Mr. T. C Gerrard of Shellmouth will adopt grading for this season buying cream by grade. First-grade cream must test 30 percent butterfat or higher and be sweet and fresh. Second-grade cream is slightly sour, clean, flavored, and under 30 percent butterfat, at two cents per pound less than No. 4. Third-grade cream covers cream not good enough for second grade, with damaged or deteriorated cream priced two cents per pound less than No. 2.
