The Bennington creamery, one of the
best equipped establishments OF its kind
in southern Vermont, has been sold at
AUCTION to Sheriff John Robinson of BEN
nington for S1725. The purchase includ-
ed the building, which is new, all the ma
chinery and apparatus, of the most inn
proved patterns, and half an acre of land.
Less than two years ago the plant cost
$3.50. The farmers were dissatisfied with
the prices realized for butter and refused
to support the creamery. 1t is said that
Sheriff Robinson, who is a practical far
mer and has much influence among the
farming classes, will try to enlist the CO.
operation of the farmers in the enterprise.
The next board of managers will probably
consist entirely of farmers.
