Chris Christensen went out into the
neighborhood around Section 6, Doug
las township and proceeded to organ
ize creamery association this week,
The first days canvass showed twenty
six subscribers or share holders, which
insures it a success. Mr.. Christensen
had decided to start if he got twenty.
The canvass later no doubt added
more to the list. Their first meeting
was to be held Wednesday evening.
Inls locality is too far from the cream
cries surrounding them and is sadly in
need OF such an industry There is no
one thing that will build up a COM
munity faster or better than this. Tt
changes the system of farming and
rests it from the everlasting drain of
continual farming and creates the de-
mand for more grass. A locality in
which stock to considerable extent
is not grown will not show the same
industry and improved appearance
that the stock raising communities do.
The time is now past when clover is, a
failure in the county. The hills are
even the best producers. With
creamery to take care Of the milk
dairying becomes easy and the prices
profitable We overheard man re.
mark this summer that his six cows
Melted him about $1,000 per month.
1t would take about II acres or little
more TO pasture these cows and no
other produce from the same average
would put forth as much money not
counting the increase. This has been
banner year among creameries.
Every one of the nine accredited
creameries in the county, have put
out more and better grade of butter
than ever before. Their system has
become better and their knowledge of
conditions and circumstances more
acute, so that all these Announcements
are possible. The organization of this
creamery in this new locality will be
of inestimable value in MANY WAYS.
It will create labor, develope the pas
ture industry and bring into circula-
ton in the district larger amount Of
money, and should receive the hearty
cooperation and patronage of all it
touches.

and electrical equipment for the operation

Of its own cars.
On the whole case, said Justice Barnard,
the court Is inclined to hold that the least
Objectionable plan for both companies to
occupy the same roadway and rails is for
the defendant to be allowed the use of the
conduit and underground construction as
now existing, and that the right to have
such use is contemplated by fair inter-
probation of the various provisions of acts
of Congress Involved.
"Inasmuch, however, as the companies
have not thus far been able to agree upon
the terms of such joint occupancy and use"
the judge sets forth, which ought to be
settled before possession is taken, am dis
posed to restrain the defendant company
from turning on an electrical current or
running its cars over and thus taking pos
session of the portion of the complainants
road, as described. until the terms for
such possession and use shall have been
agreed upon or determined under the pro-
visions of the law by proper proceedings in
this court.
