| With the close OF this month Fred Ellis
! expects to finish his duties in the creamery,
| for no other reason than hat the meagre
salary paid the second hand is no. sufficient

| neighOorng creameries does the second,
or even tie third and fourth man receive
such an iDsignitc ant sum as is paid the sec.
ond man here. 1t is well to be able to pay
patrons one 70 two Gems more for butter
fat than the neighboring cresmer 90, but
the effect is spoiled when it is in one sense
accomplished by taking the daily bread
OF the second man. Why not pay liv-
ing prices, raise the salary OF your second
man from SIG p3r month to figure that
honest labor is really worth and retain a
deserving man?
