FIFTEENTH ANNUAL YEAR BOOK— PART VI 415 



We would recommend that in the case of bottled goods such 

 as cream, the word "Homogenized" or "Homogenized Process" 

 be added to the printing on the bottle caps which have already 

 printed thereon the name of the producer. In the case of ice 

 cream containers for those who use homogenized cream occasion- 

 ally we would suggest that printed slips, bearing the word, or 

 words, "Homogenized" or "Homogenized Process" ice cream and 

 the name of the manufacturer, similar in style to those used by 

 express companies in marking packages of goods, be pasted on 

 the packer in conspicuous place. For those using homogenized 

 or homogenized process cream continually in the manufacture of 

 ice cream, we would suggest that the words be stenciled on the 

 packer in a manner similar to that used in marking the brand or 

 the name of the manufacture of the product. 



"Wherever homogenized products are sold at retail, a printed 

 sign or signs shall be conspicuously displayed, giving the true 

 name of the product as herein specified, followed by the words, 

 'Used Here' or 'Sold Here.' All of said words shall be printed 

 on white cards, using black letters, not smaller than 72 point, heavy 

 face, Gothic caps (standard line). No other printed matter of any 

 kind shall appear on this card. 



Butter which is made from cream, which previous to its ripening 

 in the hands of the manufacturer, coidd not he used as sweet cream, 

 or butter, which at the time of its use does not score 93 or more, 

 shall not he used in manufacturing homogenized products." 



The Supreme Court of Iowa has sustained the validity of the 

 law requiring 12% of butter fat in ice cream. The law creating a 

 standard having been upheld, the course of this department is 

 made plain and manufactures and dealers should exercise care 

 to insure that ice cream handled by them is above the standard set 

 by the statute. 



OPPORTUNITIES FOR CONDENSERIES AND CHEESE 

 FACTORIES IN IOWA. 



The department believes in a greater Iowa. It not only believes 

 in it, but it is going to do what it can to make this state a more 

 desirable and attractive place in which to live, by bettering its 

 conditions and showing its opportunities.
