CREAM GRADING.
SUBMISSION OF RETURNS.
(By Telegraph.—Parliamentary Reporter.)
WELLINGTON", this day,
The Government does not propose to take steps to cause dairy factories to furnish returns of all cream graded and purchased, giving details of weight, or provide that suppliers be paid 011 the manufactured output of each factory.
In advising Mr. D. S. Reid (Coalition Reform, Raglan) to this effect in the House yesterday, the Minister of Agriculture, Mr. Macmillan, stated that adoption of the suggestion would mean that each grade of cream would require to be churned separately. While that would be practicable in some of the largest creameries, it would be irksome in smaller creameries, where there might be difficulty in getting sufficient cream of the lowest grade for churning. The question of making payment as per pound of butter instead of as per pound oS butterfat had received consideration, but -it was not believed that sufficient advantages would result from the change Ito make it worth while.
