movable tanks. The hard substance is subjected to a hydraulic
pressure of 350 tons, and the oil extracted. The butter is made from
the oil thus obtained, while the hard substance remaining is disposed

milk and from three to five per cent of dairy butter. It is then drawn
off in a consistent form, and cooled with broken ice. The latter is
soon removed, and the butter worked up with a small portion of salt.
