This churn (Fig. 250) is in general use in Pennsylvania, particu- hirly near Philadeljihia, and is often called the Philadelphia revolving churn. It is used more or less all over the country, especially in small factories or dairies having light power, and is made by several of the best- known American manufacturers of dairy ap- paratus. The " Queen of the Dairy " is the name given a revolving box churn (Fig. 251) made by Gardner B. Weeks, of Syracuse, New York. It is made for factory use, in gangs of two, three, and four, â which may be used sej)arately or all thrown into one com- partment. The churn is admir- ably balanced, and even the large sizes may be turned by the hand-crank. This three-gang size will make 400 lbs. of Imtter at once. Price complete, 75 dollars. The butter-makers of Orange County, New York, still largely use the old-time barrel churn with the vertical dasher. In large dairies and factories two or more of these are made into a gang, to which any convenient power is attached,. BLANLHiBD ClLINDRK VL CH I".
