MILK FOR CHEESE-MAKING
NEW SYSTEM OF PAYMENT PRODUCING CAPACITY BASIS -[by telegraph—press association] NEW PLYMOUTH. Thursday A new system of payment for milk for cheese-making is to be tried by the Rahotn Dairy Company for a year. It is described as a method, not of payment for fat plui casein, but payment for butter-fat on its cheese-producing capacity, which is determined by the ratio of casein to the fat in the milk. Mr. P. 0, Veale, scientist at the Hawera dairy laboratory, in conjunction with which the payment will 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 quality milk, which would make a greater quantity <?f cheese, was entitled to a greater return.
