Hershey, Chickies. Jehn I. Carter was introduced te the so ciety by Vice President Engle, who occu pied the chair, and after a few preliminary remarks read the following address : Creameries. The subject assigned te me, te Write upon te-day, had te be accepted with some little latitude, because I have very little experience with the practical workings of creameries, proper a creamery, meaning a butter and skim milk cheese factory and further, I thought a wider range given te the subject, embracing ether classes of dairy product manufactories, and. various systems of cream raising might be equally interesting and instructive. The manufacture of butter and cheese, etc , in one establishment of tb.3 milk of a number of dairies, is ce'rtainly an advance ever the old plan, of every dairyman mak ing his own butler. The farmer, making but 25 te 50 pounds per week, cannot afford that complete equipment necessary in an establishment making 1,000 te 1,500 pounds. With thesa better facilities, a better article is made, and one much mere regular iu quality than if made in the SO or 30 different lets by the farmers them selves. The opportunities for effecting geed sales and securing a steady market are greatly increased when large quantitiej are te be disposed of, and better terms of shipmeur, and iu fact, all advantages are enhanced by having a large amount of products te dispose of iu ene transaction. The testimony of our marketmen shows that there has been a rapid advance in the average value of our butter product, sinca the advent of the creamery .system iu Eastern Pennsylvania. Creamery or fas tery butter has a quotable price, whereas the butter made iu small dairies is tey uncertain both in quality and price, much of it sellinsr below the coat of production. 'PI.. lil-a i,t rriflitet-inn rif imit-.fYfr.inri lint.. I iu. "w "" -- - r ztiyi ter from suet ana oleomargarine, ..ufM very greatly ueprcciaieu iuu pricu e,-W chenn butters, anil the creameries CMM very opportunely, offering an eupefct the milk of these unprentiess aatriee. v Butter making by iurmers has also been unsatisfactory from the uncertainty of prices te be realized ; nothing but the vaguest el guesses as te the probable price from one week te another. This uncertainty intimidated f.irmeis from stocking with cows, that could have judiciously used up their surplus provend er. Creameries and butter lactenes have mero regularity as te prices. Tliey cau give a pretty definite idea of the probable average price of milk for a year or ler 5 he varying seasons. This enables the farmer te inake calcu latiens of probable profit, and he cau safely decide hew he shall stock his farm. Fer instance in my factory, which is only a butter factory, I find the average price for milk during the year, reckoning it every two weeks, te be 3j cents per quart or $1.33 per "hundred pounds. Seme creameries may return mere thau that, but I presume it is a fair average. It will vary a little with different years, but net mere than the price of ether stapje farm products. A farmer having a milk dairy can speedily turn it into some ether line of farming should anything occur te make a chanze desirable ". Cows are a merchant- able article, at any time or condition. There can be no less en dairy appliances, for but little is invested in them. Per haps one of the most serious items of expense for the farmers te consider before going into the milk business is the hauling. Twe and a half miles is quite far enough for the farmer te haul, or safe for the creamery te teceive. Te be sure it is sometimes drawn much farther, but the circumstances should be favorable, such as geed reads, a cheap driver and te points where there are also shops, mills, peit office, etc., where the daily visit would de ether errands. Such distant farmers should also have a suitable place te cool and keep the evening's milk ever night as very lit tle tainting wiJUpeil it for any purpose. These remarksbneg me te the location of creameries they should be near some public place, accessible by geed roads reads situated en seme stream, with water power, eratleast with plenty el water. Water is a geed abserbant of odors, as well as a cleanser, and milk refuse is a very offen sive thing. Ice is a necessity also and is expensive te haul. They should be sit -uated iu a geed farming district, where geed pasture and pure water will insure sound milk. There must be cows enough, present or prospective, within a radius of 2J miles, loBuppert it. It will net be safe te calculate en many farmers making a specialty of dairying. Mixed farming will probably be the rule in Eastern Penusyl vania for many years yet. The dair.es will probably run from 5 te 25 cows. A co-operative creamery possesses some advantages. Less individual capital is required, and the milk patrons, if stock holders, are interested in keeping up a geed supply of milk and its quality, and would net be se tempted te water it. On the ether hand creameries or factor ie?, run by individual enterprise are likely te hare conflict of counsel and troubles of