But by adding a reasonable amount of starter to such cream, the lactic acid bacteria will so far outnumber the others that a good flavor may be expected. In order to better understand how the addition of a good starter will increase the fighting force of lactic acid bacteria in cream, we have represented in the accom- panying illustration the relative number of good and bad bacteria present in a given sample of cream just before and just after the

Cream just before adding starter. Fig. B. Same cream just after adding 10 fo of starter. Fig. A represents a sample of cream rather below the average in quality, assumed to contain 6,000,000 bacteria per Two-thirds of these in this instance belong to the lactic acid group, which is represented by the circles. The other third of the bacteria belong to the taint pro- ducing group, which is represented by dots. What an insignificant chance taint-producing bacteria have to taint cream that has been treated with a good starter compared with their opportunity for mischief in the same cream, untreated!.
