French Butter Markets

During the months of June, July
and August the butter markets of Nor
mandy are an interesting sight to the
visitors. The peasants assemble in
the market squares of the various
towns, almost in military formation
with their baskets filled with large
pats of butter, each done up in the
whltest of cloths. The buyers walk
along the lines and bargain for the
wares, tasting samples before deciding.
If the prospective buyer is satisfied
with the flavor of one morsel he
knows he may rely on the rest of it
being equally good, for the French
law regarding the adulteration of food
is very strict, and fraudulent seller
is severely dealt with.
