The visiting committee having inspected the new boiler are of opinion that it is too small and recommend that one be got the same size as that in use. They also recommend that a 12 gallon tub be got for sweet milk as at present the buttermilk is carried in the sweet milk tub from want of vessels and thereby causes the sweet milk to turn sour sooner than it would otherwise do. They also recommend that a barrel be got for buttermilk.
