ON BUTTER31.4.KING.
THE DANISH PRODUCT AS FOUND IN
THE BRITISH MARKET.
A Lady's Observation -Mrs. Tweedie
Thinks That larltleh Far nem Stay Learn
a Profitable Lesson k" ,om Little Den-
mark.
The following is e (het part of a
most interesting ar cle from the pen of
Mrs. Alec Tweedie Itt the hia.y number
of the Fortnightly Review :
England imported £13,470,419 worth of
butter In 1894. That is to say, 2,576,063
cwt. of butter carne into the country
from foreign and colonial tources.
Therefore, nearly f37,000 sterling was
paid out of Me country every day for
butter consumed by people um'. I to
make It for thernsehets. These figures
are somewhat startling.
About a third of the butler import
came from Denmark. Thus it w.li be
seen that Danish butter plays a very
important role In the household econ-
omy of our British wives, and even our
navy is largely provisioned with Danish
butter. Sir U. Kay -Shuttleworth, Sec-
retary of the Admiralty, informed the
House of Commons of the astounding
fact that the butter for the navy "was
ordered from abroad be.ause our agri-
culturists could not hold their own
with Danish butter." If we cannot com-
pete with the foreigner, at least we
might Imitate him. The yearly increase
in our import of Danish butter is very
great ,and its excellence Is widely ac-
knowledged. Therefore, a few words
about its origin and manufatture may
be of some interest.
IL is only within the last twenty years
that Denmark has made butter for ex-
port at all, and now this butter -Making
is the chief trade of the county and
the source of the greater part of its
revenue.
The Danish farmers have eeen the
advisability of combining and working
together, and have realized the advan-
tage of employing modern scientific
principles. They have also found that
the quality of butter cannot be main-
tained where each farmer makes it ac-
cording to his own method and after
his own Ideas; with the result that in-
dividual butter -making has b:en en-
tirely given up.
The farmers keep the cows and de-
liver the milk, or more often merely the
cream -properly separated by centri-
fugal machines -to the butter -making
factories, of which there are some hun-
dreds established over the country.
There the butter is made on the newest
scientific and hygenic principles, and a
certain standard of excellence is main-
tained. The result of this combination
of labor, with improved methods of
manufacture, is, that the Danish farm-
er to -day Is a rich man, with a regular
business, Instead of being discontented,
unemployed, and often almost starving,
as so many of our farmers are in Eng-
land.
Here they tell us they cannot grow
corn with sufficient profit to enable
them to compete in the market with
foreign grain, and they further add
that they cannot rear beef and mutton
in competition with foreign supplies.
Granting, for the present purposes, that
this is perfectly true, dos it necessarily
follow that all other doors of profitable
enterprise are closed upon them ? Are
foreign powers to grow rich on our gold
hy supplying us with necessaries which
we cannot, or rather will nut, supply
for ourselves ? Is our land to lie idle,
and our country laborer to starve, or
rush to swell the ever-incrasing pop-
ulation of the towns ?
Surely if a little country like Den-
mark can find employment, ay, and
grow rich on butter -making, we.may
take a lesson from her, and see if some-
thing cannot be done to alleviate the
misery of pastoral England. Naturally,
expeditions starting for the North Pole
have all their food supplies thoroughly
analyzed before deciding definitely
which are the most suitable. Dr. Fridt-
jof Nansen took only Danish butter,
n'uch compressed, with him on his four
or five years' experimental drift
through Polar Ice, and Mr. Frederick
Jackson, who started from our shores
last summer, Is similarly equipped; for,
although he choose everything English
as far as possible. he found our butter
dld not stand the severe tests equally
well with Danish. Danish and colonial
butter are creeping In everywhere,
Even In remote Sutherlandshire, the
native butter is so bad that Danish is
chiefly used. Yet the Danish has to
travel hundreds of miles at no little ex-
pense, while the other is made at the
very door, and so badly churned that
tii ? foreign product is preferred.
In the National Review for March
Mr, Inglis Palgrave, writing on agri-
cultural depression, estimates the an-
nual loss to farmers during the last fif-
teen or twenty years to be 125,000,000,
while 12,800,000 less Is distributed an-
nually in wages, But yet we go on in-
creasing our foreign imports of butter,
bacon and eggs, Instead of trying to
alleviate this disaster. Will no influ-
ential person take up this great ques-
tion, sift the matter to the root, and
suggest a remedy, or else let England
follow Denmark's excellent example.
Without going further, the following
table will give some Idea of what Eng.
land imports yearly from Denmark
alone :

It la erroneous to Imagine that Danish
butter -making is a "State" business.
The State has nothing whatever to do
with It beyond arranging competitions
and awarding prizes for esccellence.
These competitions are usually arranged
at twelve hoursnotice, so that the
competitors are obliged to send In any
butter they happen to have ready, in-
stead of an extra good pound or two
made specially for the exhibition with
great care.
Danish butter stands very high In the
English market, competing equally with
,
our own, and sometimes eclipsing it In
price its bacon, too, wItica
Ing yearly, le equal to any except the
very best qualities produced in Eng-
land.
The breed of pigs is not usually Dan-
ish at all ; on the contrary, the original
animals came principally from York-
shire and Berkshire. This la curious in
itself. Denmark imports our pigs,
breeds from them, fattens them, and
sends them back to us as bacon, and
still secures a profit.
