This trial reversed the decision at Lincoln, The tabular statement shows 
how nearly the machines were matched. Whitehead's machine had some 
advantage over the other in screening ; and on this account, more than from

In this trial the candidates found the cream to suit the dimensions of the 
churn. The whole was mixed together, and each received their allotted 
quantity. It is evident from this trial that proportionately more butter is 
produced from a small quantity of cream. This is an old doctrine, and there
