Concerning the belt method of churning

described^ above. The only objection, 1
think, which could be made to it would
be, that the cream gets too ojd, -but I
never had trouble yet In.that rtSpeet. It
some times oconred that the cream had
to be churned before beinv 48 hours old
on account of ice, supply naming short.
But where there is an ample supply of
ice the cream never spoils. During sum-
iner, I need 250—800 lbs. pf Fee per
week. And during the wintertime about
1Q0 lbs. per week. At present the price
for ice is 25c per 100-lbe.
