The Nashville, Chattanooga & st.

cursionist," giving descriptions of the
summer resorts, schools, colleges, and
universities on the lines of this popu-
lar favorite of the travelling public.

publication speaks well for the enter
prise of the N. c. & st. L. Railway
management.

Those who have not visited the
building recently can have but little
idea of the vast amount of work
which has been done and is being
done at the C. F. College. Pleasing
transformations have been going on
there for six weeks under the indus
triOus strokes of a little army of brick
layers, plasterers, painters, paper hang
ers and carpenters. The work is being
pushed as rapidly as possible, and DIR.
Ritchey, the manager, hopes to have
everything in readiness for the open
ing on the first Monday in Septem-
Der.
The most cleverly designed and
best executed campaign picture we
have seen, is large Autograph just
published by Siegel, Cooper & Co.,
Chicago, Ill. If contains large por-
traits of Cleveland and Thurman,
with smaller ones of Washington,
Jefferson and Jackson. In the cen.
ter of the sheet is the Democratic
National platform, and the whole
surrounded by wreath with As
Stars, giving the names and number
of electoral votes of the 80 states, AND
the names of 10 territories and the
, District of Columbia. 1t will bt
mailed to any address by the publish
ers for so cents.
We took occasion to visit thu
creamery one morning last week, ant
watched the process of converting
: milk into butter and cheese will
much interest. The creamery is nov
receiving an average of 900 pounds o
milk per day, which is scarcely one
fourth of its capacity. From thu
milk now received there is manu-
featured 80 lbs of butter and A
! lbs of cheese. A good quantity of tn,
= skim milk is sold back to the patron
l at one cent per gallon, and quite {
quantity of butter-milk is sold at
: cents per gallon. The butter is ship
: ped to MOnteagle, Chattanooga anC
e other points. Our home market ha
taken up all the cheese which tn
+ creamery has turned out so far. Tn
q whey from the cheese making is feC
t to pigs. This is all the food they re
g ceive, and they fatten rapidly on il
o Any one who will visit the creamer,
q and see the quantity of impure matte
q taken from the milk by the separate
y will be convinced that creamery but
ter is pWer than the home-mad
!, article. So far as we could learn tn
:, patrons of the creamery are well salts
fed, and while the price paid for mil
! seems rather low, they find it NOR
:. profitable than to make and markt
. butter themselves at Is to 20 cent
. per pound, or even higher price;
!, We believe there is money in tn
creamery to farmers, and every on
who lives near enough to town to d.
y liver milk to it should give it q fai
b and impartial trial.
