ty One man from Corpus Christi
said he had learned enough about
making butter to one hundred times
pay his trip here. Said he and his
wife were both raised on farm and
thought they knew all about butter
making. They milk now between
60 and 70 cows at the college and 1t
was noticed by us all that the but
ter given us to eat at the table IN
the mess hall was finely favored.
The fact is it was the best butter
we ever ate and this man followed
that milk from the COW pen, saw
the cream separated from the milk
and then carried through all the
processes to butter. This man said
he had brought "A sample OF his
butter along and 1t was not fit for
puppy to eat compared with the ar
ticle here made. This man from
Corpus Christi worked all the water
out of his, and the college butter
that was intended for immediate
use was one sixteenth water, that is
where butter was intended to be
used lin three days one pound
of water was left in every sixteen
pounds of butter. This Corpus man
said from now on he would sell
enough water to almost pay ex-
penses and at the same time give
them a better article of butter.
