120 Thirty-Sixth Annual Report of the 



done, — and yet it is said that "where ignorance is bliss 'tis folly 

 to be wise." The test is cut for the purpose of making a bigger 

 showing in monthly returns. I have understood there were 

 creameries where that was done by mutual consent ; but so far 

 as I know, that has not been done by mutual consent in our part 

 of the State. 



Prof. Decker: — We have this same trouble with over reading 

 or under reading. If a creamery wants to get a patron away 

 from its competitor, it will over read it. 



A Member : — Could the buttermaker be prevented from over 

 reading or under reading by legislation ? 



Mr. Gilfillan :— I doubt it.
