total production being forecast at 44O,-
00,O00 bushels, or 1900, 900 bushels
less than 1917.
Sweet potato production probably
will make another record, according to
the August forecast which equals the
record Of 1926.
The fourth largest crop of tobacco
is forecast, with total production of
l, 425, 100000 pounds.
Another 100000, ,OOO-bushel crop of
apples, the eleventh in 33 years. is
indicated.
Peaches are plentiful, with a total
production this year second only to
1915.
July weather's influence on the
growing crops was said to have been
extremely beneficial, as indicated by
the increase in forecast of production
this month as compared with those Of
month ago. Spring wheat showed
an increase in it's production forecast
of 100000 bushels; corn, 157, ,00O,-

BETTER GRADE
BUTTER NEEDED
State Dairy Department Wants All
Creamerymen to Make Still
Greater Showing.
SOC, 100000 REALIZED
FROM SALES IN 1921
Average Butter Fat Handled by Min
nesota Creameries Amounts
to 10000 Pounds.

The Dairy and Food department,
working in conjunction with the Uni
versity of Minnesota, dairy division,
in study of the variation Of COM
position of creamery butter made in
our state, as evidenced by analysis of
samples of the butter entered in the
May scoring contest, has secured some
very valuable information which we
wish to bring to the attention of
creamery men and buttermakers.
When you realize that Minnesota
creameries manufactured approx
mately 17Q,O00,000 pounds of butter
in the year 1921, over 80 per cent of
which was butterfat, the returns for
which aggregate nearly $66,000,000,
one readily appreciates the necessity
of maximum efficiency in the opera
tion of our creamery properties. In
other words, such methods ought to
be continually employed as will bring
about the incorporation Of proper per-
centages of other ingredients that go
to make normal butter, such as salt,
moisture, etc., in order that no un-
necessary amounts of butterfat shall
be disposed of without receiving due
return therefor.
/ The standard composition of butter,
definitely determined by law and by
u. S. treasury regulation, requires,
as is generally known, less than 16
per cent of water and not less than 80
per cent of fat, leaving the salt con-
tent to the skill of the maker or de-
mand of the trade, or both.
Analysis of samples taken from the
entries in the May scoring contest dis
closes the following averages: Fat,
80 per cent; water, 14.7 per cent;
salt; 1.9 per cent; curd, z per cent.
It will be noted that the average per
centage of fat is approximately per
cent more than at all necessary, and
is unfair to the producer. In other
words, if these samples are represen-
tative of the average of the output of
the several creameries from which
these samples were received, we are
forced to the conclusion that we are
giving the consumer about 2 per cent
of the butterfat handled by Minnesota
creameries, an annual loss to our
creamery patrons of considerably
more than $1,0Oo,000, an enormous
sacrifice to inefficiency that is neither
fair nor necessary, and which can be
largely eliminated by simply employ
ing available methods of manufacture

enough higher than that paid on bonds
to take care of necessary overhead ex-
pense. One-half per cent should be
sufficient.
"Another feature that surely will be
recognized is an amortization plan for
repayment; that is, payments will be
extended over long period 80 to 35
years. Each installment will be for
the same amount, to be met annually
or semi-annually. Of each such pay
ment a part will go to meet interest
charges then due and the remainder
will apply on the principal. The older
the loan, therefore, the greater will
be the payment on principal, so when
the term expires, the loan is paid au-
tomatically."
Grain Growers Affairs Snarled.
Farmers who have signed u. S.
Grain Grower contracts, as we'll as
creditors, must exercise patience while
the new management endeavors to
place the company on sound financial
basis, says statement issued by E..
H. Cunningham, new president.
"As the new management of the
U. S. Grain Growers, Inc, comes into
CONTROL" the statement says, "it has
no Utopian scheme to propose. We
recognize certain economic laws which
can not be fouted, without inviting
disaster.
"We plan to create producers SELL
ing agency, which shall function in
strict accordance with sound business
methods and procedure. We do not
expect to establish any spectacular re-
forms. Our members must exercise
patience.
"The u. S. Grain Growers is in de-
plorable condition, financially. 1t has
net deficit of $285, 5,267.27. While that
is significant enough to trained fnan-
ciers, it gives the general public no
conception Of the financial entangle-
ments and complications that will have
to be ironed out before we can hope
to attempt actual grain marketing
operations.
"We have no illusions concerning
the outlook. We understand perfectly
the size of the task confronting the
new management. We are making no
optomistic promises that may prove
impossible of fulfllment.
"Our immediate and most urgent
concern is with the creditors. Prac-
tically everything depends upon the
attitude they assume toward the new
organization. Most of them are dis
posed to be lienient, but not all. Just
what the future may develop, no man
can say. At the proper time, after we
have gathered up the loose ends, we
shall make frank statement"
