Extract

A review of published work emphasizes the existence of a fundamental relationship between the quantity of milk and butterfat per cent. This general relationship may be stated thus: as the quantity of milk increases, the quantity of fat increases also, but at a slower rate. Therefore, the fat per cent, or concentration, falls as the volume of milk increases.
