THE MORNING MILK.
QUESTION OF QUALITY
In thn annual-report of (Ho Cumberland and Westmorland Farm School (England) there, is an. instructive note on tho difference- in finality between tho evening nml- morning inilk when a long interval of time occurs betviecn the evening and morniii? milkinp. A number of samples were tested- for. butter-fat from sellers in nil parts of Hie two' countries, and a considerable proportion of them showed less than the legal minimum of 3 per. cent, of l)!itter-fat". On iiifjtiiry it was found that these poor samples had-been-practically all taken from morning's milk, where the interval between morning and evening milking was sliort, and that between evening' and morning milking long—e.g., milking at t> a.m. Mid 3 p.m. The invariable result of such a practice is a large quantity of poor milk in the morning, and a smnlinr quantity of rich 'milk in the afternoon. . ,
