FIND CAUSES FOR
Favored BUTTER

Washington, D. c., June 1s.-lf your
butter at breakfast tastes metallic"
or "oilly" or "f1shy" it Is almost GER
tain indication that your grocer has un'
loaded storage butter on you, accord
ing to the bureau Of animal industry
of the agricultural department. The
bureau today gave out report of its
experiments designed to discover the
cause for these peculiar "flavors' in
certain buffers and as a result it urges
butter makers and dairy proprietors to
beware of the rusty milk can and the
churn with exposed metallic parts.
The bureau experts discovered that
contact with copper or iron, and
especially copper, gave flavor that
was not only dtsagreeable in butter
freshly made but increased the pro-
ducts rancidity the longer 1t was kept
in storage. The Investigation was
made because millions of tons Of but.
ter are now being made for the pur-
pose of putting the commodity in cold
storage against the winter demand.
