigh 9 grams of the sam¬ 
ple mixed as above into a Babcock milk- 
test. bottle. Add 9 c.e. of water and 
shake to mix thoroughly. Add about 
17.5 e.c of sulphuric acid. Mix thor¬ 
oughly. then add about 2 c.e. more of 
the acid and shake vigorously for two or 
three minutes. Complete the test as for 
whole milk. The fat reading, multiplied 
by two, gives the per cent. 
Method of Testing Sweetened Con¬ 
densed Milks for Per Cent of Fat.—Mix 
thoroughly by transferring the contents 
of the can into a convenient dish and 
stirring until homogeneous. Weigh out 
40 grams and wash it into a 100 e.c. 
flask and make up to the mark with wa¬ 
ter. or the 40 grains may be weighed di¬ 
rectly into the flask before making up to 
the 100 e.e. mark. 
Place 15 c.e. of this 10 per cent solu¬ 
tion in a Babcock milk test bottle. Fill 
the bottle nearly to the neck with water, 
add 4 e.c. of Folding's solution, shake 
thoroughly and rapidly. cCutrifuge, pre¬ 
ferably iu a cold machine. The casein 
and fat are thrown to the bottom. With¬ 
draw the supernatant liquid by means 
of small-stemmed pipette with a wisp of 
wet absorbent cotton twisted over the 
tip to serve as a filter. Wipe off the. co - 
ton into the buttle on withdrawing the 
pipette. Give the precipitated proteids 
and fat two additional washings by shak¬ 
ing up with water, again centrifuging, 
and removing the water each time with 
the pipette. If the precipitate is caked 
hard after centrifuging, it must be 
broken up by using a line wire stirrer.

The extension 
roof idea for silos was 
first introduced by Globe Silo 
Company. The Globe roof is the 
only one with sides so nearly 
straight that silage settles level. 
This permits the owner of a Globe 
to always have full capacity—no 
heaped up silage exposed to the air.

prices. Write today for catalog de¬

overcomes the objections to fly sprays made of crude carbolic 
acid, or creosote. It will not taint the milk. 
Bob White will keep your cows free from flies. It will also 
knock dead every fly it hits. We guarantee it to kill flies, not 
merely to drive them away. 
Bob White will not blister the cow or stain or mat the hair.

Trouble with Churning 
I am having trouble with churning. I 
have four cows, very good ami rich Jer¬ 
seys. When I churn the buttermilk is 
rich, like cream, so yesterday I put it 
back in the chunt after I took the butter 
off, and got 3 lbs. more butter from' the 
buttermilk. The first lime I got !> lbs., 
then I got 3 lbs. more off -the buttermilk. 
1 had about four gallons of cream in the 
first place: churned it in eight-gallon 
churn. I have separator, so that the 
water and milk goes together: have used 
that kind 15 years, and when I separate 
the milk it seems so much cream comes 
on it when it stand for a while.

Your difficulty lies iu the fact that your 
method of creaming is not efficient. You 
are liable to lose considerable fat by the 
dilution method of creaming. The deep 
setting type of creaming is more effi¬ 
cient. This type includes the use of a 
long shotgun can in which the milk is 
placed. No water is put into the milk, 
but the can of milk is set into a vat or 
container of cold water. Of course the 
machine type of separation is most effi¬ 
cient. but the deep setting type is the 
most efficient of any of the old gravity 
methods of creaming. 
The fact that you do not get complete 
churning at one time is due to the fact 
that you are mixing fresh cream with old 
cream. As a result the older and sourer 
cream churns out before the fresher 
cream does. To overcome Ibis difficulty 
I would recommend the following steps 
in caring for your cream : 
1. T><» not mix warm and cold cream. 
2. Use two cream cans. The morning 
cream can he emptied that same evening 
into the cream previously saved and tin- 
can used for the evening’s warm cream. 
3. The mixed and cool cream should lie 
kept at as low a temperature as possible 
from 12 to IS hours before churning. 
4. It should then be thoroughly stirred 
ami brought to a temperature of about 
70 degrees F. 
5. The cream should he held at 70 de¬ 
grees F. for 12 to 18 hours and stirred 
two or three times during this period. 
0. To give tin- butter the required firm¬ 
ness the cream should he cooled down to 
churning temperature (52 to 58 degrees 
F.*) for at. least two hours before churn¬ 
ing. ,T. w. B.
