\ creamery at Strawberry Point. Iowa,
is credited with being the largest con
Germ of the kind IN the world. A state
ment OF its business shows that in the
IL months previous SO Feb. 1, 1896, it had

total receipts from all sources were $685.
IIs4.3o. The 20 mile milk route haulers
received $l0,65S.44. The total cost of
labor TO produce this above income eX-
elusive of hauling was $2,4OO. 1t took
100 barrels OF salt to season the butter.
Five s%eparators to extract tho cream
from the milk gave employment 10 "a
men. The total capital invested In the

a report OF TIE De Smet creamery for
February. The total receipts were 1885,
600 pounds OF milk, and the average
price paid for it was 10 cents per hun
