Standard Cream.

There was a time, some years ago,
when cream was always of about the
same consistency. That was before
the cream trade had settled down to
be one of the great industries of a
dairy nature Since that time we have
noticed gradual weakening of the
cream. Now when one orders cream
in restaurant OF hotel he is not
sure whether the fluid that is brought
to him is milk or cream. In fact, it
is very apparent that some of the
cream so-called is nothing more than
very rich milk. We doubt not that
very large proportion of the cream
contains less than ten per cent of but
ter fat. The state law of Illinois and
some other states now makes it nee
essary for commercial cream to have
not less than II per cent of butter
fat. But there are practically no
state inspectors, and that means that
the people in all of the smaller places
have no protection from the law as to
what the density of the cream shall
be. The movement by some of our
leading dairy scientists to get STAN
dardized milk will doubtless result in
getting standardized cream. 1t
seems to us that the cream is more
often low in fat content than is the
milk. The tendency is much greater
to sell attenuated cream than it is to
sell milk from which the cream has
been partly removed. The latter is
quite generally regarded as a dishon-
orable course, while in the making of
cream there is Lo standard recog-
nized, and even the one established
by law is arbitrary and not natural.

Effect of Sea Voyage on Cheese.


Liverpool, Eng, July 29.-Some
time ago a we1l-known firm in Bow
den sent a Cheshire cheese to a
friend in Perth, Western Australia.
The reply is worth reading: ct ar
rived in a most aristocratic condi-
tion," says the recipient. 1T was so
high that when we took the lid off
the box we were nearly spif1icated.
The cat took refuge in a tree, the
collie dog barked at it for hal an
hour by the clock. When we recov-
cred a little and were calm enough
to take observation, we found there
was not fly left in the house. The
clock had stopped and the smell had
put the fire out. This all goes to
prove what a splendid cheese it is.
They have got it all round Perth that
Faulkner's have got a real Cheshire
cheese, and about a thousand people
have walked past our store in the
hope of getting a sniff of it. So far
the grocers talk of having it cremated,
because they say that now the Perth
public have been let into the secret of
what cheese is really made of they
they get here and call it cheese.
When it landed here it was a bit
high. 1 expect the heat of the tropics
set it ripening. After being exposed
to the cold for a day or two it is all
right. We have treated many of our
friends to a taste, and they are all
pleased with it; so are we.''-Amer-
ican Cheesemaker.

We all know or at least sur mise what Intoxicating drinks will do to our brains and, ill fact, to our health. Therefore we should be very solfcitous as far as drinking is con cerned. Our advice to the public is to drink nothing stronger or more 1nJurl- ous than good, nice tasting, pala latable Tea, Coffee or Cocoa, and you should be very careful where you purchase them.
