HOW TO TAKE THE TASTE OF TURNIPS OUT OF MILK.

Mil Kh\v\ki> L\kh, M.H.K, wntes to v-,, uwlei diiti', Wellington, September ."itli —I «end jou a inoile of leinoviiig the taste of turnips from milk for buttermaking in winter, that li.n pioved a practical success at a fiictoiy in Otago, and which I think may lu> useful in AV.uUato where turnips are 10 laigely grown, The ir'ilk should be slowly heateil up to 113 degrees (maximum) say fioiu !>0 to 1 15 degrees. The dairyman |jy piactice will find out for himself the exact degiec of heat that gives the greatest quantity of cream The heat requiicd will be different in different localities. The heat must be raised in exactly same way at for cheese-ma Ling. The reason for heating is stated by my informant to be, " When milk is put into a large shallow vat in cold weather the cicain rises rapidly, and prevents evaporation of animal nnd other odours. It becomes sealed as it were nnd the odours remain in it. When heat is applied the cream rises very slowly, the heat causes expansion, the cream cracks and the odours continue to fly off until thry are all evaporated. When the heating is stopped the milk cools down gradually and contracts at the same time. When cold the cream will Ijc 111 large wrinkles on the surface, which otherwise would be smooth. More cream is obtained this way than by cold setting.'' He also say* that a centiifug.il sepaiator wdl remove the smell and taste ofjturnipn, and believes the beat butter if obtained this way. But he continues : •' We have no separator ; we can make first-class butter by the heating process, and get a higher price for it in the market than other people do, no matter how many turnip* the cattle eat. We, however, cannot make good ehresc from turnip fed milk. We have to use the cooling process for cheese, and this does not tin ow the turnip taste off" The information was piorured foi me by Mr OJ. F. Kichnrd«on, of Mataura, from the manager of the Edendale factory, Otago, which lias, I belie\e, been a success.
