The Creamery.

Only few months since Blue Earth
County could boast of but n single
creamery, while to-day she has within
her confines no less than six or eight,
all of which are paying proprietors and
patrsns handsome returns for the labor
and expense. The establishment of
these creamcries has awakened an in
creased intcres st in the butter-making
and dairying developments of this To-
cality, and gradually yet positively and
permanently are our farmers coming to
realize that money can be made from
the products of II cow easier, surer and
oftener, than from any other source, and
an industry that can he increased at
will and in any and all seasons Of the
year.
There is nothing which convinces so
readily the untutored mind, and moth
ing which so speedily allays misappre-
tensions from lack of knOwled &C or un-
Outstanding, as verified figures, and to
demonstrate what we have oft times re-
peated and what those who have had
experience know to be true-that dairy
ing is protitable-we reproduce some
statements taken from the Sidney
QOwa) Union. The mode adopted by
all well-regulated creameries is to send
out teams and gather the cream each
evening, or morning, OF both, rs re-
quirements may exact, and this system
is conceded by all to he the most salts
factory to all concerned and decidedly
most profitable to patrons. Holt &
Hall, of Osceola, Iowa, who have had Il
creamery in successful operation for II
number of years, now pay out annually
Tor cream from $40. 900 to $4,000 per
annum. The following figures will prove
of interest to our many readers, and we
hope there may be profit gained through
the experience and demonstration of
others.

system over the old way of selling the
milk to cheese or butter factories may
be readily seen:
LIST. The saving of labor for man and
team in hauling milk to the factory.
Cd. Having the skinned milk left
on the farm for feeding purposes.
3d. The SKINNED milk being sweet
is worth at least IS per year more from
each COW.
18th. The advantages over making
the butter on the farm is still greater,
as all the labor OF churning, working
butter, ETC., is saved, besides getting
from a5 to so per cents more for the
cream than can he got for the butter
after il is made.

L. RAGIN'S STATEMENT,
and part of June

Taking the statement of Mr.. Ragin as
an illustration, and what is the result3
Mr.. Ragin delivered 1868 inches of
cream, for which he received 1851 "A, an
average of IL cents and a fraction per
inch. This vast amount of cream was
taken from the milk of II cows, part of
the time greater number being MIXED
and part of the time a less. Now,
how much did the cows make per head?
If II COWS made $35l.44 one COW would
make $20.8l. In the fall the calves
would be worth $l2 per head, amount
ing to $204, which added to- 1851 "A,
(received for creamy makes $555.44, the
sum made on II cows. So it pays to
raise cows and patronize the creamery.
