CENSUS OF DAIRY INDUSFRIES OF
CANADA, 1911.
Ottawa, March, 1912. -The census and
statistics bulletin for March, issued to -
'day, gives the records of butter, cheese
and condensed milk as collected at the
census of last year. There were 3,028
factories in operation in 1010. The
quantities of butter made in the year
was 50.875,097 pounds, having a value
of $15,02.504. This is 23,818,3e8 pound,
more than in 1000, an dthe value
more by $8,441,502. The quantity of
cheese is 231,012.71)8 pounds, which is
more than at the previous census fy
.10,179,529 pounds, but the value is less
by $000,776. The total value of butter,
cheese and condensed milk in A10 was
$39,143,080, and in 1900 it was S'.23.731,-
922, being an increase of $9,111,157 in
ten years.
Taking butter alone. the value of the
factory products wee $7.2.10enno in lex;
and $15.682,561 in 1910, and the vil ot. of
cheese alone was $21.890,432 in .0(nn end
$21..620,654 in 1910. The ava..use prae
of factory sheeee was 20 cente ter pound
and of eheese, 10 cents per pound, whilst
in 1010 the average price of eutter was
26.2 cents per pound, and of agree
9 (puts per pound.
cotnparison of the quantities and
value6 of the production of liutt3r eod
cheese is given in the folio sing tables
by provinces for the census years .1101
and 1911 for the preceding years respec-
tively.
The increased prier. of feetory better
led to a larger production in 1010 than
in 1900, and this was made espeelaily
hi Quebec at the cost of a lower Tro-
duction of cheese. The change :vas :nr-
ther induced lsy the lower rate of defy
on cream in the Unit id ;tat, s, nitwit
encouraged larger exports to thtt came
try.
The number of condea se 1 milk fin -lev-
ies in operation inereesed from four in
1900 to twelve in 1910, and the value
prodvets increased from Vil.n20 to
$1.8? -9,871. There are now six factories
in Ontario, with a product of $1,435,689,
two in Nora Scotia with $133.950, two in
Quebec with $275,000, one in British Co-
lithibia with $.14,9513 and one in Prince
