IMPORTANT To FARMERS.-A meet
ing of the farmers of this vicinity, and all
others interested in the propos ton made to
start a cheese factory in this city the COM
ing season, is called at Woodland & Holls
Hall, on the West Side, Thursday Eext, Feb
goth, at one o'clock in the afternoon. Mr.
Faville, of Lake Mills, President of the
Northwestern Dairymen's Association, and
others. will be present and address the meet
ng, setting forth the advantages to the
armers in having cheese factory estab
iished here This is matter of vital inn
portance to this city and the surrounding
country, and we trust there will be large
number of our citizens and farmers present.
No better point than this presents itself in
this state for a Oh 4ese factor-, and the
erection of ore here would no doubt
prove source oflarge profit to all concerned.
The proposition should meet with the con-
sideration that it deserves, and we hope to
see lively intere st manifested on the SUBJ
iect by the farmers of this vicinity. Let
there be full meeting so that a proper ex-
preston may be had as to the feelings Of
this community in the matter.
