Cream. says Webster, the Dictionary man. is
the best part of anything; the unctIouS, oily sub
stance which rises and forms on the surface OF
ililk. As IS well known it is the most delicate
md therefore the most peI1Shable OF all farm pro
ducts.
To save crear.. it has heretofore been deemed
necessary to chun It, and thus convert 1t into but
,t,T. which, IN turn, will ultimately turn rancid
This custom of preservation, therefore, must be
allied uncertain.
Let us examine the other, and. conparitivelv
"oleru process which SareS cream, and for an
.i2s0St indefinite tme enables il TO retain all OF
NEUTRAL flavor, and sweetness: is cheap, prac,

ScitnU.StS, dairymen and the cream consuming
plblir 1t is Rex MaguuS the HumjSton Food
treServative, that 3rjU do it for either cream or
nilk as well as meats, poultry and food of al
kinds.
