JAMES  BAKER,  .  EASTON.  MD. 
The  terms  "butter”  and  “butterfat” 
are  always  confusing  to  one  who  does 
not  understand  the  meaning  of  each  one. 
Butterfat  is  the  pure  fat  or  oil  found  in 
milk  and  its  products,  and  is  the  chief 
constituent  of  butter,  as  shown  in  the 
following : 
AVERAGE  COMPOSITION  OF  BUTTER, 
Fat  . . 84% 
Water  . 12.73% 
Curd  . .  1:3% 
Salt  and  Ash .  1.97% 
Tn  studying  the  above  analysis  it  is 
obvious  that  •■butter”  and  ‘‘buttt'rfal” 
arc  not  one  and  the  same  thing,  and  that 
when  cream  containing  a  pound  of  but¬ 
terfat  is  churned  more  than  a  pound  of 
butter  will  be  made.  Ordinarily  we  say 
that  one  pound  of  butterfat  will  make 
one  and  one-sixth  pounds  of  butter.  This 
one-sixth  of  a  pound  is  termed  surplus 
or  overrun.  The  amount  of  overrun  ob¬ 
tainable  from  a  certain  amount  of  cream 
containing  a  certain  per  cent,  of  butter- 
fat  depends  on  the  amount  of  butterfat 
lost  during  churning  due  to  spilling  of 
cream,  loss  of  faC  in  the  buttermilk,  etc., 
and  to  the  amount  of  water,  curd  and 
salt  which  the  butter  is  made  to  con¬ 
tain.  Two  per  cent,  salt  in  butter  usual¬ 
ly  suits  the  trade.  The  curd  content  is 
always  about  one  per  cent.  This  leaves 
the  moisture  content  as  the  factor  which 
can  vary,  and  which  largely  determines 
our  overrun.  The  law  allows  15.9  per 
cent,  moisture  in  butter. 
The  butter  maker  depends  largely  upon 
the  overrun  to  pay  running  expenses  and 
his  profits.  The  pounds  overrun  is  found 
by  subtracting  the  amount  of  butterfat 
which  went  to  make  a  batch  of  butter 
from  the  butter  itsidf.  The  per  cent,  of 
overrun  is  found  by  dividing  the  pounds 
overrun  by  the  pounds  butterfat  which 
went  into  malting  the  butter. 
Problem  1.  Forty  pounds  of  cream, 
testing  30%  butterfat  made  14^  lbs.  of 
butter.  Find  the  overrun  and  per  cent, 
overrun? 
40  multiplied  by  .30  equals  12  lbs.  but¬ 
terfat  in  40  lbs.  30%  cream. 
14.5  minus  12  equals  2.5  lbs.  overrun. 
2.5  divided  by  12  equals  20.8%  over- 
run. 
Problem  2.  A  proprietary  creamery 
makes  in  one  year  500.000  pounds  of  but¬ 
ter,  securing  an  average  overrun  of  20%. 
An  average  price  of  38  cents  per  pound 
is  paid  for  butterfat,  and  the  butter  is 
sold  for  38  Cents  per  pound.  Did  the 
overrun  yield  the  owner  any  profit;  if 
so,  how  much? 
500,000  divided  by  1.20  equals  4 1 0, - 
000.(1  lbs.  fat. 
410,000.0  multiplied  by  .38  equals 
.8158.333.33  paid  for  fat. 
500.000  multiplied  by  .00  equals  $30.- 
000  cost  of  making. 
$158,333.33  plus  $30,000  equals  $188,- 
333.33  total  expense. 
500,000  multiplied  by  .38  equals  $190,- 
000  receipts  from  butter. 
$190, 000  minus  $188,333.33  equals  $1,- 
666.67  profit  to  owner.

Worms 
I  have  a  horse  20  years  old  infested 
with  pin  worms.  Have  given  the  animal 
several  injections  of  catechu,  followed  by 
a  physic,  and  while  the  treatment  has 
given  some  relief  it  has  not  removed  the 
cause  of  trouble  by  any  means.  The 
horse  naturally  is  in  poor  flesh,  hut  has 
a  ravenous-  appetite.  Will  you  kindly 
give  me  your  treatment  for  this  trouble 
and  also  inform  me  as  to  whether  it 
should  lie  followed  by  any  special  kind  of 
feed?  I  am  feeding  at  present  ground 
corn  and  oats  (sold  at  tin*  mill  ns  horse 
feed),  with  clover  and  Timothy  hay. 
New  York.  w.  j.  s. 
Pin  worms  do  not  cause  ravenous  appe¬ 
tite.  They  inhabit  the  rectum  and  only 
cause  itching.  Intestinal  worms  may  he 
present,  and  one  of  the  causes  of  indiges¬ 
tion.  but  the.  ground  feed  may  be  mostly 
to  blante.  Feed  whole  oats,  wheat  bran 
and  the  best  of  hay.  (rive  rectal  injec¬ 
tions  for  pin  worms,  as  advised  in  another 
answer,  and  in  the  feed  night  and  morn¬ 
ing  for  a  week  mix  a  fahlespoonful  of  a 
mixture  of  equal  parts  of  salt,  sulphur 
and  dried  sulphate  of  iron,  then  skip  10 
days  and  repeat  the  treatment.  A.  s.  A.
