The handling of these products makes an industry of great commercial and economic importance. The time is rapidly passing when people regard milk, butter, cheese, and ice cream as luxuries to be used chiefly to please the taste. Rather, they are now used because they furnish valuable food nutrients in desirable form. As the prob lem of feeding the cities becomes more acute and the food value of dairy products is more generally recognized, they will form a more important item in the human diet. The methods by which these products are handled influence decidedly their food value. It is, therefore, important that, in the handling of these products, the best practices should be employed. During recent years much has been added'to our knowledge in this field and much has been written, but it is widely scattered through agricultural literature and is not easily accessible. This Manual has been prepared for the purpose of bringing to gether the work of the best authors into such form as to meet the needs of busy persons, both students and men in commercial work. The book is made up largely of quotations, credit being given in each case. No claim is made to originality, my task being rather that of selection and arrangement. If the book meets a need, an effort will be made to keep it up to date. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
