TUS OR BOX? Measons In Favor of Using the Australlan Butter Box Package. “I believe the box isa much more desirable package than the tub for both the jobber and the retailer as well as the creameryiman,’’ writes George D. Mansfield in Chicago Produce. ‘‘The jobber has the following difficultios to contend with in handling tubs: He fre- quently finds that notwithstanding his shipper delivered the tubs to the rail- road with five hoops om every tub, cov- ers on every tub intact and securely fas- tened, the butter solid and neatly cov- ered with cloth and salt, the condition of the shipment on arrival to consignee is bad. Some tubs have one bottom hoop missing. One or more tubs have both bottom hoops gone and bottom of tub out. Several tubs have covers com- pletely smashed on account of having been spilled off a depot track or from severe jolt ¢ ioned from the train engineer's care] the air- When the « *h the but- ter is loaded dces not contain even tiers if tabs and even h ti {ne Css uu Oa ar ink Wil : brake. } ‘ | +-y +1 au vas 4 uguoust tare ‘ar, these tubs with smashed covers will have displaced cloths on top, but- ter will be mussed and dirty, and the neat, tidy appearance which the ship- ment bed on stcrting bas chapged tc a very discourcgiug ciie ‘*Now, kad this shipment of butter been packed in square bcxes made from the same kind of \ las the tub, or any other wood as strong, it would bave stood the same knocking about and not have been injured, neither the packages nor the butter. Another ad- vantage to the jobber would be in tho matter of weights and tares. These boxes can be made large enough to al- low just a given weight to be packed in each box at all the year. There being no cloth and salt to contend with and no soakage of package, the matter of settling weights would ap- parently be very easily adjusted. Fifty- six and a half pounds to the bax would be an advisable weight, since the pack- age should hold out 56 pounds and would be suitable for export to th English market, they calling for 56 pounds, which is half an English hun- dredweight. ‘‘We use a whitewocod box three- quarters of an inch in thickness, grooved three-quarters of inch wide and one- quarter of an inch deep three times across each surface of the box two ways. This grooving thus allows free circula- tion up and down and across the pile of boxes when stored. ‘* Advantages to the retailer would be that his butter would come to him free from rust spots where the nails g through the sides of the tub in tacking on cover fasteners. The package would always be lined, top, bottom and sides, witb the best and heaviest parchment paper lining and no salt on top to get mext to the butter, thus causing aslight waste in scraping it off. The square cube of butter can be stripped out of the package and be wired in Weights required, thus deali the consumer a neat, sightly butter instead of a mass of shaves and crumbs, as are seasons of any sized out t& ump ol uneven ) alle 1 } usually dealt out by digging butter out of a tub. ‘* As for advantages to creamery men, I can see they are numerons. ‘‘First.—The first cost of the box should be less than the tub since it re- quires no very highly skilled rr t saw out four square pieces of board that will pail together and be a finished package so iar as lumber goes. i can always freighted, knock dowa, and where sb ped in small lots the Vantage Im sa ing of freight over tubs is more one-half. ‘“‘Third.—Tkere are no hoops to get lost or broken in transit, and only the top in bundle t§ Qo na The hnx wHecond, -— 4 oe VOACS acd and bottom board each | can become very much soiled by coming in contact with the coal dust on the floor of car that the freight house man failed to have swept the car. ‘*Fourth.—Thcre will be no tubs to dry out and full to picces while carry- ing the package stock. ‘“Fifth.— When you get ready to pack your butter, the box needs no soak- ing; therefore you will have no occa- sion to use profane language abont the supply man who sold you tubs that zo out of shape when soaked so you can- not get the covers on. I simply wax the inside of the box with dairy wax, and it is ready ior the lining, and then the butter parchment linings should always be well saturated with salt brine to avoid mold. We soak box linings over night. ‘*Sixth.— When you have packed 5614 pounds of dry butter into the box, you | cum fe el pretty well assured that when | your returns conie in for the shipment you will not be one to two pounds sbort in weight on each package caused from excessive tares.’’ Ax O_p Axp Wet Trirp Remepy.— Mrs. Wiuslow’s Soothing Svrup has been used for over fifty vears by millions of mothers for their children witle teething t soothes the child softens the guins, allays all pain,. cures wind colic, and is the best remedy for Diarrbuwa.
