Difference Between Selling Milk and But- 
ter. — Fifteen quarts of milk to a pound of but- 
ter, is the common calculation, though in a large 
dairy, it is more likely to take more than less 
In one case, 700 quarts made 36 pounds, which 
is 19£ quarts to the pound. It sold for 25 els. a 
pound, making $9. The milk, at 2 cts. a quart, 
would be $14, which is the usual price that Or- 
ange-countv farmers set, we believe.
