DRIED MILK.
To (lie IvJitur. Kindly allow me to point out thai, the most profitable milk for Una .iranie is that containing solids, not fat, as the following o(li(?Sal figures show: A cow giving 10, DUO lbs annually with a X 5 test, produces the same amount of butter as the cow giving 7000 lbs, with a 5.0 test, but when these two cows' milk Koes to the factory, No. 1 produces 700 lbs and that of No. 2 cow 400 lbs dried milk, a difference of '2lO lbs, which at present prices, 180 a, is £ls a year in favor of the low testing high milker. Then with margarine at 6d (it is 'ls now) per lb butter is going to have a bad mil. People will never eat it at, say, :is per lb. Therefore rich milk for dairying is not going to pay, and it looks from the way that tiie new industry is catching on that .Jersey breed era are going to have a holiday. A book in course of publishing tells everything from A to Z about dried inilk, but the price is 335.—1 am, etp., W. It. WRIGHT. Raliotu, July 17.
