. Dairy farming. Dairying. CHAPTER XXVII. MARKETING MILK AND CREAM RETAILING. Dip Method. The old method of hauHng milk to the city in five, eight or ten gallon cans and removing each patron's allowance by means of a dipper or faucet, has been found so objectionable that the practice has been largely abandoned. The principal objections to this method are: (i) The admission of dust and bacteria to the milk while measuring it; (2) the use of unsteri- lized milk vessels by consumers; (3) exposure of the vessels to dust while on the steps of the consumer; (4) the use of unclean vessels by milkmen
