Dakota in soil and climate has all the ad-
vantages Of Wisconsin. II only remains fol
US to use our advantages. Eastern dairy
lands sell for $50 to $50 and 800 per acre
and the dailyman there has from three Ia
five times the capital invested for the like
result. ln some cases the milk is there
sold by the pound at the facto.y-in others

on sale. The obstacles In the way of the
profitable production OF cheese in Dakota

Clean, unadulte, ated milk ia a profitable
merchandise. We can cite instances of
cows having paid an average of 500 per
head, for the entire dairy, in a single season,
where the milk is manufactured into factory
cheese. 1t is safe, generally to expect the
COW to pay for herself each season. The
dairy products are low this year and vet
