village the opening of a singing school
under the auspices of the church brought
about the singing of an oratorio at an
outdoor musical festival last summer
which drew its audience from many

the development of a community interest

there would be rapid improvement
in the quality. The proportion of
good table butter that would grade
"extras" is very small This assump-
ton is justified by the results obtain
ed from the Introduction of the grad
ing system in the state of Maine.
The dairy authorities in that state
inform us that at one time at least
30 per cent of the cream was sour
when it reached the creameries, but
that within a short time after sys-
tenn of grading was established, by
which sweet cream received a premi
UNI of two to three cents per pound
of butterfat. 95 per cent of the cream
was sweet when it reached the cream
cry, and this condition still prevails.
This simple system of grading has
proved to be of mutual advantage to
the creameries and their patrons in
this section. The latter have received
price for their product several cents
above market quotations, while the
creameries have maintained high

Given before the State Butter
Makers and Creamery Operators AS
ISOLATION, Seattle, Washington, Dec
ember 18th and 18th, 1913
With all our vast knowledge of the
art, as we'll as the science and prac-
tice of butter making, most of which
has been acquired in the last decade,
we are forced to admit that the butter
made in creameries twenty years ago
was decidedly better than that which
is made today. We have often heard
the statement that the butter we get
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1914-01-15

the cream must be sour for churning,
the old cream should make as good
butter as the new, and should there
fore command the same price.
Obviously our problem is educating
the farmer. We should cooperate
with him as much as possible. The
first step to take would be to hold a
meeting of the cream patrons. and to
make known the fact that while but
ter of average quality can be made
out of sour and Off favored cream,
it takes extra good cream to make an
extra good quality of butter, but
with this extra quality in the cream,
the finished product will sell for a
higher price, and consequently the
patron can be paid better price for
his raw product.
In localities where it would be i'm
practicable to hold meeting, this in
formation should be distributed by
circular letters or folders, or by the
cream haulers through direct CONVEX
sation with the patron.
There should be no hiding of profit
in the creamery business. The but
ter makers profits are more or less
clearly defined as being the over-run
which he can secure. The greater the
volume of business, the greater the
profits, and since the better quality
of the butter would tend to increase
the sales, the profits would be larger,
and the butter maker could pay the
patron more for his cream. Such in
formation should be given the patron.
When butter was scarce, and the
consumer was willing to take any
quality rather than go without, there
was not such a demand for a grading
system. But today factories are 60
ing up everywhere, and only those
who are making goods OF the first
quality are able to dispose of them at
a profit Paying for quality in the
cream is the only method by which
the quality Of the butter can be i'm
proved. One patron is careless. SLOW
emily in his methods, another is care
full and tidy. Is it more than reason
able to expect better cream in one
case than in another, and is it more
than fair to pay higher for the good
cream than for the poor? don't
think so. To further emphasize this
allow me to quote from report of
the United States Department of
Agriculture which states:
"lf the creamery men would pay for

How to Grade Cream
Paper by A. B. Nystrom

now never tastes as good as that which
mother used to make. No doubt such
a statement comes from the fact that
while we were youngsters, with a
good appetite. everything tasted good
to us, and as we have grown older We
have become more critical. Still
when we think of the good care moth
er used to give the cream, and what
pains she took in the churning, we
cannot help but feel that her butter
really was better at least in flavor
than that which we eat today.
In view of this fact, we can only
say that what science has done, or is
doing in the line of producing better
butter, is to help the butter maker
correct the faults of the cream pro-
Queer, and it is now time for the
producer of cream to do his part.
The reason for this seeming retrogres-
sion is unquestionably that the cream
from which we make the product to-
day is inferior to that used tweny
years ago.
This has resulted partly through
the advent of the farm separator-no
doubt the cream separator agent is
partly to blame, and partly from the
use of the pasteurizer. Most of the
creameries twenty years ago were
either whole milk creameries, or
private herd creameries. In either
case sweet whole milk was received,
the cream separated, ripened and
churned. Since sour milk could not
be heated without curdling, it was
possible to draw a definite line be-
tween good and poor milk, and this
without serious objection from the
patron. The farm separator has made
such grading scheme decidedly diff
cult. Frequently we see advertise
ments of farm separators showing a
picture of small five gallon can in a
light buggy drawn by spirited horse
driven by young lady, on her way
to the creamery, and in contrast to
this, dozen large milk cans in a
heavy farm wagon drawn by a heavy
team, with the farmer himself holding
the lines. The impression it makes
upon the prospective separator buyer
is unquestionably good, and if it were
carried out in the way the advertise
ment pictures it, there could be but
very slight deterioration in the
product made from the cream. But
now the question comes. does the girl
in the buggy make as many trips per
week to the creamery as were made
by the man in the wagon? There is
where the difficulty lies. The cream
is held over, often in unsantiary
places, and instead of daily trip to
the creamery, the cream is delivered
only twice or three times per week.
Just how to begin a system Of grad
ing is hard to state. The farmer
often thinks that about all the
cream can do is to sour, and since
