Roughly speaking. for each one per cent. or rat removed -by` skimming. the lactometer reading of the partially skimmed milk would be increased by about one degree. The use of the lactometer is fully ex-_ plained -in the. bulletin. As an ex- ample the bulletin~ cites the case all 4 per cent. milk that has a lacto- ` meter reading or 32. When one per cent. of the fat or cream is removed, the lactometer reading will be in- creased to above 33. Further it is shown that if the lactometer reading increases one degree with each one per cent. of fat removed `by skim- ming. t'he per Icent. of solids not fat would n-ot be affected. In actual` practice it is usually found that par- tially skimiming milk slixgh-tly in- icreases the per cent. of solids not fat. skimming mil-k, therefore, re- duces the per cent. of fat and in- creases the lactometer reading 1eav- . ing the per cent. 01' solids not cfat - normal or slightly high. If, on the`! other hand. instead of removing.` some oi? t'he fat, water is added tolf the -milk, this is also easily -detected -` `both by_ testing` for fat and by deter- '3 `mining the specific gravity of the : I product. If a sample of milk shows a la'ctometer reading of 32, one gal- ' ion o'f such milk will weigh 10.3-2 pounds as against '10 pounds. the weight of a gallon of water. If one gallon of this milk is mixed with a gallon of water we would have 20.82 pounds which -would `be the combin- ed weight of a -gallon of `milk and a gallon of water. One-half or this.. quantity.
