Pierce Butler (Irish Politician, Born 1922)
Pierce Butler (1 September 1922 – 20 February 1999) was a creamery manager and Fine Gael politician from County Tipperary in Ireland. He was a senator from 1969 to 1982. Butler was born in Waterford in 1922, the son of the trade unionist John Butler, who later served as a Labour Party TD and Senator. He moved to County Tipperary to become an assistant manager of Mitchelstown Creamery, and lived in Cahir, where he became active in a number of local organisations, including Macra na Feirme, and the Cahir Credit union.

Creamery
A creamery is a place where milk and cream are processed and where butter and cheese is produced. Cream is separated from whole milk; pasteurization is done to the skimmed milk and cream separately. Whole milk for sale has had some cream returned to the skimmed milk. The creamery is the source of butter from a dairy. Cream is an emulsion of fat-in-water; the process of churning causes a phase inversion to butter which is an emulsion of water-in-fat. Excess liquid as buttermilk is drained off in the process. Modern creameries are automatically controlled industries, but the traditional creamery needed skilled workers. Traditional tools included the butter churn and Scotch hands. The term "creamery is sometimes used in retail trade as a place to buy milk products such as yogurt and ice cream. Under the banner of a creamery one might find a store also stocking pies and cakes or even a coffeehouse with confectionery. See also * List of cheesemakers * List of dairy products ...
