Hold. Majority of the stock.

Generally, in order to avoid hostili-
ties, they have transferred their IT,
ties to companies and retained the
majority of the stock"
AS to the bona fde nature of the
transfers TO certain companies, Gov
ernor Taft said that he had cross-ex-
;mined the heads of religious orders.
He added:
81 think after you have read the
evidence it will become obvious that
while it is true that transfers have
Eeen made, they have been colorado
in this sense-not fraudulent; | do
not say that-but they have been col.
cradle in the sense that the transfer
made was for the purpose Of giving
he public the impression that the
fr.ars had parted with their titles, and
thus facilitating the collection OF
rents, while in fact the ownership is
still retained. That is my informa'
tiCn as to the condition Of the titles
row, in spite of protest filed by
sume stockholders with respect to the
ownership Of some haciendas."

viii Breed Berkshires.

For years the Mound Spring herds of
Short Horn cattle and Berkshire swine
were known as among the best in the
State, being shown at the leading fairs
and always capturing fair share of the
best premiums. The proprietor, Mr.. j.
w Hibbard, never spared any expense
to improve his stock and purchased the
best blood to be obtained. A few years
ago he gave up stock breeding almost
entirely. He has however retained a
few good Berkshires all the time and
has now decided to again actively en-
gage in breeding this popular breed of
swine on large scale. With this end
in view he purchased last week from l.
N. Barker & Son, of Thorntown, Ind. a
boar sired by the famous sire, Gen. Lee,
and two brood sows. The animals rep
resent the best Berkshire blood-com-
ing as they do from one of the Oldest
and best known herds in the country
He also purchased one sow at the Chi
cago sale. This will give him with the
stock he already had fine start and the
breeders of Berkshires in the State will
do well to watch the produce of Mound
Spring Farm.

The Bennington Creamery.

A few figures taken from the report
of J. w. Hibbard, manager of the Ben
nington Creamery Co.. for the eleven
months and twelve days the creamery
has been in operation will be of interest.
Number of pounds of milk received
at the factory, 1,497, 10; number pounds
butter made, 67,479; an average of one
pound of butter from 224 pounds of milk
average price received for butter, 23cts.
per pound; total receipts, $14 959. "a;
paid to patrons for butter fat, 81, 76O.S5.
Many of the patrons who have been
with the factory from the start, Nov.
1S, 1901, to Nov. 1, 1902, received from
$35 to 81 per COW net. In addition to
this 80 per cent Of the milk has been
returned to them to feed calves and
pigs This is great addition to the
income from the cow making the keep
ing of cows and sending milk to the
creamery one of the most profitable pur-
suits of the farm. Moreover all the
work of butter making is taken away
from the farm, which certainly is pleas
ing to the farmers wife.
The Bennington Creamery Co. is in
good financial shape; every patron has
had his pay in full on or before the 10th
of the month for the month previous.
All the stockholders are satisfied with
the showing made for the the first year.
The following patrons have received
net proceeds for the eleven months and
twelve days as follows: w. R. Drury,
seven cows, 1891 81 Geo. A. Cooper,
six COWS, $207. 7.66; 9. s. Baldwin, seven
cows, $2O6.44; o. G. Waugh, four cows;
$161 51 Ed. Breaugh, seven cows,
$194 03.
