Dairy Products Must He Kipt Cool A Variety of 1'lans for HnmllliiK !< Good Drainage In tin- Ice House Necessary. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture. Toronto.) It is a very rare occurrence in Ontario that the wSn'.pr woatluT la not cold enough to inako plenty of ice on our lakes, rivrs, small streams, and pondu. We can, there- fore, feel pretty sure of a good crop of ice this winter. Ice is the only ether means of cooling on farms, except in the case of very large dairies where the use of a mechanical system may be war- ranted. The one chief obstacle to proper cooling of milk and cream by ice that .many farmers meet is the lack of a convenient supply in their Immediate vicinities. This may not be an insurmountable difficulty, how- ever, as there is always the possibil- ity of ice being shipped In during the winter and stored for use in the summer. Dairy Products Must lie Kept Cool. If the quality of our dairy products in ever to become supreme in the world it will be necessary for the producers of milk to pet the natural heat out of tho milk as quickly as possible; after it is abstracted from the cows. This will mean more effi- cient methods of cooling than most farmers have to-day. Thon would ice be required by all dairy farmers, and they would have to secure it either from nearby bodies of water, if pres- ent, or through soin^ sui.able organ- ization shipping It in as referred to before. The superior article selling at bettor prices would likely pay the producers to ship in ice if it \v. : necessary. Many farmers now IKXVO a household refrigerator or small cold storage plant for keeping the daily food for the table pure, sweet, and frosh, and never fail to store io" for this purpose alone whether need- ed for other purposes or not. They llnd by experience that this practice is worth while. If much milk Is pro- duced on the farm, BO much greater tho need for storing some ice. The Problem Desei'ves Consideration. Tho problem of storage should ! considered carefully and plans decid- ed upon well in advance of the luir- vestinf: of the ice, as it may bo n. r > makP repairs to the i storai,"' I'.msr, -or a now one luay l/e needed.

Note care- fully what they are: Protection frcm sun's rays, jilenty of some material a poor conductor of hoat about the ice on all Bides, top and bottom, good circulation of air over the ice bin. I.e., between the top of the ice and any roof that may be above It. In other words religiously avoid the closed attic or loft condition in hot weather because, stagnant air under a closed roof becomes very hot, and so heat will naturally pan.s down through tho covering over the Ice and mi-it it very fast. <ood I : m. i n Necessity. Another condition is good drain- ago, either natural oi 1 artificial, un- der the ice pit, an waior backing up or failing to get away rapidly from tho Ice melts It quickly. Another, air should he kept from potting in at the bottom. Still another, cakes of ico should bo. packed In the houe on a cold frosty day and no sawdust should be put between them, only around tho outsldes next the w.ills, but small openings between cakes should bo tilled as well as possible with dry snow or fine pieces of Ice. The Ida of this Is to gut rid of the air spaces and st'cure as far as pos- sible a solid block condition ol die Ice. Do not freeze blocks together with water. Whenever any ice is rc- hiiivfd durJiiK tlifi summer dry saw- dust, or whatever covering in used should he at once put back over the i.- If theso conditions are woll pro- vided fur there will ho very little loss Ice liy moliagi! within the bin or i~ I' 1 HI! :.M' i-,...|'(. elaborate ami e .
