The Brussels Post, 1938-7-6, Page 7THE BR'USS'ELS !GST WEDNESDAY, MY 6t#, 198 ''s`/ "Rotolator" With Bath For Cows (13y iwsTICUS) .After Milking the cows on ono of thes'e first hot Summer days, when the first hies are malting the ,sows restless, we are naturally .somewhat interested In reading the description or .the gigantic dairy exhibit the Borden Mills Co. is planning to have at ,the Worldes Pair :in New .Rork a year from Crow. The Harden Company has leased 85,000 square feet of space .in the most prominent part of the giant Exhibition, and they plan to make cows ---making • cows the centre ;t1 their exhibit, Now, they are not going to have a few cows ,here, with a couple of neatly -dressed milk maids doing the manipulating when ¢milking time comes around. And there are not going to be any Alas making those cows restless. e m e It is planned to have • total of two hundred cows in the Exhibit, These it Is hoped, will consist of forty cows of each of 'the Ave dairy breeds -- Ayrshiree, Holsteins, Guernseys, iJerseys( and Brawn Swiss, The cones will be milked on a !'rotelactor," a sort of merry -go• rotund on Welt the coo' get a bath and are milked ..by ..machine, of • course. It is said that cows take quite readily to being handled in this way. They delight in their slower bath, and possibly like the ride around, The machine will ac- commodate ten cows, and they will be turned out minus their yield of milk in something like an hour. It is expected that about testy -Ode of the twenty -fur hours will be taken up with the milking of those two hundred cows, and New Yorkers, should, of course, become "intik conscious" after seeing an exhibit of that kind, But, shucks what is the use of two hundred' cows milked on a mullet: - tor. The public will never learn to appreciate the labor the real dirt farmer meat put into the produc- tion of milk just from. -watching those cows .riding on a rotolactor, That particular machine may be quite convenient for the millioua'se farmer with a large herd, but so far not even the manufacturers are optimistic enough to recommend the outfit to the average small cow fernier. Oh, no, out on the farm (Mud the greater portion of dairy production •starts from the small £arme) bhe old-fashioned milk stool and the iia bucket are the only equipment necessary to milk a cow. The milk stool, the milk pall and a filing corker, During the neat few months there is lLfely to be a bit of honest sweat en iha mikee's brow. Quite likely his shirt is apt to be trifle wet from that ceruse, and there may be times when he is apt to Use itis teutper a bit when those cows do a hit of switching. Of course good vy sprays have materially lessened the Ply nuisance at milking time, but the cost will switch just the same. . "Met of the future? Will are go ea milking our cows in the way cow owners or Old Testament days did? Or -Silt be eventually have rote. Motors, or at leas, nrilklng ma- chines? The Borden. Company ,plan to call their exhibit "The Dairy World 0f Tomorrow,' and our ques- tion is, are they right? Will these Ideal milking conditions such as cilia' ina £ew of the large United States farms at present, some day be common to the smaller Dairy farrn--or will the smaller dairy farm eventually be absorbed in the large units? What will be the "Dairy World et Tomorrow." Right now we envy those cowe. A shower bath at milking ttnie, es- pecially right after milking half a dozen hot cows, Well, it might be appreciated more if those who sit on the old milk stool than by the cows; and we are informed that the cows otic quite keen on their shower bath. STRETCH OF HOME GAMES SHOULD MD MAPLE LEAFS A few years ago, an aggregttiou Of dejeotel,players wearing the uni- form of the Toronto Maple Leafs trotted into Om dressing rooin -after iuet having lost 16 consecutIVe games.

The gasolines they had been using were drained from the tanks of their cars and replaced by this "mystery motor fuel" (the blue coloring had been omitted). Then they went out to test it—and later, their reports were collected and tabulated. WHAT DID THEY PROVE? 86% of these experienced motor- ists reported that this "mystery fuel" gave a better performance than the gasolines they had been using (a total of 30. including 13 premium priced fiiels). The gaso- line they tested is the New and Improved Blue Sunoco we are now offering you at regular gas price. TilIS, BEYOND ANY - QUESTION, RANKS THE NEW BLUE SUNOCO AS AN OUTSTANDING GASOLINE.
