PAYMENT FOR MILK
NEW SYSTEM ADOPTED (Pur Press Association.) ■ HAWERA, last night. A new method of payment for milk for cheese making is to be tried by the Kahotw Dairy Company for a year. It is described as not a method of payment for fat plus casein, but ot payment for butter-fat on its cheese-pro-ducing capacity, which is determined by the ratio of casein to the fat in tho milk. ~ Mr. Vonlc, scientist at the Hawera dairy laboratory, in conjunction with which the payment is to be arrived at, says that, at present, ■ payment was made to suppliers for tat, but- it was not fat that the company Sold. The farmer who supplied quality milk, which would make a greater quantity of cheese, was'entitled to a greater return. '