The pig trade, concurrently with the
butter trade, has inereased enormously
in Denmark. In Copenhagen every
morning the pig market Is quite a fea-
ture of the day's proceedings. Carts
laden with the carcasses arrive from
the country or the station at very early
hours, until the market place is quite
full, and the babel of voices tremen-
dous. The costumes of the country folk
are often very quaint, and one cannot
but be struck by the good taste in color
often displayed by foreign peasants.
Some of their silver ornaments, too, are
very handsome, and so much prized.
that their owners are quite insulted
should some stranger offer to buy them.
This pig market is altogether a quaint
scene, with its curious,double-windowed
shops as a background. These double
shops are very peculiar. Th.' bottom
one is half Lelow the surface of the
pavement, and the customer requires to
go down a few steps to gain admit-
tance. The top shop is directly above
the lower one, the windows Mei ally ad-
joining, and the customer to gain admit-
tance must go up steps at the other
side. The result is striking; while in
the lower half sausages or saddlery are
fur sale, dainty bonnets and pretty laces
occupy the upper storey. Copenhagen
Is not satisfied with this extraordinary
d1splay of glass windows, but in be-
tween the shops the dressmakers and
glovers put little glass cases displaying
their wares. The dressmakers' dolls
are the most perfect models of costumes
possible, and marvels of minute de-
tail. With such a quaint background
and such pretty costumes, the pig mar-
ket becomes as picturesque a scene as
an artists' eye can wish to gaze upon,
and, while it Is picturesque, it Is also
remunerative.
Thus it is not in butter -making alone
that we English !night earn money, but
by rearing pigs on the milk left from the
butetr-making. Pig -rearing under such
circumstances Is an extremely profit-
able trade. The money -making does not
stop here, however. A tiny country like
Denmark makes £400,000 a year out of
her egg export alone. England's import
of eggs is about half a million a day
paid for with England's gold 1
The British petteent has never ex-
celled in rearing fowls, and yet it Is on
a small scale that fowls pay best, as
the peasants of Denmark, Hungary,
Belgium, France and Russia have long
since discovered. It is these countries
that supply us with eggs, which are not
obtained on large egg farms at all, but
from the village folk with their half-
dozen fowls or so. These cottagers sell
them to the egg collectors, who are con-
tinually going their rounds, and when
they have obtained a sufficient number
they pack them securely in boxes and
send them to,England.
Our farmers and cottagers do not con-
sider eggs worth troubling about, ap-
parently, judging by their scarcity ; but
eggs can be made to pay, nevertheless,
even when taken in hand by a busy wo-
man, as the following statement, quot-
ed from Mrs. J. H. Riddell, the well-
known authoress, will show :
"There can be no doubt but that poul-
try, properly managed, pay remark-
ably well. If anyone cares to start,
say with six hens and a cock of the old
barn -door breed, he can begin his ex-
periment at a cost of certainly not more
than 11 ls.
"At the expiration of a year his hens
will have repaid the first outlay, kept
themselves, and returned a trifle be-
sides. They will also have produced
fifty chickens (this Is a low estimate),
and he would, therefore, begin his sec-
ond year with, say from twenty to
thirty laying hens, for which he has
had to pay nothing, the sale of the re-
mainder settling the cost of keep,"
So far, large poultry farms have not
proved a success, the reason for which,
seems to be that the profit on poultry
will not pay for expensive plant in the
shape of model houses, wire enclosures,
drinking fountains, Incubators and such
luxuries.
Fowls must have a run, whether in
a good yard, by the roadside, or In a
field, but that run need not be large, if
some arrangement can be made to div-
ide it so that one portion may be "tak-
ing a rest" while the fowls are eating
worms, insects, etc., In the other part.
The great mistake that people make
is that they do not feed their poultry
sufficiently well.
Hens require good and regular food,
then they pay. They need change of
diet also -oats, barley, cheap wheat and
rice, with the husks on, and plenty of
clean water. Young chickens eat noth-
ing worth speaking of. Any amount
of money may, of course, be wasted, but
the best plan Is to give them rice,
crumbs, etc., and leave them to their
mothers, who will scrape for them and
keep them warm. Even when a really
good run Is unattainable a moderate
number of eggs can, with proper man-
agement, be depended on all through
the year.
It is to be lamented that ladles whose
incomes are small do not turn their at-
tention to poultry and dairy farming.
11' they began on a moderate scale and
learnt their experience as they went
along, they would soon find an appre-
ciable difference In their means. There
is nothing difficult about rearing chick-
ens; all they require is to be properly
foil and left alone. A practical hen -
wife writes thus: "I am just about
starting poultry -keeping again, so you
may judge I at least do not consider
hens a failure. On the contrary, I al-
ways found fowl -keeping most profit-
able."
We learn from an interesting book
just written on chickens that In a cer-
tain part of Hampshire they have start-
ed fowl -rearing by division of labor
Hatching and rearing up to a certain
point is done by the cottagers. As
Boon as the eggs are hatched they peg
the hen down by the roadside (that is,
tether her among the wayside clover)
beside a rough deal box, into which she
can retreat In bad weather. The chick-
ens, of course, are at liberty, and forage
for seeds,' insects and worms within a
ftilOrt radius of the mother. As very
little attention is required, a number
of broods can be reared In this way.
Eventually the farmer buys them up for
fattening purposes at prices varying
from nInepence to two shillings a head.
Whis experiment is paying in Hamp-
shire. Let us hope It may soon spread
tlioughout the length and breadth of
the land.
