This statement is substantiated by an- alyzing the records kept by the A. and M. College Creamery, accord- ing to J. A. Clutter, professor of dairy husbandry. On April 1st the creamery paid out $1,551.43 for butter fat re- ceived during the month of March, and this money was distributed 0 forty-seven patrons; checks ranging from a few dollars in val- ue to over $230. Cream fat was bought at the rate of 40 cents per pound and milk fat at the rate of 85 cents per pound. While these prices compare favorably with commercial quotations over the state, they are not as high as they could be if the farmers of this community would extend their dairy operations from a seasonal basis to a yearly basis. In other words a creamery must fill or- ders throughout the year. In or- der to do this it must receive a fairly constant supply of cream from month to month. A majority of cows in this sec- tion calve in the spring, and are milked only during the grass sea- son. Because of this prectice the butter market is flooded during the spring months. Cows that calve in the fall produce approxi- mately 15 per cent more milk and fat than those that calve in the spring. The farmer has more time to devote to livestock during the winter months, and prices for but- ter fat are higher than in the sum- mer. With those facts in mind it is evident that a good market for local cream is available to the farmers of this section if they will raise their feed for winter consumption, milk cows through- out the year, and deliver a unif- orm supply of cream from season to season.
