Collection of Evidence Which Has a Practical Beating on the Ques- tion--The Different Methods of . Ohéese Factories, The followi is a copy of the ad- Siw deliv by ro. L. A. Zu- t, superintendent the Kingston Dairy School, at the Dairy annie Ta vention, which contains a great 'deal of. valuable information for dairy- men." The address deals with a compari son 'of the different methods of div- iding the procveds for milk aticheese factories, and also deals with _ the mattér which Prof. Zufelt and Prof. H. H. Dean, of the Agricultural Col- lege, Guelph, had a lively tilt over at one of the sessions. Prof. Zufelt had his facts based 'on practical tests made, and he is ready to back wp his report with the strongest evi- dence . possible. RE The consensus of opinion 'at the i to be that Prof. the best of the argument. His remarks were loudly applauded. to the confusion and un- certainty which prevails in the mind of the average cheese factory patron, in regard to the proper method of paying for milk, due chiefly to the views, held by our leadiag dairy authorities, it was deemed ad- visable to collect further evidence, which would have a practical bear- ing on this question. and enable us to judge more fully the merits of the ~~ « {different methods so far advocated. At the present timgrwe have four methods of payment before the public each with more or less of » following, viz, "Pooling," 'Fat,' "Fat plus 2" and "Fat, plus Casein.." All our authorities, and the public generally, are agreed - that the "Pooling" me thod is the least accurate, and that either of the other three' are prefer able, if we could only agree as to which of these we consider the hest. In order to. be in a position to dis- viss intelligently the merits of these three methods 1. ses myself the fol. lowing tests : First--<As the fat and casein are the chief constituents of milk made use of in the manufacture of cheese, theo- retivally then, the iat and casin con- tent of milk is a fair measure of its cheese-making properties; but, lacking the means to quiekly and accurafely determine the pweentage of casin in milk covering the usual period of monthly tests, and as a method of calculating .the casein conient based on the nefcentage of fat has been advocated, we undertook to find out if 'there was any constant relation ex- isting between the fat and' the case in. . Second--Assuming. for the .sake of comparison, that the fat and casein content of milk was a fair measure o. ite value, to find out which of the other two. ("iat" and) "fat plus 2 methods) was the most accurate. " Third--By manufacturing milks of varying fat and casein, content into cheese, to determine which of the three methods came nearest to the actual weight of cheese made. 9) carrying out of this work, ar- rangements were made with the mak- ers of Sunbury and Elm Grove cheess factories, to save composite samples of the milk supplied by their patrons, which samples were subsequently test- ed for casein at the chemical labora: tory, at Queen's, and for fat at the dairy school. Charts presented give, in a tabulat- ed form, the result of this work, to- her with the comparative values ol the individual milks, estimated by the three s under discussion. In addition to the percenta of fat aul ganein, also have tabulated thé di per \100 pounds between the "fat" and "fat plus 2" methods, as compared with the "fat plus casein" , for * the various months for which tests were made. 'These tests represent the percentage of fat and casein in the milk for the entire month. : In examming the tests for both fae i i A iced, from the ex- treme variation of casein, in milks having the same fat content, that no constant relation exists between the in- dividual pa but on the contrary, the casein s a greater variation than does the fat. A further examination of these ta- bles will also indicate a partial an- swer to the second question which we understood to solve, viz: "Of the two methods of payment, 'fat' and 'iat plus 2,' which is the most accurate ? A careful examination of the table of differences' recorded in the last four columns, reveals the fact that for Sun: bury factory, both methods are equal, and for Elm Grove the "fat" method is slightly nearer correct than the "Tat plus 2" method of payment. It will also be observed that invari- ably the "iat" metlod of payment favors slightly the milk having a high fat content, whilst on the other hand "fat plus 27 gives the low testing milk a ter value than 1 really has. This is more fully brought out' in another table, which represents a summary of all the tests made' at the dairy school up to date. In compiling this table the aver- age was {aken of the casein corent of all the milks testing 3 per vent. fat, 3.2 per cent, and so .on up 10 {4 per cent., representing altogether, ferent 446 av samples.
