STATEMENT OF WILLIAM K. COLL. 



The butter (5 lbs.) which I enter for premium is madfe 

 from the milk of two grade Jersey cows, as follows : 

 Milk set in pans in cellar; after 36 hours skimmed, and 

 cream churned once a week. As soon as the butter 

 comes it is washed with cold water, then rinsed again 

 and is immediately worked over, and put up in packages 

 for market or for the table. Salted about 1 oz. to a pound 

 of butter. No coloring matter was used on this butter. 



One of the cows had 1 qt. of meal and 1 qt. of shorts 

 per day : the other none. They were fed some corn fod- 

 der night and" morning, and had the run of a poor pasture.
