creamery the matter has become some
what complicated. The question that
has naturally arisen is whether these
cream patrons should be paid the same
price per pound as the patrons bring
ing whole cream. Both milk and cream
patrons get all their skim milk. but
one gets his from the creamery, while
the other does his own Swimming and
retains his own skim milk. When the
cream patron is paid ard his cream
only is taken into account he differs
from the whole milk patron by getting
no pay fer the fat in his skim milk and
nothing for his work of Swimming at
the farm.
The milk patron is paid for the total
amount of fat in the milk which in
clUdes both fat in the skim milk and
the cream, but the cream patron may
be paid for the fat in | is cream only.
At some factories this difference be-
tween the two patrons is adjusted by
| paying the cream patrons little higher
price per pound Of fat than the milk
patrons. Another arrangeme which
has proved fairly satisfactory is to make
some provision for paying the cream
patrons for the fat in his whole milk,
so that both milk and cream patrons
will be on milk fat basis. This is
done by assuming a uniform skim milk
test and then add the skim milk fat to
the cream fat; the sum of the two
representing the fat in the whole milk
| This takes no account of the farm
expense OF skimming. but the work
are balanced by the better condition OF
the cream separated at the creame
The cream patron does not probably
| know how much fat is left in the skin
milk when his cream Is separated al
| ue Idttli, DuG III 'udl Do ldlf1N estimated
to amount to about three per cent OF
| the whole milk fat. This does moi
| mean that the skim milk tests pei
cent Of the total fat in the whOle milk:
that is, milk testing p, cent leaves
| IL per cent fat in the skim milk. when
| the entire losses OF Swimming at the
! farm from The beginning Of the opera
ton to the end is taken into COS siderf-
| ton there is no doubt but the farm
| skim milk will test as much as 12 per
| cent fat which is 3 per cent Of the fat
| in the whole milk te sting 4 per cent fat
| BY assuming this uniform loss in the
| farm skimming, both patrons may get
| their ust share of the receipts Of the
creamery by adding ) per cent to the
| fat in the cream delivered by the cream
patrons. This three per tent is not.
| however, added to the test of the
cream, but TO the pounds of fat in the
| cream. The distribution Of money is
made, therefore, according to the
amount Of butter fat each patron de-
livers TO the factory in his milk or
cream.
