MAKING MILK POWDER
IN VILLAGES

New Delhi, July 20
A simple and inex-
pensive process for pro-
ducing milk powder from
skim milk which can be
adopted in villages is des-
cribed in the June-July
issue of Vigyan Pragati,
a Hindi monthly of Coun-
cil of Scientific and In
dustrial Research. The
insoluble type of powder
obtained by this metnod,
developed at the National
Dairy Research Institute,
Earnal can be used to
advantage for enriching
breed and Chapaties and
for making toffee.

The prooess consists
in boiling skim milk in
a 'Karahi' with constant
stirring to prevent the
milk from burning to
form. The-pat is remo-
, ved and broken by hand
on perforated trays. -The
trays are then kept in a
drying cabinet at s. tern,
peratnre of 1lO 1200C
After drying, the powder
is ground and sieved to
give fine, insoluble type,
of powder. , If . contains '
all the oonstitutents which
are present in skim milk.

The cost of making
10 lb. of powder by
this method works out
to about Rs. 0 62 nP.
