 The deterioration in the butter made irom nnpaateuriied cream it almoat thri><- 
 timea-aa irreat aa that made from paateuriied cream. 
 
 Tlie tendency of paateuriaing is to prodnoe a mild flaroor. Many consumers i]<> 
 not like batter of thia character. They prefer butter with a more pronounced last*. 
 bat the reaoorinffrahow that the butter with thia mild flavour ahom leas deterioration 
 in storage than the butters with a higher or more pronounced flaTour, and the creamer> - 
 men and butter dealers will do well to note thia fact 
 
 Butter made from cream pasteurized at a tempnafure of 160 degreea and heltl 
 for from ten to twraty minutes, haa kept its flaTour equally as wdl as that made from 
 cream heated to 190 degrees and held. It must be remembered, howerer, that thiro 
 is no waar of oomparing the flavours of the cream uaed in the different sami^e^ and for 
 this reason it would seem good policy to use the higher temperature.

 oolonr either immediately or within half a minute's time after the addition of the 
 reagents, then iChas been previously heated to the "border line." If the sample 
 remains white or develops a very pale violet-red tone by the addition of the reagents, 
 then it has been heated to a teipperature sufficiently high to destroy or to render 
 inactive the peroxidase ferment 
 
 In reporting the Storch Tests in this oontest, three torms were adopted: "No 
 Beaction " (N.B.) when the sample remained white; a " Light Reaction " (LS.) wheii 
 the sample turned a light grey colour; and a "Strong Eeaction" (S.R.) when the 
 sample turned a d^'h blue colour. 
 
 The following brief statement shows the value of the test in relation to the keeping 
 quality of the butter. 
 
 One hundred and thirty samples gave "No Beaction," and at the last rescore 
 eight of these samples, or 6-07 per cent, were placed in "Off Grade" for flavour; the 
 churning records indicate that five of the eight samples were made from cream in 
 which the acid had been neutralized, and two were made from unitasteurixed cream 
 and no record as to the acidity or condition of the cream was given. It has been 
 found that a very high acidity on the cream will affect the Storch Test results. 
 
 Thirty-one samples gave a "Xight Reaction," and at the last rescore eleven of 
 these samites, or 36 -6 per cent were placed in "Off Grade" for flavour. 
 
 Twenty samples gave a " Strong Beaction." and at the last rescore 60 per cent 
 were placed in "Off Grade" for flavour. 
 
 These results would indicate that the iStorch Test is a fairly reliable test to 
 show the keeping quality of butter, and can be used to very great advantage in com- 
 morcial grading. 
 
 8TANDABD TYI>f: OF BUTTEB. 
 
 The type of butter that pleased the scorers best, and in fact everybody else who 
 saw the samples, was that which came out on the trier like a piece of wax and showed 
 little or no moisture on the butter or on the back of the trier. The texture was firm, 
 close and smooth. At one tune this style of texture would have been considered over- 
 worked, but it is a very desirable quality at the present time. The colour was even, 
 and about a straw shade. This type of butter when salted to suit the requirements 
 of the different markets will, we believe, please the most critical buyer of butter. 
 
 TBXTUBE. 
 
 Many of the samples were brittle or short in texture, the butter had the appear- 
 ance of being churned at too high a temperature, coming soft, and then washed with 
 very cold water. It was thought at one time that brittle texture in butter made from 
 pasteurized cream was due to churning the cream too soon after pasteurizing, or before 
 the fat had been cooled sufBciently, but a brittle texture was found in butter made 
 from cream which was eooled to 46 degrees and held for fifteen hours before churning 
 at a temperature of 52 degrees. A careful study of the churning recortk for the 11)19 
 contest fails to show any definite cause for brittle texture. The butter from the 
 Maritime Provinces is inclined to be open and loose in texture; more working would 
 improve it. A close, smooth, waxy texture is what is desired. 
 
 UCHSTDBB. 
 
 In view of the fact that the law in reference to the water content of butter is 
 being enforced, it is important that the creamerymen pay close attention to this 
 particular point, but in addition to the proper amount of moisture in the butter, it is 
 important that the moisture be properly incorporated. When the moisture shows in 
 large drc^ in the butter, or on the trier, it is considered leaky or -as having too much

 Note.— ^In working out the above points, it was considered advisable to leave out 
 the scores for salting. There are very wide variations in the quantities of salt 
 required for the different local markets, and as some of the creameries make butter 
 for local markets only, the salt in some of the samples was too high for export trade 
 and the samples were scored down accordingly.

 A HEALTHY RIVALRY BETWEEN THE PROVINCES- 
 
 A good Stiff competition will bring out the best that is in a man, and although 
 here are no re^ds offered in this scoring contest th. , is considerlwe honour to 
 those who wm the highest standing. The fact that th .n who makes the buttS 
 knows It w,l be placed alongside of samples from evez. ..rovince in the Dominion 
 should stimulate him to do his finest work, and when we get the best men in Sch 
 province doing their best we will certainly get a com^rison of the vei^ S 
 methods of manufacturing creamery butter. 
 
 DAIRY EDUCATIONAL WORK. 
 
 r ■ S^ ^T^ °^ effective dairy educational work is shown in the quality of the 
 flm.hed products. Although only four creameries from each province competed they 
 will, to a greater or less extent, reflect the character of the work which is being done in 
 
 nutJZ t^tr^TT"^ '" *^^ ^'""VT^ ""^ *^« ^"'"^ authorities will do well to 
 note the methods which were practiced by the successful competitors
