o-organisms, the difference being that
in this case desired organisms are not
yeasts, hut bacteria, and are not planted
in the cream Intentionally by the butter
maker, but are there at the outset when
the cream is set for ripening. The OBJ
ject of the ripening also is. slightly diff.
ferent. It,is not intended to produce al
cohol, but rather to give rise to GER
tain amount Of Tactic acid which hastensl
churning and gives greater yield from
the cream, and, more important still, to
give rise to certain series Of decomposi-s
tion products which have Q very deli
cate aroma and taste, and which i1n-;
pregnate the butt Ell, giving to it the PEI
culiar desirable taste Of . first class
product. /" ~ Z. 4. 81 .s... Az
AS to what No. Al will do, particu-
larly what it will not do, the professor
writes: H. 4S#, Nv 43%
Bacillus No. Al will not affect the
grain Of the butter; it will not affect
the amount Of the butter. It does not
greatly affect the aroma Of the butter
that is, the products that appeal to the
nose-and while butter made by its use
does have a pleasant aroma it is not
commonly very prominent one When
tested by the nose only, the butter, there
fore, is not rated at its full value. Nor
will Bacillus No Al make first class
butter out Of third class cream. With
the use Of this culture, as without it, il
is necessary that care should be taken
by the butter maker and the milk pro-
ducer to have good cream. But the good
effects of the culture are several. First
and foremost, it does improve the fla.
vor, This effect is first seen in the
cream. When two lots Of cream from
the same gathering are placed side by
side, one inoculated with Bacillus No.
ii and the other not, and allowed to
ripen together. the following differences
will be seen: The ordinary cream will
in normal manner sour and thicken.
The inoculated cream will not become
{ go sour nor SO thick, but will acquire q
rich, pleasant flavor. Both will be acid,
but the one will commonly have thin,
sour taste, and the other rich flavor,
besides the acid taste. # the ripening is
continued longer, the effect is still more
noticeable. The normal cream becomes
thicker and sourer and more unpleas-
ant, while the inoculated cream does
not grow much sonrer, but its flavor in
creases in richness. II now butter be
made from the two samples, the one will
make good, but moderately favored
