To Keep Milk Fresh Milk that goes bad from hav- ing the air excluded is very dif- ferent to milk that has soured naturally; indeed, the former is as poisonous as t inned food that has gone wrong. Cover the open neck of the bottle with an up- turned saucer and then store in a wooden box that has been fill ed with clean sawdust or chaff. Keep the box in a place that is both cool and airy. In this way milk will keep for a whole day even in very hot weather. Vaseline will remove mildew or stains from leather. Have you met Bill's flnancee? No. What's she like?
