A large sum of money is lost an
nually In Wisconsin because of the
low score OF butter sold at one to two
cents per pound less. than the best
grades. This is not a loss that Is
felt a great deal by the factory own
ers because what remains after the
expenses and profits of the factory
have been deducted goes to the pro-
Queer of the butter fat II Is plainly
evident. therefore. that the loss to the
state on account of the poorer grades
OF butter is the dairymans loss.
In nearly every community the ma
jority OF the milk and cream produc
ers recognize this fact and are inter
ested In the production Of the kind
OF product that will make good but
ter. The few that are disinterested
or will not accept the advice OF the
butter maker as TO how better grade
of cream can be produced, are the
ones that are responsible for the low

first be rinsed with cold water. and
then washed with warm water con

warm as the hand can bear, otherwise

DISP0SING OF THE

seem to think that the septic tank is
simply a hole In the ground into
which the drainage from lhe factory

This is an item that must be consld-

1t Is also more economical for the
factory to handle the richer cream
There are several cooperative cream
cries that have invested from $500
to $500 in extra creamery machinery
because of the thin cream that must
be handled. There has also been a
loss greater than this because of the
lower quality of the butter. and In

FACTORS GOVERNING
RICHNESS OF CREAM
BY PROF. C. E. LEE,

WA1COHhH1 (0HSBC VI N8TFSAAhbEEs
The most important factor control
ling the richness of cream is the cream
screw In the separator, but even when
that is adjusted properly there will ba
some variations in the per cent. OF fat
in the cream.
Ordinarily. the richer the milk, the
richer the cream. When the cows are
on fresh June pasture. or when they
have freshened they are likely to give
a little poorer milk than in winter
when fed on dry feed or when they are
nearly dry. Accordingly, the cream
for June will at times show a varia-
ton of seven per cent. under that pro-
duced during the six months following.
Not running the separator at uni
form speed will also affect the cream.
because the slower the separator bowl
rotates the thinner win be the cream
II too much skim-milk or water is
used in flushing out the bowl after
each time the separator Is used, the
cream VIII be thinner. Use no more
than just necessary to free the bowl
from cream.
Sometimes the skim.milk or the
cream outlet becomes clogged, inter
fering with the free passage of either
the cream or the skim-milk through
their respective openings. These out
let's should be examined frequently.
