In the cold water, milk can be cooled in from ten to twenty minutes if the water is frequently changed, or if ice is added to the water. MODIFIED MILK OF THE MILK LABORATORIES _What is "modified milk" of the milk laboratories?_ It is milk containing definite proportions of the fat, sugar, proteids, etc., put up usually according to the prescription of a physician, who indicates how much of the different elements he desires. The most reliable are the laboratories of the Walker-Gordon Company, which has branches in many of the large cities of the United States. |
