else my grandmother would turn over in her grave and my par ents would never speak to me if we meet in heaven i recall the stories grandmother used to tell making butter in her farm district of wicklow ireland and as i recall it it is no wonder the english graded certain quality from ireland as axle grease if it was a little above the wagon- grease grade hut still not acceptable for table use it was often dumped into bakery and confectionery goods where its flavour woul be masked by sugar and flavorings this refers to irish butter only and the reason why this was so is revealed by mr sam alcorn formerly associated with the rt hon sir horace plunkett who inaugurated cooperative dairying in ireland the irish grazing lands are green nearly the whole year and the grass is of such quality that it provides ideal fodder for cream producing the danes on the other hand were handicapped by swampy land and in ferior pasture the cattle which were about the ugliest beasts i had ever seen were haltered in rows and instead of mov ing about naturally to graze they were fed beet pulp a byproduct of the beet sugar factories at that time and it may be so today the cows were kept on the farm just us long as their cream graded well in tact the whole object of the danish dairy farm was to obtain superior cream- but they didnt sell whole milk for human consumption or any thing else although they had the sweetest grassland the most natural food for cream producing in the world the irish lagged behind sadly in their ideas of sanitation and proper condi tions to be maintained foi manufac turing butter says air alcorn each farm churned its own butter from whole milk using an oldfash ioned dasher churn the english used cream only skimming the cream from the pans of milk but not the irish some of them would set the milk pans under the beds in their small and often dirty thatched cott ages this was supposed to bo for safekeeping while the milk soured or ripened and was intended to keep the dirt out of it but quite often a pig was kept in the corner of the room as the milk was churned into butter the product of each churning was packed into wooden cask but there was seldom enom butter to fill the cask with the output of one churning it often took five or six seslons with the dasher until the woman of the house had a full butter cask to send to market and you can imagine what the state of the origin al layer of butter must have been on market day generally held once a week the butter buyers would come around thrust an auger clean to the bottom of the cask and with draw plug of butter which showed each separate churning from the top to the bottom if the total result was too bad the merchants mixed the whole hatch up and exported it to england as a result the english got the feeling and nobody could blame them that irish butter was just too uncertain so they turned to den mark for butter hello homemakers i dont know where the time has gone today maybe
