. American dairying: a manual for butter and cheese makers. Dairying. Butter Makifig. 22S the larger ones become over churned and greasy by the excessive friction. Pressure operates upon large and small nearly alike, and the globules of different sizes come nearer together and more per- fectly, producing more and better butter. The devices for churning are very numerous. The one most extensively in use in this country is the old dash churn. It is also the hardest to operate ; but when properly constructed it does its work in the best manner. To do the best work they should be bar- rel shaped, having a moderate swell in the middle, and the dasher should be large enough to occupy three-quarters of the area of a horizontal section of the middle of the churn. The dasher should either be a complete circle or have f^s-js- the form of figure i^, the floats or wings being broad and whole instead of being narrow, notched and full of holes, as in figure 37. The large dasher as here figured, will require about once and a half as much power to operate it as the smaller and narrower one with its notches and holes, but it will give more and better butter and do its work in one-half the time, or in the same time at a few degrees lower temperature. The smaller the dasher the easier it works and the longer time it takes to bring the butter, and the poorer the butter. The more notches and corners and holes it contains, the more friction will it occasion, the more.
