Special Letter to the Globe.
FOUNTAIN, Mimi. Jan. 25.-Just now
this particular section is agitated over
the question of creamery or no cream
cry. True, there are such institutions
round about us, but they are charged
with various offenses too numerous to
mention. and no longer to be en-
dured. Not being accustomed to
the ''butter factories" [ can neither
praise or condemn, but what little ex-
perience Eve had with them has not in

slightest degree. In fact, prefer the
cheese factories on the cooperative
plan as being more remunerative, and
giving greater satisfaction in the long
run. and of the making of butter at
home when the season is over for the
making of cheese. and butter has adj
vanced in price. and the farmereSS thinks
she will
MAKE BUTTER PAY THE BEST.
And she does! Some talked the mat
ter over, and one man was detailed to
write to the now Gov. Hoard, who at
once entered into the scheme most en-
Enthusiastically and did all he could do to
help our farmers along in the scheme,
but when it came to getting the milk to
the cheese factory the whole thing fell
fiat. 1t was out of the question,
and getting the COWS MIXED and
the milk taken away. There
was no time for that, and the cheese
factory dropped out of hearing, and the
creamery men, have had it all their
own way since, and the farmers have
gone on with growi and grumble ever
since, until now they are again aroused
to action, and 1--WE shall see what we
shall see'' in this new move of the
farmers here. In time, the Scan

will find out their strength,
and will join with the right party, and
then the question of money-making in
the dairy business will be made mani
fest, without so many interested in the
shipping of all the money into the pock-
cts of the manufacturers instead of
their own. The farmers have not
studied the milk business up until they
know the money in it, and the difference
between the butter and cheese factories.

THE CREAMERY
now talked of here, may be good in
vestment on the plan proposed, and if
carried out rightly will be a great help
to the farmers. but may not be any
more remuneratiye than other cream
cries have been IN the past. 1t may
make the surrounding butter factories
see the error Of the past and CON-
pei them to be more generous with
their patrons and treat them all alike
when dealing with them. At present
there is much dissatisfaction among the
farmers, and they will hardly rest until
they have worked the problem out and
see something more for their dairy pro-
ducts than has been apparent for some
time past in the money value they have
received. The past two or three
weeks of agitation of the subject
will be an excellent thing to stir up the
blood in the farmers veins and set them
to thinking seriously of the past, and
they will learn some things that will.

will work out their own salvation IN
time, or am very much mistaken in
the intelligence l have given them the
credit of possessing.
