DRIED MILK INDUSTRY. IT is important that in of the almost immediate inauguration of the dried milk and condensed milk induatrlea throughout New Zealand, that Farmers bear lu mind that only absolutely pure fresh milk is suitable for these purposes. Milk that has been subjected to vacuum, cither through the releasor, or bucket type of milking machines, rupidly deteriorates, wing to becoming what is known as "GASSED." and unsuitable lor producing dried milk. The Manager of one of the largest dairying concorns in tbo North recently asked the opinion of the various creamery Managers as to the cause of so much bad milk during recent years, and was informed unanimously that the deteriorated and inferior milk came t'rom those suppliers who wero milking their cows with the releasor and bucket type of vacuum machines.

At the conference of tho Butter and Cheese Factory managers of the Auckland province, held at the farmers Freezing Coy.'s premises on October 4th, 11)18 (see report In Auckland Herald, October sth, 1918) and attended by members of the Government Grading Staff, Mr. C. J. Parlune, Chairman of the Executive presiding; the chief speakers were the ChMrman, Mr, W. N. Singleton, assistant director of tho Dairy Division Dept. of Agriculture, and Mr. S J. Ambury, Chairman of Directors of the Farmers' Freezing Coy. It was explained tbat the purpose of the conference was to impress upon those Interested in tho manufacture of Butter and Cheese, the need of improvement in quality. The opinion was generally expressed that despite the fact that the Factories are equipped with the latest and most modern appliances, and the manufacture is carried out on the most scientific lines known, the quality of the Butter and Cheese now being turned out in the Province 1b not equal to that ruling a few years ago before the advent of the releaser and bucket type of Vacuum Milking machines. The competition between the Dairy Factories for the supply of Milk and Cream was said to bo largely responsible for this stale of things, as some of the factories rather than otTend a supplier, and perhaps his friends, accepted mlik and cream which had been "GASSED" and otherwise of inferior quality, and it was felt that if this competition could be eliminated by amalgamation of the various concerns, they would then be in a position to refuse to receive "GASSED" and inferior milk and cream from suppliers, and a marked Improvement in Butter and Cheese would result. Mr. Singleton referred to the Margarine Industry, and the speaker having demonstrated the superior nutritive value . of Butter said we had nothing to fear from competition with Margarine, and ho firmly believed that we were going to have a very wide field and a continued good market for our Butter and Cheese, Lut urged that quality must be their main aim.

Tho Farmers' Milking Machine Is the only machine capable of milking the cows and delivering the milk as pure as though the cows had been hand milked. The Farmers' Milking Machine has NO Vacuum Releasor, Vacuum Tank, Vacuum Pump, and NO long lines of Vacuum Pipes and Vacuum Buckets, but delivers the milk from the cows' teats pure, fresh and sweet. The milk being in the air the whole time and (NOT under vacuum) taken any height is conveyed by gravitation Into either tho separator or Into the cans oa the mllltstand any distance from the shed. The only purpose for which vacuum is used with "The Farmers' Machine" is between the Inflation and the wall of the cups to produco a perfect squeeze. The "Farmers'" Is the only machine that allows of alteration In the squeeze in milking, so that an easy cow and a tough cow, side by side in the bails, can be given whatever squeeze is desired by simply a half turn one way or the other, of a relief valve set alongside the vacuum guage, one of which fitted to each double ball. Very little power is required to operate the "Farmers' Machine"—a h.p. Engine being sufficient to drive a 4-cow plant and separator at the same time, and this means a substantia] saving in the cost of upkeep week In and week out. The cups adapt themselves to any sized teat and do not fall off. Another great advantage with the "Farmers" is that should a fractious cow kick her cups off during milklLg, it does not In any way affect the cups on the cows milking In the other balls, as each unit works separately and Independent of the other. Users of releasor type of plant will appreciate this feature, as, should a set of cups or the Vacuum releasor type of plant fall ofT, all the others do likewise. With "The Farmers' Milker" In actual working (except for testing) no milk is seen In the cowshed, but Is delivered by the machine to the separator or factory cans. The "Farmers'" plant is the only plant that allows of Individual testing of cows without hand milking. Should the farmer wish to test any particular cow or cows, the vertical pipe (one from each unit) up which the milk Is forced to the gravitation conveyer pipe is instantly disconnected, and a bent pipe fitted in its place, and the cow milked Into an open bucket or kerosene tin, and after the shippings are added the milk is weighed and tested, whilst at the same time the remaining cows' milk which is being milked iz) tho other bails is delivered Into the separator or cans on the stand. The "Farmers' " is the simplest, most efficient and sanitary machine on the market, and can be cleaned much easier and quicker (every part being accessible) than any other existing type of milking machines. It has been in practical use for six years, and it has proved Itself to be the most scientific production in milking machines. It is supplied in 2-Cow, 3-Cow, 4Cow, 5-Cow, G-Cow and 8-Cow plants, and a 2-Cow complete with Engine, Milking up to 20 cows an hour costs only £IOO cash or £llO terms.