management. An exclusive owner will be likely te give it his fullest attention ; te act with mere promptness and te carry out effectively a settled line" of policy. A geed price paid will mostly bring geed milk, whether the dairymen is a stock holder or net. But all factories suffer mere or less from adnl erated milk. Taking all together 1 rather favor the plan of individual enterprise. Whatever plan is adopted, it should be born iu mind that from tbe nature of things, the business is limited in extent, and there can'be no great bonanza in Jtaa a specu lation. Fer reasons given before,";the area ofMppttfcJiatfted would, afford a yield of .mere than 1,500 te 2,000 pounds of butter per .week, or its equivalent of butter and cheese, i A mar gin of 4 te 5 cents per pound move the cost of the milk is considered a reasonable profit for a butter factory. -This lees net include the value of skimmed mUk. As this advance is te cover the cost m labor, running expenses, and interest aJ less en investment, it is easy te see th the in. vestment in buildings and Bplianees should net be tee great if .apBsenable profit is expected. And this brings me te the ejusidera- tien of the kind of a factory. Wi have in our vicinity three kiuds: bu&er and cheese : butter and curd, and butter and hess. Butter and cheese factories, j r what are usually called creameries, are he most popular. If they are well loci judiciously run, and are fort , "uu i.i ate in having a geed cheese-maker, tiiey aie doubtless the most profitable. Te make a well-managed skim milk cheese, is perhaps the best use that skim milk can be put te. The product is healthy, palatable, and prentaMe. But it is almost a science te makeihem se. Many failures have occurred among cream, eries from the employment of Unskilled cheese-makers. . " , Expensive appliances as well as skilled labor are required te run a creamery pre fitably. An outlay or ?u,uue te 8,000 will be needed.and the equipment is rather perishable. The routine of their manage ment is se well known that a:datailed description would be superfluous. l Butter and curd factories are few, as the market for the curd is somewhat limited They are equiped semewhat like a butter and cheese factory, JTnty. without the? presses and cheese rooms?' ' "i-4 They takeailthe cream outef the milk and clabber 'the skim milk, by heat or otherwise, which is broken and drained of its wbey,semewbat like cheese cured. This smear-case is branded and shipped te a factory iu Philadelphia, where it is made into Dutch hand cheese, weighing from one te two pounds. The curd brings two cents per pound less freight. One hun dred pounds of milk will make at this time of the year about 3 pounds of butter and 8 lb3. of curd. The whey is asa weitU mere thau creamery whey, as it contains the buttermilk. Cieameries usually U3e their buttermilk te' give body te their cheese. A simple butter factory can be a much cheaper establishment. Less room is needed and the outlay for appliances need net exceed $1,000 or $1, 500. Still less labor is required of course, than in either of the ether kind of facto ries. A man and boy can make 1,000 te 1,500 pounds of butter per week, r.nd only employ half their time. The perk iu this case stands against the curd and the skim cheese. Hogs will net only grew but fatten en bkim milk alone, particularly during warm weather. Under favorable circumstances they will gain from 2 te 2 pounds gross per day. It is net judicious te feed a hog tee long en an exclusive milk diet. I prefer te buy shoats, weigh ing 50 te 75 pounds, and feed until they weigh 250 pounds, at which weight they are sold. A hog will drink from 3 te 4 gallons per day and should be fed four times at least. An occasional feed of meal or bran is needed as a corrective te a deposition te costiveness. In connection with our factory 1 keep abeutaQO head e hes. changing them off three mouths. This is dem milk, from t nds of fester. is snini It was butter akers. uur avaerage-et spue jpa peunu f butter for the wBelrveannill quarts. This was tee much, arid-fclHs -brihgs me te tin best plans for raising cream ter extri cating fat from milk. TheVeld fashioned shallow pan is very seldom used -in factor ies. Creameries use large, deep vessels, arranged for rapid cooling with ice. The object being te get a portion of cream off before the milk turns, else its value for cheese is lessened. Many different patents are used,all hav.ng the same object in view. Seme factories tried undrgreuud air-ducts, proposing te cool the milk with told air but the plan proved inefficient ai?d expen sive Simple butter factories nasally use spring water as the cooling mednm, with the small deep cooling can, op otter water bath pan. The latest and perhaps the best cream raiser is the centrifugal creamer ; a late Danish invention new being manufactured and introduced by the Philadelphia cream ery supply.e'empany of that city. I have had one of these maehines in operation a few weeks, and am confident it will take out 10 per cent, mere fat or butter than my annual average, which was a fair