a . % $ < ed in order to determine if it meets the standard requirements This is the custom followed by most cream cries, payment being made in accord -ucc Uith the percentage of butter faI shown. The Dairy Co. adopted the system because a good part of the milk delivered to it this season is de- 0cIonr i7 fhe solid constituents. these being butter fat and casein. The doHoucv does not necessarily mean that the producers aduiterate their product ..ith water as the quality of milk i'm it's natural state is a matter of breeds and feeds. Thus Jersey cow can be depended on to produce milk considerably above the standard lu fat while the Holstcin's more album iuut yield often falls below The food element is no less a factor. Cotton seed meal gives the best re- turns as to both quantity and quality while brewery grains or barley in it's full streu~-h will stimulate the milk flow at the expense of quality. Since barley is now comparatively little in demand for either beer Or bread ma lSinE ft has been largely -zcd for -OC< food in combination with other grains That is one reason advanc- ed for tho watery state of much of tho seasons milk output. Another explanation is that while the Dreva- lent wet weather has made pasture plentiful the grass lacks the normal degree of nutrumeut. a defect reflect cd in the quality of the milk. So that the entire blame for poor qual- ity milk cannot justly be ascribed 70 the producing dairyman, although under the test system. he must. un- less his milk toes the mark, so to speak. suffer the financial penalty of smaller returns or perhaps have his offerings rejected altogether
