are planning to make thr-- grades. One
city Institution haa already adopted this
method and la putting out what it calls
a premium or first grade. Only about
100 pounda of thla 'quality la now made

The price of the premium butter la 40

Tha word premium applies hare on
butter because dreameries now pay 1