one. Tliis "will be a large item te butter factories where the aim is te take out all the butter tbey can. JTet only is mere butter taken out, but the eream is in excellent condition for butler, ice cream or any purpose whatever. The new milk just from the cow is run through the machine, thus avoiding any risk from exposure te tastes or odors, while settliug in the milk room waiting for the cream te rai&e. It gives perfeet control of the cream, as you can churn at auy stage of ripeness, from perfeet sweetness te bitter sour. Accidental impurities in the milk have less time te injure the whole mass, as the cream is separated mero rapidly and all dirt or sediment thoroughly sepa rated from the milk and cream. A large proportion of the space new required for settling the three milkings can be served as the milk runs through the machine as delivered at the factory. Se far we have discovered no injury te the grain of the butter, en the contrary, the quality is vgry geed and regular. The machine consists of a horizontally revolving cylinder twenty-five inches "in- diameter and 18 inches deep, holding, when running about 30 quarts. It rnns at a speed of 2,000 revolutions per minute. It is fed by a half inch pipp, delivering the milk at the bot tom of the cylinder, with outlet pipes for eream and skim-milk. It requires abeat a 3 horse power te drive it, hut se far shows ue signs of giving our, notwithstanding its great speed. We run through 1,000 pounds of milk per hour, and are new able te make a pound of butter from 23 pounds of factory milk. I should net wonder if it revolu tionized butter-making te some extent. It will at least place butter faoteries en a par with ercamerie3. They cannot make their eheesa mueh poorer with-safety te its quality. While the gain. the butter factory of 10 per cent.' butter will add largely te its preflt.B.s .re length- ened this paper much intended close the limits, you. will excuse subject abruptly. Questions , In closing his address he would be pleased te Carter said . , r any ques- tiens that might be askei relative te the subject he had been! ssiug. Jeseph F. Witmer askest ether it was the custom at creameries "'te pay a higher price te farmers for the neBflnlk of Jersey and Guernsey cows, than for Ihe peer milk of common cows. Mr. Carter answered that JMl milk that comes te the creamery is rated with a Icatemeter by.wbieh its butteW and eheese making, properties-can be pretty correctly testea. wnen'tae miuc-nejpveiew a g ties; a titer deeliite WAke it and ,i - . , -j- v i - "v bsdv fcpnne-ssim he a&cmj&MmmmKKtm 9afiB&'aBBBE'r3?"9HBBBBBBysM: emfmBmm9t.m0mmsmm imivtws"3vjp9awjim BQ kS uut KBd SHUW AMw?.i35rSISi w. c .r ..;2?&-V.tf ether questions Mr. Carter said the aver age price received for batter made at his creamery daring the past year was 41 .cents per pound, less the freight The skim mine after the butter has been sep arated from it makes a very pleasant bev erage, mucn Dener he thinks than ordina ry skim milk, being light and foamy, owing te the rapid motion te which it is subjected in separating the milk from the batter. The machine of which khe had been speaking would chum 140 pounds of muslin 15 minutes. Mr. Carter explained at seine length the mode of separating the milk and cream. Be added that any geed agricultural neighborhood would be benefited by having creameries in its midst. The cheese made from all skim milk is pleasant te the taste and whole some, and there will be always a geed local demand for it ; but being bulky and low priced, and liable in warm weather te spoil it cannot be profitably shipped te a great distance. He thought batter factories might be profitably placed every two and a-half or three miles apart in a well settled agricultural . neighborhood, and pay the farmer better than by mak ing his butter at home. It would give the farmer a chance te increase the num ber of his stock, and thus enable him the better te keep up the fertility of h'is land. H. M. Engle asked what was the com parative value of cottonseed meal and linseed meal. Mr. Carter replied that he had net had much experience in its nse. Some contended that cottonseed improved the quality of the butter while ethers say it deteriorates it. Darlington Bres., of West Chester, who sell their butter at an average of 90 cents per pound the year round, feed cottonseed by mixing it with an equal quantity of clever hay, cut fine and made wet." It is probable that a great deal depends upon the judicious feeding. Te feed tee much meal would make fat but net milk. G. W. Paxon said that cottonseed prop erly fed would increase the flew of milk aud improve the flavor of the butter. His brother bad successfully used it by feeding te each cow one quart per day a pint at a time mixed with ether feed Jehn C. Linville had seen it stated that the feeding of cotton seed was apt te affect the cows with garget. He asked whether the feeding et ensilage affected the quality of the milk. Mr. Carter answered that it did net if judiciously used. David M. Eyre said that he did net like cottonseed as well as