Examine in this way all the culturesisolated in No. 14, and sketch. *No. 16. Comparison of Yeast and Bacteria. Rub up in awatch glass a bit of a cake of yeast with a little water. Placea drop of the liquid on a slide and examine directly with themicroscope, using a i/6-inch objective. Dry a little of thematerial on a slide and stain exactly as in staining bacteria(No. 15). Study with the immersion lens, comparing the yeast LABORATORY WORK IN DAIRY BACTERIOLOGY 285 cells as to size and shape with bacteria already studied. Huntfor cells showing budding. If these are not found they may beobtained in quantity by planting a little yeast in a weak solutionof molasses in water and allowing to grow for a few hours in.

Direct Microscopic Study of Milk. For this acentrifuge is needed, having tubes with straight sides, and closedat the bottom with a rubber cork. (Fig. 81.) Place 2 ofthe samples of milk to be tested, after thorough shaking, in thetubes. It is necessary to fill enough tubes with milk from dif- 286 PRACTICAL DAIRY BACTERIOLOGY ferent samples, to balance the centrifugal machine on both in the machine at a rate of 2,000 to 3,000 per minute,for 5 minutes. Remove the tubes from the machine and theywill be found to have a layer of cream at one end, and a smallslimy deposit at the other end next the cork. Holding the tubewith the cream end down, r
