If there are any cases where teats are in short supply, we shall be glad to look into them.
Three times as many rubber teats are now being manufactured as in the summer, and retailers' stocks are being built up as rapidly as possible.
Would they be any good for babies' teats?
Before milking started, designated teat cup liners were swabbed to check cleanliness.
Similarly, 47 % of the strains found on teat and udder skin were the same as strains isolated from heifer mammary secretions.
Samples were taken after the first streams of milk were discarded, and after teat ends had been disinfected with cotton swabs drenched in methylated spirits.
Other bottles were available in the late nineteenth century, mainly flattened bottles, closed at one end and with a short teat.
While collecting, the first two draws from the teat were allowed to drain and the subsequent flow was collected.
