When a dairy farmer takes his milk to tho factory in a thoroughly fresh, pro-' perly cooled condition, ho gets the best test and tho highest price. The very opposite is the lot of tho .farmer whose milk has deteriorated through being allowed to cool by itself. Marlon's Milk Coolprs enable fanners to cool tho milk immediately it comes from tho cows, and milk thus cooled still retains its freshness on arrival at tho factory. All ert J.
