Dairy Inspector Thompson, OF the
DEPARTMENT of agriculture, was ~ the
Capitol. Monday, on business connected
with the department. Mr.. thompson
| is looking after the dairy products OF
the State, and their limitations, IN ac-
cordance with the provisions OF the
| laws passed at the recent session OF
| the legislature. In speaking OF the
commodity known as renovated but-
| ter" which is handled to some extent
| in the State, Mr.. Thompson SAID thal
there was a disposition on the part OF
some of the dealers not to handle IT,
under the new law, which requires that
the packages be marked "renoVateu
h,,ttcr" on ton and sides, and it also re-
| o,,ires that the dealer shall so marx
cach quantity sCld. The objection on
| the mart of the dealers is that they are
afraid that in making sales of this put
ter, the clerks might neglect to proper
~ mark the packages, when Wouiu
render them liable.
| Renovated butter is just what the
name implies. butter that is made over,
and can be made from old, rancid
stock, or from creamery or any DItter
that has been kept a long time. In or
der to produce the renovated butter
the stock is melted and skinned
which relieves it of all impurities. inc
oasein is precipitated, and then the
butter fat is drawn off and crystaiiZeo
bv letting it drop on ice or into ice wa
ter After this has been done, 1t Is re-
churned. either with milk or skim-r'ilk'
or cream is added, according to the
grade that is required. When the but-
ter has been renovated" it looks hke
other butter but lacks grain, and is apt
70 crumble like old cheese when cut. IL
lalso lacks flavor. When placed or I e
market. it sells for three or four cents
less than the dairy product.
