. About the farm;. Valley View farm, New Boston, N. H. [from old catalog]. HE CREAMERY is quite detached from the other buildings, and stands in a Httle park of ehns, shrubs, and grass on the bank of tlie Piscataquog River. The interior is entirely of concrete, white glazed tile, and iron. An expert dairyman with trained assistants is in charge of the Creamery. The utmost cleanliness is required from every one. All wear spotless white suits, which they put on daily before be- ginning their work. Upon arrival at the Creamery the milk is at once car- ried into the receiving-room, whence it is poured into the mixing vats that mingle the different cows' milk, so as to produce a uniform grade of milk. There are three vats, one for the milk from which the cream is to be separated. These vats are in an enclosed room made of white glazed tile. The milk is poured into the vats through a spout which goes through the wall. Before mixing, however, a sample of each delivery of milk is taken, and this sample is tested for the amount of butter fat it contains. From its mixing vat the milk from the Guernsey cows runs to a special cooler, and is immediately bottled. Thecoolerand bottling machine is in a room below the mixing vats. This room is also made of white glazed tile. The milk does not have to be handled by any one except to pour it into the vats, and, as the milk-rooms are enclosed and kept per- fectly clean, there is no possibility of any impurity reach- ing the milk after it comes to the Creamery.
