CANADIAN BUTTER ON THE
BRITISH MARKET,
Speaking on the above snbjeot before a
reliant meeting of Coterie dairymen, J,
A Ruddiok, Chief of the Dalry Division,
Ottawa, gave some advice, that will, if
followed, have an excellent effect upon
the quality, of the butter exported from
Canada, He said in part : - "Very
proper questions for butter manufmcturere
to ask would be, How dtee oar butter
suit the British trade ? What are its
deleoto, it any, and how may they be
remedied ? In answer to the fleet epee
tion I would say that our very finest
batter gives excellent entiofao0ion and it
i0 donbtfal if there is any better butler
on the market, The trouble is that the
quality is irregular, holo uniformity, or
in Other words it is unreliable, A dealer
may get one lot ill excellent oonditlon and

he is inclined to give a pride equal only to
the value of the poor lot. Ii this way

is also Bnid to deteriorate very quickly
after it is landed on the other side, and

Cause of Deterioration. -Now let as

believe it oan be stated in a very few
words. It ie beoanee the batter ie not

F. A. Knowlton, travelling inspector,
who made numerous taste during the
past 'lesson of the temperature of butter
at the creameries and as delivered to the
refrigerator oars, reports that the lowest
temperature be faond was 33 degrees on
two occasions, one lot being from the
West Shefford Creamery and the other
from the Uomptoa Model Farm Oream

degrees, and the average of fifty lots was
nearly 49 degrees. Ie tt any wonder that
oar butter lacks uniformity ? M. B.
Loogeway, who to refrigerator oar
