butter for little Tennessee town to be making.
The creamery development has given new
impetus to the dairy industry in the sections
where it has developed, By standardizing the pro-
Duct it has made the production OF butter fat prof

OF butter was not profitable For most farm

1t profitable to keep cows for butter making, but
it is the exceptional farm that produces good but

to make and market it. 1t sells this wav because
it is an inferior and an unstandardized product
Tennessee cow keepers are finding this out and
establishing creameries. Many other Southern
