A tin milk-receiver, consisting of a hopper, to which is attached a pipe, is so placedâ the hopper being outside and the pipe passing through the wall, with its other end resting on the side of the cheese-tubâas to allow the milkers 31 to pour the contents of their pails into the tub without entering the dairy. In the curing-room are 'turning' shelves, which are easily moved either \\:iy, so that all the cheese stored on them may be turned with one motion, saving much time and labour in this de- partment of the work. This description of the dairy will, i'g- 'â »().âScrew-openinq we think, suffice. ' ' The evening's milk is poured l)y tlie milker through a fine strainer into the checse-tul). There is no previous cooling of the milk, though, doubt- less, where it is done much danger of souring is avoided during hot weather; but into the space A of the Cockey tub (Fig. 94) cold water is introduced, and the milk cooled down thoroughl}'. Mr. Harding fully recognised the necessity for a pure and sweet material from which to manu- facture his cheese. By reducing the temperature to 55° (13'), or lower during the summer, the preservation of the milk under fair conditions is secured; this can be done if a stream of water of a quarter of an inch diameter is available. Here let us say a word about the cream rising on the night's milk. This is, despite the opinions of some to the contrary, objectionable. Without going into the theory of the question, we may say that the cream of some specimens of milk rises faster than that from others, and is less easily stirred in again ; but while the difference between them on this account is marked, it is c
