Butter and Olsomargarins

The growth OF the manufacture OF oleo.
margarine and the skill which the manu-.
facturers have attained in its production
has alarmed the butter makers throughout
the country. A few days since the subject
was presented by committee in Congress
by representatives of the dairy interest
In the course Of the presentation of facts,
it was stated by New York dairyman that
il nothing was done to compel the manu-
facturers of oleomargarine to stamp every
package of their goods the dairy interests
of the country would suffer loss of 5Oper
cent in its production and profits. The
dairy interests ask Congress to compel the
manufacturers OF oleomargarine to stamp
every package that they put upon the mar
ket, in order that the people may not be
deceived
1t appears from report Of the proceed
ings at a meeting of the International Dali
ry Fair, in New York, Tuesday evening,
that the oleomargarine interests actually
undertook and came very near getting con-
troll OF the organization. This was Dol d
push on the part of those who make but
ter by other than dairy methods to get
control OF an association of dairymen.
The st. Louis Globe Democrat recently
published an article in which it was as
serted in the most positive manner that
what is known as creamery" butter is
largely adulterated with oleomargsrine.
The statement seems incredible and will
be received with many doubts. II states
that creameries where this quality Of but
ter is made are often located near oleomar
garine factories In these the tallow and
grease are made into an oil which is mixed
with the cream at the cream cries and made
into the finest appearing creamery butter.
1t is further stated that this oil is shipped
in barrels to distant parts OF the country.
