Southern planter: devoted to practical and progressive agriculture, horticulture, trucking, live stock and the fireside . ich have cracked forthe lodgment of dirt and which arenot properly sterilized, mud holes fethe barn yard, impure water, beddnfgand feed, and from milkers or attend-ants who come into contact with acontagious disease. Milk producedunder average farm conditions dur-ing the winter months contains from40,000 to 700,000 bacteria per cubiccentimeter; while milk produced atthe Experiment Station barn (a mod-ern sanitary stable) over a period ofsix weeks contained an average ofonly about 2,700 bacteria per cubiccentimeter. In this stable about 50per cent, of the bacteria were elimin-ated when the straw bedding waswell moistened before milking. A re-duction of about 25 per cent, was se-cured when a small mouth pail wasused in milking, as compared with anopen pail.
