Test plan in gathered-cream work.—After a few years' work with the gauge plan of pay- ing for cream we adopted tlie test plan, using the oil-test churn to decide the butter value of the cream. This proved to be quite reliable and accurate. The greatest trouble we encountered was to make the cream gatherers realize the neces- sity of care in se- curing the sample of cream to be tested.
