Alexandra is an example of what this
competition means. Many of the farm
ier. who have for years sold their cream
to the Alexandria creamery have grad
ually withdrawn their patronage in or
der to accept more favorable, but tenn
porary, prices from larger concerns in
nearby cities. So great has been the
loss Of patronage that the creamery,
which at one time was one of the most
prosperous in the state, is at present
being run at loss.
However, the managers have not be-
come discouraged, as the farmers who
have been lured by the higher prices
paid by larger concerns are beginning
to realize that if the Creamery is COM
PEELED to shut down they will be at
the mercy of the larger institutions
and compelled to accept whatever
prices are offered. An effort will be
made to induce those who have re-