linseed for butter making cows, as it affects both the color and quality of the butter. Te make geed buttter, geed clean whitewashed stables are necessary, with big troughs 18 inches wide and two feet high. Then ycu want geed Jersey or Guernsey ce?js that will make 12 pounds of butter per week, aud they must be given the closest attention, both as te feeding and te cleanliness. He feeds morning and evening four parti of com chop in the car, four parts et shorts and one part of linseed ; and at neon gives them as much hay as they want. During the past vear he had kept 11 cows and bad sold $1,030 worth of butter and cream, be sides giving his family of 11 peisens all tbey wanted. His cows had eaten 500 worth of fee J, aud he considered the manure made by them as sufficient pay for the labor. He considered the net profits about $30 per week. All depends en what you put into the cow. Rich feed aud careful attention are necessary te make them profitable. The day for keeping peer stock lias passed. Guernsey or Jersey cattle arc the best, and he likes the Guern sey beltei than the Jer&ey. S. P. Eby doubled the utility of feeding corn chop with the cobs ground in with the coin ; there is no nutriment iuthe cob, and he thought it would be better te shell and grind the corn and use the cob for fuel. Mr. Eyre replied that he would net feed the cob te steers that were te be fattened, but he is sure the cob chop is geed for milk cows. Mr. Carter held the same view, but would net grind the cob late in the season, as it then dries out and becomes very hard. C. L. Hunsecker had been a miller and did net like te grind cobs, but he had found out that the corn and cob ground together make geed feed for cows ; and, considering the millions of cattle in the country, the millions of capital invested iu them, it became a matter of the great est pecuniary importance te the farmer te secure the best and cheapest of feed, se that the quality of the Dutter and the price obtained for it may be correspond ingly high. A great proportion of the butter made is of inferior quality. Of seven exhibits recently shown at Balti more, five were tainted with garlic. Cew3 fed en swill also yield tainted butter. Give the cows geed sweet fodder, geed clever hay, geed clean water and geed stabling and they will yield geed butter. Mr. Engle said he was much pleased with the geed attendance at the meeting, with Mr. Carter's excellent address, and with the discussion that had followed it. lie hoped the agitation of this -important subject would yield geed results. On motion et Jehnsen Miller a vote of thanks was tendered Mr. Carter. Talk Abeuc a Fair. Calvin Cooper, from the committee ap pointed te wait en Mr? B. J. McGrann, said he had seen that gentleman and had some talk with him relative te leasing the McGrann park and buildings for the pur pose of holding a county fair. He bad also corresponded with Mr. Seiler, secretary of the state society, with a view of having the state fair at McGrann' s park. Phila delphia is the first choice of the state society and Lancaster second choice. Mr. McGrann appeared te be willing te de all be can for both the state and oeunty society. At Mr. Cooper's suggestion the committee was continued te report fur ther at next meeting. Mr. Witmer, Mr. Engle and ethers urged members te de all they can te have the state fair held iu Lancaster. Essay en Fertilizer. Mr. G. W. Paxson te whom had biten referred the question : " What is the most profitable fertilizer home made manure, clever, or commercial fertili zers ?" read an interesting paper in which he discussed -ftssfir several advantages and disadvantages. ratine their merit in the order In whicV they, are above named giving first place te Heme-made manure and second toelover. 4- discussion ensued as te the proper quantity et cover seed te sew en an acre of ground. Messrs. Cooper and Witmer favored 8 quarts, while Messrs. Linville and flash thought six quarts sufficient. . ust of Small Fruits for Farmers . Henry M.

Mr. Engle read a circular from the see retaryefa convention of delegates from the several agricultural societies of the state held in Harrisburg en the 28th ul timo, in which it was stated that the pre ceedings naa Deen stenograpnieaily re ported and would be published if each society represented would contribute 15 towards the expense of publication. On motion the treasurer of the society was directed te subscribe $5. Levi S. Reist presented the society with "a plate of very fine Yerk Imperial apples; ine cnair announced that the next stated meeting of the society would be held en the second Monday of April in stead of the first. Business for Next Meeting;. The following questions were proposed for answer at next meeting : - " Has agriculture kept pace with ether industrial pursuits ?" Referred te G. W. Paxson. " Is it geed policy te turn the cows into the early grass before plowing for corn, and afterwards be compelled te restrict them te dry rations ? " "Is there any feasible plan for farmers te beard their hands ?" Referred te Cal vin Cooper. Adjourned.
