Making Butter for the Navy 
The best is certainly none too good for 
our men in service. The government 
readily sees this fact, and is this year 
attempting the task of supplying the boys 
in the Navy with the best grade of butter 
it is possible to make. That the Army 
should also have this butter is unques¬ 
tionable, but the problem of supplying it 
could not be tackled this year. It is re¬ 
ported that about O.oOO.OOO pounds is to 
be made for the Navy, and that about 90 
creameries and 60 inspectors are engaged 
in the work. The majority of the cream¬ 
eries are located in Minnesota, Iowa and 
California. The work started in May and 
June, and will continue through the grass 
season. 
REQUIREirE.\T.S OF NaVY BftTEK. —A 
part of the butter that is being made is 
put directly into storage in tubs, while a 
part of it is packed into 5-lb. round tins, 
and these tins are sealed and packed SO 
to the case before they are stored. The 
upper limit for moisture and salt con¬ 
tent for the tubbed butter is 14 per cent 
and 0.25 per cent, respectively. For the 
tinned butter the moisture content must 
not be above 13.5 per cent. The salt 
cream. So much sour cream is delivered 
to the creameries dui’ing this season that 
it is practically impossible for a gathered 
cream creamery to make the quality Te- 
quired. 
Duties of the Inspector. —'An in¬ 
spector is appointed to see that the 
above-mentioned requirements are en¬ 
forced. He has charge of from one to 
three creameries, depending on transpor¬ 
tation facilities and size of creameries. 
The writer has two creameries about two 
miles apart. The daily trip is made in 
his car. xlt the start the inspector must 
first work with the cream supply, making 
acid tests and explaining to the patrons 
the need of bringing sweet cream. At 
one of the creameries in charge of the 
writer the cream tested .32 per cent the 
date of his arrival. In a week’s time 
this was down to .2 per cent or less. An 
acid test must bo made on the cretim each 
day. After the butter is made the in¬ 
spector makes a moisture and salt test, 
and helps the buttermaker in any way 
possible to have the butter come within 
the requirements. Very few churnings 
have to be rejected after the work is 
well nudor way. The inspector then

test is the same as for the tub butter. 
The butter must score either 94 or 95 
points, and this score is determined by 
the per cent of acid in the cream. In 
order for the butter to score 95 points 
the cream must contain not more than 
.234 per cent acid, and it cannot contain 
more than .27 per cent acid if it is to 
score 94. The cream has to be p,asteurized 
at 145 degrees F. for 25 minutes. The 
creameries receive 2% cents above out¬ 
side New York quotations for the 14 
per cent moisture butter that scores 95, 
and 14 cent less for that that scores 94. 
The 13.5 per cent moisture butter is 
beiug obtained in two different ways. A 
few large whole milk creameries have 
taken large contracts to tin the butter 
direct at the creameries. The price they 
j receive for this butter is determined by 
a bid which is submitted before the con¬ 
tract is awarded. Many other cream¬ 
eries are putting this class of butter into 
tubs and sending it to a commission house 
in New Y’ork that has a large Navy butter 
contract. The butter is tinned from the 
tubs in New York. The creameries get 
three cents above top quotations for but¬ 
ter so supplied if it scores 95, and 2% 
cents if it scores 94. The price is based 
on the market during the week when the 
butter was made and not upon date of 
arrival. 
Keeping Quai.ity. —Experiments have 
proved conclu-sively that butter made 
from pasteurized sweet cream churned 
without ripening keeps the best in stor¬ 
age. This butter will, of course, be used 
from the time when it is made until the 
next grass season, hence the need of but¬ 
ter of good keeping quality. The cream¬ 
eries that are in a position to make this 
butter are comparatively few. Prac¬ 
tically all of the creameries engaged in 
this work get their hntterfat in the form 
of whole milk or part milk and part 
stamps the covers and sides of the tubs 
with such information as the score, the 
churn number, date and net weight. The 
creameries are paid on the basis of their 
own weights when the butter is packed. 
This gives the creamery an advantage of 
about a pound to the tub over selling it 
through the ordinary channels. The tub 
butter is packed in paraffined tubs, and 
there is practically no loss by shrinkage. 
The inspectors are hired by and the work 
is under the direction of the Dairy Di¬ 
vision, United States Department of 
Agriculture, and the Navy Department 
foots the bill. 
The making of this butter is proving 
an excellent thing for the creameries, and 
permanent improvement in the quality of 
their output is sure to be the result. The 
boys in the Navy will surely be pleased 
at the quality of the butter that will be 
served to them, ii. f. judkins. 
Pigs. Patriotism and Profit. —This

C. Minkler, who has written on live 
stock problems for The R. N.-Y. Prof.

volume is to bring the facts about pig 
culture together in a pocket volume and 
in such plain and easy language that 
anyone can understand what it is all 
about. We do not recall any
