THE USELESS CREAMERY.

49,
There are plenty Of abandoned
screameries all over the country. They
failed for various reasons, chiefly be-
cause the people of the community in
which they were started were not ready
for them, or were not educated up
along dairy lines. 1t is easier to start
a creamery than it is to keep it going.
There must be a given amount Of pat
3ronage in order to make one profitable.
The most successful creameries today
are those conducted on the co-opera-
tive plan, in fact. thru many sections
of the vest the cooperative creamery
has possession OF the whole field Of
dairying. A creamery can not be profit
ably operated on less than the product
of four hundred COWS. and to make it
a real success II should have the pro-
duct OF two thousand cows When the

will be accomplished in dairy methods.

problems OF the expense of transport

you have heard him addressing keen

In conversation he is slow, deliber-

he enjoys talking, on, he gradually
warns up to 1t, his animation increases,
his words flow more swiftly. he forms
his ideas apparently in advance of his
speech, and when he has dismissed one
thought another is in waiting, clothed
in just the words he desires
Now and again his conversation is

see what really did say in it.
I advised him to carry out his half
formed determination, for he would
find il a book well worth reading, one

laughed in a quiet way, and said he
