MEDIUM Sailing FOR BUTTER
Creamery Men Would Profit by Avoid
ing Excessive Use Of Salt and
Pack Tubs Carefully. -

Butter that is too highly sailed is
difficult to % In the ordinary trade
channels, and creamery men would do
well to guard against high sailing un-
less they have a special outlet which
calls for that kind, say specialists of
the bureau of markets and crop esti-
mates, United States Department Of
Agriculture. A gritty condition Of the
salt In butter seriously Injuries its mar
ket value.
A number of butter receivers are adj
vising shippers not to fill their butter
tubs too full. During the summer ship
ments are often exposed to the heat
of the sun at some point in transit,
and the butter at the top of the tub
becomes very soft and runs over the
edge of the tub when handled. Such
shipments are brought to receivers
stores in bad condition, often showing
a heavy shrinkage in weight, resulting
in a direct financial loss to the cream
cry, which could easily have been
avoided by filing the tubs properly.
This condition rarely occurs In carlot
shipments. When less : than carlot
freight OF express shipments are made
the butter should be thoroughly chilled
before shipping. T..
