MILK FOR CHEESE-MAKING
A NEW SYSTEM OF PAYMENT BUTTERFAT CAPACITY New Plymouth, July 29. A new system of payment for milk for cheese-making is to be tried by the Bahotu Dairy Company for the year. It is described as not a method of payment for fat pin- casein, but payment for butterfat on its cheese-producing capacity, which is determined by the ratio of easein to fat in the milk. Mr P. 0. Veale, scientist at the Hawera dairy laboratory, in conjunction with which the payment is to be arrived at, said that at present payment was made to suppliers for fat, but it was not fat that the company sold. The farmer who supplied the quality of milk which would make the greater quantity of cheese was entitled to a greater return.
