influence of the size of globules upon the character of milk, their

There appears to be a general relation between the relative 
number of fat globules and the creaming and churning efficiency, 
the milk containing the fewer number being more efficient for 
butter-making. In regard to the relative size of the fat globules, 
the larger the size, the more efficient the creaming and churning, 
which we see is borne out in a general way by the foregoing num- 
bers, though modified in some cases by other factors. 
GENERAL SUMMARY OF ReEsvuLtTs RELATING TO BUTTER-PRODUCTION 
OF DIFFERENT BREEDS. 
The more important results that have been presented in the 
foregoing tables are summarized in the table presented below. As 
previously stated, these results are not complete, and they must 
not be regarded as conclusive. Following this summary, we 
present tables containing data pertaining to the averages of each 
breed, and, finally, tables containing the records of the various 
individuals of each breed. Since only one Holstein (Esel 2nd) is 
considered in the averages for herds, her average at present con- 
stitutes the herd average, and is not repeated. So, no Holstein 
herd average appears. |
