FROM THE PRACTICAL VIEWPOINT 



a bottle form from a single sheet of heavy paper. 

 Others have been made of heavy waxed paper, 

 through which the cream was visible. Some have 

 had straight parallel sides. They have been made 

 round and square; have been filled from the top, 

 and have been filled from the bottom, but the suc- 

 cess which has attended them has not been very 

 marked, especially in the East. There are some 

 firms in the western part of the country where 

 their use has been rather extensive and where they 

 are said to be satisfactory. 



The objections to their use has been 1st, the 

 expense. They are more costly than are glass 

 bottles, when it is considered that the glass bottle 

 is used repeatedly, while the paper one is used 

 but once. 



2nd. Many of them are not strong enough to 

 endure the heavy icing and rough handling to 

 which they are subjected. 



3rd. Customers have been accustomed to seeing 

 the cream in the bottle, and object to bottles where 

 the cream is out of sight. 



4th. The constantly increasing cost of paper 

 renders it questionable whether the equipment for 

 .using paper bottles may not prove to be available
