Sometimes the milk is cooled by placing these vases and also the pails, which are made of tin in this case, in cold water, but =â â stables, neatly built of brick nnd cemented. If underground they are supplied with covers to prevent dust or dirt falling into the milk. The annexed engraving (Fig. 357) shows the method of cooling in a well, which is only used in summer, when the milk cannot be sufhciently cooled in the ojjen troughs.
