iew.

The membership in Prince Id- ward Island was 1086 and the num- ber of clubs 125. The project with me greatest number oi clubs was clothing. This year it is expected that the membe bip win again in- CFEEIC. '

In each project with over five clubs, teams are selected for a tree- mp to the Royal Winter Fair at Toronto. neliminary trials for the call clubs were held August 8th with the final trial ” d 1-H for the last or this month. The teams m the poultry, clothing and garden projects will be chosen September 17 at the Royal Youth Fair.

The Royal Youth Fair is the itnale of the club year for most. Hera will be displayed the best tnree calves. the best puliets and cockerels, the best sewing, the best vegetlblel and the best grain from the various clubs. It is held every year at the Provincial Exhibition grounds. A grant is re- ceived from the Canada Depart- ment. or Agriculture through the Exhibition Association for the carrying on of this Fair.

4-H Club Work is specifically (or rural young people. It is a program that places personal re- sponsibility upon asele boy or girl taking part. It is compulsory for each member to raise. manage or complete at least one project each year. This projects is centered at the members home. Thus. through his or her project the club member learns the value of improved methods and materials and can ” t -i- their ' in that most important center oi this life-his home. .

The project may be in Agricul- ture or Home Economics. In either

case "Learning to do by Doing" is l"

the basic principle involved. All the projects are of a practical nature and serve to illustrate improve- ments in farming and in homemak- lng as recommended by the super- vising extension staff.

The improperly cleaned milking

pail is a great source of milk con-

tamination. What holds true at the milking pail is the same with every other container with which the milk comes in contact. such as the seperator, the filter and the cans. Indeed the state of utensils appears to be the most important factor enacting the germ content of milk. Under clean milking con- ditions, any change from a care- ful method oi cleaning pails to a neglected method results ,in a greater increase in germ content than the neglect of any other single precaution. A pail may look clean to the eye, but may not be bacteriologlcally clean, that is. it may contain a large nuinberroi living bacteria because of not hav- ing received a sterilizing treatment to destroy these bacteria.

PAIL! ls OTHER UTENBILB

The proper method of treating utensils consists first in rinsing in luke warm water immediately after using. before traces of milk have had a chance to dry on. then wash- ing in warm water to which a little dairy washing soda hasnbecn added. A brush should be used in- stead of a cloth. Then they should be rinsed with hot water to remove traces or cleaning solution, and finally.stcrilized with boiling water for at least two minutes. A cloth should not be used to dry the utensils alter sterilizing because it will only add germs to the sur- face. If placed inverted on a rack they will dry quickly.

Utensils are difficult to clean it poorly constructed. having crevices. joints. seams, dents and cracks where traces of milk can lodge. The inside of the pails and cans should be smooth. well tinned pails. stain- less steel or aluminum should be used for milk.

STBAINING OF MILK

A well-tinned strainer of adequate size should be used. It should be free from cracks and crevices. The most desirable type is the kind which utilizes a single-service cot- ton filter pad. Cloths are unsat- isfactory for straining. They are difficult to clean. Don't use them.

200 pounds oi milk have been strained. remove the pad and place it in a waste receptacle. Rinse the strainer by mcans of tap wat- er and insert a new cotton pad, using clean, dry fingers. or pick up the pad with the moist metal stnalner disc. Using single-service cotton filtering material in the top perforated tray of a surface cooler is also unsatisfactory. Strainers should never be bounced as this breaks the filter disc. When strain- ing is slow, replace filter. Purpose of straining: straining removes only coarse dirt particles and such extraneous material as hair and small bits of straw. Dirty milk, even after straining. does not become clean milk, some fine dirt remains in the milk. Bacteria can- not be removed by straining. There- fore, it is imperative to keep the dirt out of the milk. The regular meeting of the Cor- nation 4-H Cali Club was held at Earl Macnae on August 30th with sixteen members present.
