Niles and Professor Hilgard. They all
advocated dairy instruction and also III c
| necessity for legislation to regulate cleo
margarine. Professor Hilgard thought

caused to be inserted in the platforms of
the Republican and Democratic parties
blanks pledgiug them to Tpgullie the sale
of m Manufactured butter. I'VE don't mind
the sale OF this butter so much, remarked

make them label it olemargarine and not
fancy dairy butter, as they did at the Mid
winter Fair"

Ii. NJ. lie Baron made few remarks on
| hlseXpsrlence in butter making while a
! resident of Canada. He stated that after
/ the tariff bill of 1862 was passed by the
/ United States the butter markets in New
! Ork, Boston and ether cit were cut of,
/ and Canada was obliged TO look elsewhere
for butt r market, An outlet was found
/ in the Old Word, but 1t was only after
! the closest kind of competition with the
! United States.
Now Canada has a ready market for all
] her butter. There are inspectors appointed
by the Government who examine all bu,-
Ter that is exported, so that none of poor
] quality is thrown on The European market.
The speaker thought that California but
ter should be inspected before put on sale.
Mr.. Denman remarked: ''We should not
entertain the Idea hat we are making iU-
lerior butter to the rest of the world. We
are making just as good, if not belt-r, than
some sections OF the Country. In my ex-
perience In making butter find that the
creamery system pays much better than
the pan system. IL we are going into the
butter business We are Obliged TO put our
butter In the best form possible. The
! competition is very strong IN all the
Eastern markets. and unless we take
great care in making butter we cannot
command good prices for IT"
