WHAT CHEMISTRY HAS DONE FOR THE FARMER
As showing what chemistry has done for the dairy farmer during the past four years, it is interesting to note that in one factory, near Patea, no less than 2479 pounds of whey butter was made, which at the low estimate of Is per lb brought in over £1200 to the dairy farmer (says the Patea Press). Four years ago the extra butter-fat thus saved from the whey would in some*cases have been allowed to run into the nearest creek. Another innovation that has resulted in great gain to dairymen is the manufacture of cheese from milk that has been pasteurised beforehand. The result of this process has been that an increase as high as 5 per cent in the yield has been obtained.
