okied IWLK INDUSTRY. IT is important that in view of the almost immediate inauguration of tho dried milk and condensed milk industries throughout New Zealand, that Farmers bear in 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 ot milking machines, rapidly deteriorates, wing to becoming what is known as "GASSED." and unsuitable for producing dried milk. The Manager of one of the largest dairying concerns in the North recently asked the opinion of the various creamery. Managers as to tho cause of so much bad milk during recent years, and was Informed unanimously that tho deteriorated and Inferior milk came from those suppliers who wero milking their cows with the releasor and bucket type of vacuum machines. At the conference of the Butter and Cheese Factory Managers of the Auckland province, held at the Farmers Freezing Coy.'s premises on October 4th, 1918 (see report In Auckland Herald, October sth, 1918) and attended by members of tho Government Grading Staff, Mr. C. J. Parlane, Chairman of the Executive presiding; the chief speakers were the Chairman, Mr. W. N. Singleton, assistant director ot the Dairy Division Dept. of Agriculture, and Mr. S J. Ambury, Chairman of Directors of the Farmers' Freezing Coy. It was explained that the purpose of the conference was to Impress upon those Interested In the 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 Is 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 uf Milk and Cream was said to be largely responsible for this state of things, as some of the factories rather than offend a supplier, and perhaps his friends, accepted milk and cream which had been "GASSED" and otherwise of Inferior quality, and It was felt that it 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 tho speaker having demonstrated the superior nutritive value of Butter said we hatj nothing to fear from competition with Margarine, and he firmly believed that we were going to have a very wide Held and a continuod good market for our Butter and Cheese, Hit urged that quality must be their main aim. The Farmers' Milking Machine is the only machine capable of milking the cows ai\d delivering the milk as pure as though the cows had been hand milked. The Farmers' Milking Machine has NO Vacuum Beleasor, 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 tbe air the whole time and (NOT under vacuum) taken any height is conveyed by gravitation into either the separator or into the cans on the milkstand 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 produce a perfect squeeze. Tho "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 Olio way or the other, of a relief valvo set alongside tho vacuum guage, one of whiii. fitted to each double bali. Very little power is required to operate the Farmers' Machine"—a 1% h.p. Euglne being sufficient to dnve a 4-cow plant and separator at the same time, and this means a substantial saving in tho cost of upkeep week in and week out. Tho 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 milkii.g, it does not in any way affect the cups on the cows milking in the other bails, a3 each unit works separately and independent of the other. Users of releaser type of plant will appreciate this feature, as, should a sot of cuds or the Vacuum releasor type of plant fall off, all the others do likewise. With "The Farmers' Milker in actual working (excep for test Ing) no milk is seen In the cowshed, but Is e'e llvered 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 nillk 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 strlpplnas are added the milk Is weighed and tested whilst at the same time the remaining cows' milk which la being milked in the 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 (everv part being accessible) than any other oxiattnir 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 mafhlnes. It Is supplied in 2-Cow, 3-Cow. 4Cow, 5-Cow, 6-Cow and 8-Cow plants, and a 2-Cow complete with Engine, Milking up to 20 cows an hour costs only £IOO cash or £lio terms.
