B5 milk or cream, the proportion becomes nearly 80 per cent. The remainder of the milk is converted into butter or cheese on the farms or sold as cream, the separated or skimmed milk being nearly all consumed on the farms. The quantity of butter estimated to have been made on farms in England and Wales in 1924-25 was 569,000 owt. and of cheese 502,000 cwt. On the assumption that 2%* gallons of milk are required to make 1 1b. of butter, and 1 gallon of milk for 1 1b. of cheese, the quantities of milk represented by the butter and cheese made on farms are 166 million and 56 million gallons respectively. About 20 per cent. of the butter made and 4 per cent. of the cheese appears to be consumed by the producers and their households. In addition to butter and cheese, sales of cream amounted to 2,600,000 quarts, representing about 6% million gallons of milk on the assumption that 10 gallons of milk Are required to produce an average of 1 gallon of cream. In the next table are shown the figures of production and sales of milk and dairy produce as estimated from the returns made by producers.
