CONDITIONS OF THE DAIR1 INDUSTRY.

This report shows a larg-er amount of creamery butter made in the State than ever before reponed for an} y(•ar since such reports have been made. Over 82,000,000 pounds of creamcl) made butter are shown to have been manufactured in this State for the year ending July 1, 1905, and the make of butter since that period has been phenomenal in amount. Not only is the amount of butter 'cry high, but the price ob­ tained for it is higher than the average price for any year since 1893. At the average price for the twel\'c months rnding July I , 1905, the New York value of the creamel)• butter made in this state was in • ~xcess of $2o,ooo,ooo, nearly $5,000,000 mon· than the value for the next pre­ ceding twelve months. Since 1900, the number of creameries in :his State has been stead­ ily decreasing, so that now we have 65 5 creameries and skim stations, whereas in 1900 the list showed 994· It mu<;t be understood, however, that there has not at any time been any corresponding dccrea-;e in the dairy business of the State, or the amount or value of the butter made. There have been, before this year, considerable dl'creases in the amount of butter made, but the causes of the decrt'asr have been easily pointed out. A critical comparison of the amount'> of butter made in the dif­ ferent counties and different parts of tht Sum, will show that there has been a considerable increac.e in the la.-;t year in the northern and north­ eastern part of the stat~ usually dc.-.ignatecl the dairy districts; but the largest amount of increast; of creamer} rnade butter has been in the southern half of the State. This part of the State, with the ex­ ception of a few counties, has never been knc..v. n as a dai>y M:Ction at all, and until the introduction of the hand '><'parator and the practice of shipping cream to large central churning stations, the dairy business of the southern half of the State was veT}' <.mall.

But there are plenty of places in the State where cents under New York, and sometimes four cents under the market. successful creameries of another kind are already established, and where Of course, a general statement of this kind does not include the prices also the central cre:uncr[e::. have their purchasing agents for cream. that have been paid by certain centralizing plants in localitirs where There are se\ eraI facts ' hich ought to be recognized in regard to the competition r-equired a very high price in order to get any husiness, centralization of cream for butter making. One of them is the ques­ because in some cases prices above New York have been paid for butter tion c f e'perhe of the plan. L nder the head of "Iowa :\l anufactures, fat and the accusation has been freely made that this was for the Dairy Products Second," follo\\ ing, some figures bearing on this subject purpose, and with the effect of closing up the local creamerr. are gi' en and will repay ~orne study. Under the almost universal For a good many years the dairy commissioner and the professors practice now, the cream sh:pping creamery pays its local agent one cent a of dairying at the college and a very large number of other persons pound for butt<.'r f~t purc.Jra,ed and the freight on the butter fat is about interested in making the most out of the dairy business of the State have one cent a pound for butter fat in addition. So that the farmer has to pay used every effort to induce f:trmers to take better care of their milk about two cents a pound to get his butter fat to the creamery after and cream to the end that better butter might be made to be sold for he ha;; taken it to the shipping station. That is to sar the larger a higher price. Progr<"'S in the proper direction has always been entirely plant is handicapped at the start by two cents of expense more than too slow to satisfy the dairy enthusiast. With the advent of the hand attaches to the creamery that receives its cream direct from the wagon separator, it was discovered that the quality of cream delivered was of the patron. much below the quality of milk delivered, and that the quality of butter made \yas actually deteriorating, and with the beginning of the cream , 10 NINETEENTH -'NNUAL REPORT OF THE STATE DAIRY COMMISSIONER. 11 shipping system the quality of cream has still further deteriorated, for would not onlr be practical, but would, to a large extent, enforce itself. the reason, as already pointed out, that the cream does not reach the The buttermaker, or creamer} manager, would not rake chances against buttermaker as soon as it did under other systems, and hence the a law which would cause him to suffer a fine of $25 or $ roo and he greater the deterioration.

Hence, the farmer, instead of having an induce­ forcement, would very greatly increase the quality of the butter made in ment for producing high-class cream, is actually encouraged by the the State, would protect the public from being imposed upon by butter situation to careless practices in the handling of his product. It is not made from unwholesome cream, and would add to the profits of the practicable for the local creamery to reject his cream, because then he dairy farmers a very considerable amount. can ship it to the central plants. Up to the present, the cream has nearly all been paid for at the same price, regardless of its quality of WHAT THE FAR:\1ER SHOULD RECEIVE FOR HIS BUTTER FAT. cleanliness or wholesomeness. Practically the only grading of cream, as now practiced, is based on the percentage of butter fat, a less price It is true that creameries vary great!} in size, efficiency of manage­ being paid for low testing cream.

Not only would this be true must pay he will have I .2 pounds of butter which on a 20-cent with the man who now produces second grade stuff, but the same facts market will sell for 24 cents, not taking account of the premmm. would be an inducement to the man who is now producing good cream, The expense will be because, under the present system, he gets no more for the good cream Factory expense...... l. 5 cents Freight ...... • ...... 1.

A chemical analysis in the hands of a competent chemist is the only way to g~t an ab~Hlutely accurate estimate of the constituents of a sample of butter, but of course the expense prohibits the smaller creameries from making use of such a system. But approximate results are suf­ fici('nt in every day work and extremely valuable to the creamery operator. The question of overrun is of the greatest importance from the standpoint of values and should receive more attention at the hands of the buttermaL::ers and creamery operators.

PRE~1IU:\1S ON BUTTER.

During the last ten years there has grown up the practice of paying a creamery more than the published and established official price in all of the markets. A half a cent premium used to be the cause of great pride on the part of the buttermakers whose butter sold for that pre­ mium. Now a full cent premium is almost universal, a cent and a half is common, and a cent and three-quarters or even t\\'O cents above the market is not by any means unknown. Seconds and firsts sell at the published price of extra<: and above, and the real extras nearly 16 NINETEENTH ANNUAL REPORT OF THE 1 STATE DAIRY COMMISSIONER. 17 -!. t: "tl ..
