As soon as you get cream cool it down to 40 or 50 degrees. Almost necesearv to use ice. Later warm it to 75 degrees. When butter is made in large quantities use a preparation called a "ferinenter" ?lactic term inter ?<> start the cream to souring. In thes climate you ought. f ' churn early in the moruMig. The milk ought to tie at about 54 degrees lor churning. The best churn is one without inside fixtt res. Stop churning when tne butter is in granular, the size between a kernel of corn.
