CHEESE FACTORY MEETING.

At a meeting OF the farmers OF Lyon
county, Kansas, held at the court houses
Jan. 4th, 1876, for the purpose Of estab-
fishing q cheese factory In or near Empo-
ria, the meeting was called to order by
electing A. A. Hickox chairman, and Nj.
Stubs secretary.
Evan Langstzf, Of MAhOning county,
Ohio, addressed the audience, and gave
in q concise manner the advantages gain
ed by manufacturing cheese; also, a de-
scriptiOn OF the working Of such factories
In the Eastern States, and from his OBJ SER
vatiOns believed, taking climate, cheap
Dasturage and other things into consider
alton, 1t could be manufactured to better
advantage here than there. Mr.. white
~, being called on, compared the adyan-
tages this country had over Northern
New York, where In q cold climate and
poor soil, farmers have become wealthy
and independent by making and selling
milk and cheese; had never known o man
who followed this business to apply for
Aid from others. The income is net great
for one day, but it lasts for seven days in
the week, and In the end counts up. He
was for farmers to sell their milk to the
manufacturer. The other to form q COM
pany and elect three directors, and they
q secretary and treasurer, patron rating
incorporation to the number OF cow he may
furnish. The directors to have charge of
selling, etc. The manufacturer weighs
and keeps an account of each patrons
milk, and after paying all expenses the
profits are divided among those who fur
nished the milk. He believed the latter
plan the most successful all things con.
sidered. There is great difference in
milking cows; you may strip, strip, strip,
until the cows get into the habit OF not
giving down their milk-cows are like
men, get into bad habits. Milk them
clean at once. Am satisfied that = far
mer can make more from ten cows than he
can from as many acres OF corn as one
man can cuItivate-if you don't believe
me try 1t.
On motion the chairman appointed q
committee Of four, OF which he shall be
one, to canvass the county and see how
many cows can be relied on TO furnish
milk for u factory to be established at or
near Emporia, said committee to report
on Friday the It'll, at II meeting to be held
here. Names Of committee-E. Killer
