After cows have been cleaned before milking it is desirable to prevent their lying down and becoming soiled. A cow kneels on the fore legs before lying down, and a light chain passed under the throat and affixed to the stanchion will pre- vent her doing so. Shape of milk paiU Bacteriological examinations of the foregoing nature have suggested modifications in the shape of the milk pail to minimize the contamination. The changes have been along the line of reducing the area of the opening down to the minimum size that may be used without seriously inconveniencing the milker. Fig. 2 shows a desirable t\-])e of milk pail. When the pail is in use, the hood is kept up- permost, and since a pail is held at an angle to the floor, between the milker's knees, the hood prcx-ents the vertical exposure of the opening. Cov- ered pails with an aperture, containing a cheesecloth or a wire gauze strainer, are infer- ior to the pail with the small open area protected by a hood. Such a pail offers a greater area open to contamination, and the strainer does not con- stitute a barrier to the entrance of bacteria. Nevertheless the covered pail with cheesecloth strainer is VL-r>- convenient for the milker and is a great im- provement over the common open pail. Such a pail will exclude 29 per cent, of the total bacteria and 41 per cent, of lactic acid organisms as compared with the ordinary open pail in a cleanlv dairy. In an extremely dirty dairy the same pail. Pearson's milk pail Digitized by Microsoft®.
