Un dee symboles suivants apparaitra sur la derniAre image de cheque microfiche, selon le cas: le symbols — ^ signifie "A SUIVRE". le symbole V signifie "FIN". Maps, plates, charts, etc., may be filmed at different reduction ratios. Those too large to be entirely included in one exposure are filmed beginning in the upper left hand corner, left to right and top to bonom, as many frames as required.

The time may const! when lesjal standards of quality HHogniziiig dilferent grades within the species, may lie justifie seriously considered, it would still be necessary to fix a minimum for fat in the article. The present report shows that only 3 samples out of 64 sold as cream, contain less than 15i)ercentof fat. Twenty-nine samples reported in Bulletin 121, show an average of 22 ■ 76 jier cent tat, with only one sample below 16 per jeiit. On the other hand, V.'i jier cent of these two collections (totalling 93 samples), show more than 20 per cent of butter fat in the article sold as cream. The standard for cream established by the United States Department of Agri- culture, (Circular 1!), of June 26, 1906), is 18 per cent fat.

It is pretty well known that a number of articles called Cream tkicktiiers are on iIl(> market. These are intended to be added to cream for the purpise of giving it an .i{j|ii>ariknce of greater density and richness than it really possesses. Oelatine is a con.s- Miiicnt of most of them; but calcium sucnite (Hucrate of lime) gum tragacanth and '.tlicr substances are often present. Some of the Cream samples of this collection were < xainined for 'thickeners', and evidence of gelatine was quite definitely found in 4 -ini|ilcs ; while reactior * sutficiently clear to justify a declaration of trace of gelatine «rrc obtained with 9 other samples. Evidently the cream priKlucers of Canada are not above suspicion of employing 'ill se I'litirely dishonourable methods of giving a fraudulent appearance of richness to : ill' article. This mivle of fraud is particularly harmful in cases whem a Dairy Com- I' iiiv, counts among its patrons, a few who are guilty of the use of tbickeaers. It may i" ill" aim of such company to supply honest cream ; but, by intermixing ignorantly, I lew gallons of tho sophisticated article, a whole day's output may be contaminated. ' It I Murse, in such case, the co:npany must b.; held responsible, should adulteration l>a •I tcctcd. It is quite true that the guilty patron of such a company could not possibly i)> any advinta'.;e to hirasulf, provided that his cream was sold on its fat content ; I It ait^nts inteiiisied in the sale of these ' cream thickeners ', have been known to .so I lisn'present them, as to lead the purchaser to believe that his cream was actually im- tiiv. rj by their use. The only safeguard which a Diiry Company can have, is the I'lii'dical testing of its cream for these thickeners. On our next collectiim of cream, I shall see that a .systematic examinatiim for I i.uii tliickciiers is miuic. I U'g to recommend the publication of this report as Bulletin No. IU9.
