The donor, Don Beckett, worked in the dairy research field most of his life at Agriculture Canada, working with Dr. Doug Emmons first at the Dairy Technology Group, then at the Dairy Technology Research Institute followed by the Food Research Institute and Food Research Center. He co-authored several research articles during his career. Previous to this, he worked as an inspector of Dairy Products for the Federal Government for about one year in Montreal and Toronto, ca.1952, inspecting commercial and retailed dairy products -butter, cheese, ice cream, powdered milk, etc. Eastern Dairy School used to be the Dairy School. They moved to Kemptville, Ontario around 1937. Don Beckett studied in the Dairy course in Kemptville in 1946. His father, Noel Beckett, owned different creameries in his life. He might have studied in Kingston at the Eastern Dairy School. Le donateur a travaillé dans le domaine de la recherche laitière la majeure partie de sa vie à Agriculture Canada, avec le Dr Doug Emmons, d'abord au Dairy Technology Group, puis au Dairy Technology Research Institute, suivi par le Food Research Institute et le Food Research Center. Il a coécrit plusieurs articles de recherche au cours de sa carrière. Auparavant, il a travaillé comme inspecteur des produits laitiers pour le gouvernement fédéral pendant environ un an à Montréal et à Toronto, vers 1952, inspectant les produits laitiers commerciaux et de détail - beurre, fromage, crème glacée, lait en poudre, etc. L'Eastern Dairy School était auparavant l'école de laiterie. Elle a déménagé à Kemptville, en Ontario, vers 1937. Le donateur a suivi le cours de laiterie à Kemptville en 1946. Son père a possédé plusieurs crèmeries au cours de sa vie. Il a peut-être étudié à Kingston à l'Eastern Dairy School. - Function
-
Material used to wrap a quantity of butter to keep it longer. Matériau utilisé pour envelopper une quantité de beurre afin de le conserver plus longtemps. - Technical
-
Butter was kept in the past in linen cloth and put in a tub called firkin or in a butter crock. Paraffin paper began in the 1880s and 1890s as butter wrappers. Later, in the early 1980s, Dr. Douglas Emmons with Don Beckett, both working at the Food Research Centre at the central experimental farm (Agriculture Canada), did research that concluded that the paraffin let the UV light affect the butter by photo-oxidation both in flavour and appearance. Since then, a light-weight aluminium butter wrapper has been used in Canada to sale retail butter. Autrefois, le beurre était conservé dans une toile de lin et placé dans un bac appelé "firkin" ou dans un "butter crock". Le papier paraffiné a commencé à être utilisé dans les années 1880 et 1890 pour emballer le beurre. Plus tard, au début des années 1980, le Dr Douglas Emmons et Don Beckett, tous deux travaillant au Centre de recherche alimentaire de la ferme expérimentale centrale (Agriculture Canada), ont mené des recherches qui ont abouti à la conclusion que la paraffine laissait la lumière UV affecter le beurre par photo-oxydation, tant au niveau du goût que de l'apparence. Depuis lors, un emballage léger en aluminium est utilisé au Canada pour la vente du beurre au détail. - Area Notes
