1t is our opinion that this is about
she right time to talk about getting q
creamery located at Holly. Many OF
the farmers who have recently settled
near our town have herd ofmilk COWS,
80 there is no doubt but there are q
sufficient number to give q creamery a
good patronage. With che splendid
range throughout the summer and the
cheapness with which alfalfa can be
raised for winter feeding, this is just
the place for a creamery, and we hope
the farmers and the business men of
Holly viii take hold OF the matter and
have . creamery in operation here
early in the spring. 1t can be done
and it will prove to be one of the best
industries both for the farmer and for
the town that we could secure at this
time. Let us secure a creamery by all
means.
