EFFECT OF LAND CRESS ON CREAM
Among the subjects discussed at the annual meeting of the Shannon Dairy Company on Saturday afternoon was the important question of land cress flavour appearing in the cream received by the factory. This has a decidedly detrimental effect on the butter produced from the cream, and a consequent lower price'return. It appears that farmers will have to do something to try and eradicate this weed from their farm pastures. The factory is taking all necessary steps but the pest presents a serious problem and up to the present time the agricultural scientists are unable to give the industry any remedy.
