THE DIFFERENCE.

The failure of the lamented evapor-
ator enterprise here is proving quite a
detriment to the cause or the proposed
butter and cheese factory, and many
are refusing 10 take stock in the latter
because of said failure. They should
stop and think a moment. The two
factories are vastly different in charac-
ter. If a committee had been sent
out to investigate before the evaporat-
or was built they would probably
have found numerous plants of the
kind over the country idle three
fourths if not all the year and conse-
quently poor Investment. The evap-
orator was also poorly managed and
there was scarcely any market for its
product.
The butter and cheese factory is a
steady thing the year round and the
market for its product is never over
stocked. Who ever heard of the mar
kets being glutted with creamery but
ter? Nobody. On the contrary good
creamery butter brings 30 TO 80 cents
pound all the time in the large cities
and the demand for it cannot nearly
be supplied. A man in Vermont has
a herd of rs Jersey cows, furnishing
the milk for his private creamery, the
product of which he sells on contract
in Boston at 40 cents per pound the
year round. Other facts concerning
the profits of some of the eastern but
ter factories would astonish you as
much as the above probably does, but
they show conclusively that good but
ter, like goS1 gold, is sure to bring a
good price wherever it is.
All the western factories we have
heard of recently have been unable to
meet the demands made upon them
for butter and could sell their product
a month ahead if they wished to.
The establishment OF a butter and
cheese factory here would certainly be
one of the very best things, If not the
best, that could be thought of for the
farmer-unless it he a mint where sill

THE BUTTER FACTORY PROJECT.

AS per announcement q meeting
was held at the city hall last Saturday
afternoon In the interest of the butter
and cheese factory and to hear the re-
port of the committee sent away to
investigate. There was only fair at
tendance. After S. H. Jessup had
been chosen chairman and B. S. War
ner secretary Mr.. Talbot read the re-
port of the committee and commented
freely upon it, showing pretty conclu-
sively that there is a good deal OF
money in the milk and butter business
to all concerned If it is properly han
died. The report was published in
this paper a week ago, and we pre-
sumo our readers are familiar with it.
Mr.. Talbot's speech was followed by
earnest aud interesting talks by j. j.
Fribley, C. w. Daniels and Mr.. Bur-
ton. The question of securing cows
enough to run the institution was
brought up, and it was soon found
that from 1000 to 1900 cows could be
made accessible to the plant in the
country around Baxter and in the ter
ritory south, if the factory worked
and paid as well as represented. The
factory upon which the report of the
committee was based was operating
and clearing 81 per day on the milk
from 600 cows. II the factory here
could secure the milk from 1000 TO
1900 cows-and we believe it could
within six months after starting-it
could clear from $40 to SIS per day on
the milk and butter alone, besides a
large profit which would certainly ac-
crue from big pen of several hum
dred hogs fed almost wholly upon the
skim milk of the factory.
This is almost exclusively farmers
enterprise and for the farmers benefit,
as II would give him chance to have
a steady and reliable income aside
from the grsin ana other products of
the farm, and all persons who have
ever lived in dairy districts say the
patrons of it would be made almost
independent by it after year or two.
Several farmers and others signed
the contract and shares to the amount
Of $ll00 were subscribed for at the
meeting.

A meeting of the stockholders of the
Spring Branch Mining Go. was held
Tuesday evening with poor attend
ance. The secretary presented all &C
curate report Of the condition of the
company showing assets amounting to
$3.50 and liabilities of 1870. Work was
stopped over a week ago for want of
funds, but an effort is being made to re-
sumo it for short time at least. The
laboring men of the town have sub
scribed 81 days work, or enough to
work the shaft a week night and day,
provided the Capitalists of the city,
who, by the way, have exhibited an as
tonishing amount of apathy in this
matter, can afford 10 pay tho engineers
for keeping the water out of their way.

The report comes to us pretty
straight that a company of capitalists
have secured a lease for mining pur-
poses upon all the lands in the Peoria
reservation lying east of Spring river,
aggregating some 5000 to 10000 acres.
This lease must be approved by the
secretary of the interior before any
work can be done on the land, but If
the secretary does approve it we may
look for some heavy Developments
down there in the near future. 1t is
also reported that G.. L. McClung, the
civil engineer, was employed recently
to lay out town at some point on the
Peoria reserve, but just where we
have not learned.

The Advocate said corn was selling
at II cents per. bushel in Columbus
last week. Verify the poor farmer
"gets 1t in the neck" from all sides.
If he raises poor crop the price may
be pretty good, put he has little to sell,
and if he does raise big crop then
the price goes down until It will hard
ly pay him to haul it to market.
When the farmers of this section get
to raising something besides corn and
oats and potatoes-say creamery stuff,
for instance-they will be much better
off.
