Off Flavor Milk
More Prevalent
In Summertime
The problem of bad tasting
milk, especially in the summ
er, has plagued dairymen toi
years Otten it is blamed on
the ration, but this may not
always be the case Oft-tlavoi
ed milk, accoidmg to many
studies, may be caused by out
side souices including handl
ing and processing
W. R Hesseltine, extension
dairyman. University of Dela
ware, has compiled a list o£
gome of the common milk fla
vors and their probable cause
He indicates dairymen can use
this reference for trouble
shooting off-flavor milk in
their herd Many of the flavor
problems, he points out, can
h* easily remedied if the
source of fat flavor is known
1. Taste-grassy or weedy,
cause-presence of weeds (of
ten wild onions) in the teed
2 Taste-silage, cause - feed
ing silage and hay before milk
ing
3 Taste-sour, iery high hac
tena count, cause-dirty uten
sils, poor cooling
4 Taste-bitter, rancid like
butter, or like soap, cause
stripper cows, slow cook cool
ing, with foaming, cooling
warming, and cooling again
5 Taste-salty, cause-masti
tis, stripper cows, and indm
dual cows
6 Taste-malt. cause - high
bacteria, dirt} utensils, poor
cooling
7. Taste-like c a i dboard,
cause-exposed copper or iron in
equipment, cans need retinn
ing, milk exposed to daylight
Pa. Sweet Corn
Competition
Was Great in ‘6l
Stiff competition from New
York and New Jersey in 19.61
kept demand for Pennsylvania
sweet corn: at a generally low
level during the peak of its
marketing season through
August to mid-September
According to the annual re
port of the Federal-State Mar
ket News Service, these states,
with heavier supplies, influenc
ed price trends which Penn
sylvania had to follow because
of its weak marketing posi
tion
As a result, 1961 prices
were lower than in 1960. In
I 960", Pennsylvania yellow
«weet corn ranged from a low
of J 1 50 to a high of $2 25
per crate. In 1961, the range
was from 90 cents to ?1 90.
The one bright spot m the
1961 picture for Pennsylvania
•weet corn was that hydrocool
ed ears averaged about 25c
more per crate than non-hydro
cooled corn John P Capus,
U.S Department of Agricul
ture Market News representa
tive in Philadelphia, noted
that h>drocooled stock sold
well when it was difficult to
•ell the non-hjdrocooled pro
duct, and many standing or
ders went unlilled on some
dajs
In volume shipped into 41
cities during its mam 9-week
season ending in September,
Pennsyhama ranked sixth.
More than half of Pennsyl
vania's corn went to Phila
delphia with Pittsburgh the
next biggest market
