Tho chief benefit from aeration, to my mind, is the opportunity that is given for any bac] flavors, arising from urdesirablo feed, or Indigestion ore the part of the cow, to pass away. There Is also a certain amount of cooling which is advan- tageous. The cooling of milk I consider to be the most important point. Tho advantage of cooling is that it pre- vents the growth of bacteria or or- ganisms which are apt to develop bad Ilavors in the milk. 'There are two u \v a H 1 of , wobu milk, by the maximum of exposure to the air. and the other is by the mini- mum of exposure to the air.

The disadvantages are, first, that you cruet have water elevated or under pressure in order to use the ordinnry cooler, and a great many farmers have not such a water sup- ply. The second disadvantage is the labor of lifting the milk up to the cooler and of washing the cooler afterward. I feel free to say that the majority of farmers will not ur tdcr g I;o the Inbor lo do this work properly. Where it is so difficult under our conditions, i think it would be almost impossible under the conditions of the ordinary farm, because there would be too mueh work.

The old custom of showing birds in pairs, trios, etc., is an in- justice to both exhibitor and exhibit- ed. sludges in those cases generally favor the male bird; in fact, some hardly look at the female, so a real- ly grand hen shown with an indiffer- ent male is hardly noticed, on ac- count. o nt of the inferior male, while if she had her due and single classifi- cation prevailed she would win the blue. sly single entries we mean to have a class each for the cocks, COC krelA hens and pullets O P f ca standard variety.
