SEVEN UNFIT FACTORIES. _ Interesting report on cheese makii made by .he instructor for this m dim At the recent convention of dairyroe held at Ottawa, Belles port: ) pre snted the follow I take pleasure in presenting to you my eighth annual report as instriicto'-at cheese factories fir the dairymen's association of eastesn Ontario. The district assigned to me was in former years namely, part of East. West and North Hastings, Prince Ed ward, and part of Northumberland counties. This is called the Belleville section and is I believe one of the oldest dairy sections in Canada. The first cheese factory was built in 1867, and the first cheese board inaugurated in 1882. I commenced my duties on the 3rd of May, and completed my work or December 15. I received application from 66 factories for instruction and inspection and have classed them as follows: as first class; 17 as second class; 31 third class, and 7 as totally unfit for manufacture of first-class cheese. Regarding the cheesemakers, I can assure you we have a large number of first cla«s men in my section, but why we have some of these carele is indifferent fellows that go about their work dressed in an untidy man a mystery to me, and they are times bold enough to refuse milk not in a proper condition for the manu facture of firet-class cheese, but I be lieve their time is limited. Only one of the, factories that I visit pays by quality, and you will all agree with me that this is the right and proper way. Regarding the disposal of whey, 57 of the number of factories visited, return the whey home ip the milk cans the balance is fed at the factory. The water supply for three of these factories for washing utensils, was very impure,caused by bad floors and improper drainage. In all cases where I found defects such as bad water, poor whey tanks, and bad drainage, I called upon the directors and in every case but one, they were set right. This was a factory owned by a j vate individual, I called on the owi and he stated he had not the time remedy this year, but would see that everything was in good running order another year. After our conversation I called on the cheesemaker and he stated that he would notify the manufacturer in writing that he would not under these conditions be responsible for the quality of the cheese. This, I believe, brought the remedy. Tho improper washing of milk cans gave mo more trouble this year than all the deteriorated milk that I found. There are a number of patrons that are very careless and indifferent in this matter. The quaality of the milk and cheese was far superior the past season than any previous year, no doubt the favorable season had a great deal to do WOMEM'S ILLS.

I suffered greatly and the periods were very irregular, but thanks to these pills I am now quite well and free from the pains that made my life almost a burden.

There was 32 children and grand-children, one brother and one widowed sister. SCHOOL BOARD. vith it I examined all the milk delivered with the Lactometer and all suspicious samples with the Babcock test and found fifteen patrons that were deteriorating their milk. Ele ven of these paid hues to the factory to the amount of $252, the remainder settled with the officers of the factories. The amount contributed for my services from factorymen was $403, making a total to the association of $529. In conclusion, 1 am giateful to all those who have assisted me in the work, but before concluding my report, I strongly advise all cheesemakers to take a course at tne dairy school, also join the dairy association, attend all conventions and profit by whatever suggestions maybe offered.
