BOSS BUTTER.
Comparison Of the Dreamer V with that
Manufactured AZ Lame.

Manufactured al LONE.
This question Is often asked why
creamery butter brings higher price
in the market than the single dairy pro-
ducts, and a correspondent of the Home
stead answers it as follows: THE milk
of cooperative creamery is all set
alike, and under rs nearly similar con-
ditions as possible. As this applies to
every patron, uniformity must result, a
thing that cannot be enjoined upon a
like number of farm butter makers.
Then each uses a system of cans alike,
matter that could not be found in farm
diaries. Cream is the one thing the
farmer is after, rather than quantity OF
milk, good or poor; and the receipts of
the factory being based upon the farm
ers' own creamn result, and determined
by measuring it each day, every effort
will be eXerted to make fine showing,
and the shortest road to reach this result
is by extra care and feeding the cows so
that higher grade of cream must fol-
low. Competition will cause the farmer
To strive for high attainments, and as
there is no way to dilute or to add to the
cream SO as to make it appear to be

and fine cream is the first step in secur-
ing fine butter. Thus it VIII be seen

Now, this cream, gathered and taken to

exists to turn out a uniform and one
grade product, and shipped to market
and eaten within fortnight, at least be-
fore it has parted with its delightful
