tho the first efforts did not turn

Many of the parties were wholly

enough to entertain their guests.
But that itself was capital en-

Hundred and Fifty Cows.

A Il, Kinney, of Ottawa. Mi me
sofa, was in the city Monday al
the invitation Of the Com mercial
Club of this city, for the purpos {
of looking over the territory with
view to starting new creamery
to be in operation by the first OF
May next year. Mr.. Kinney wa S
SO favorably impressed with the
location that it was decided to
hold a meeting of the mem bers
OF the commercial club in the
afternoon to ascertain what in
ducements could be offered TO
have him locate here. Mr.. Kin
ney asked that he be guaranteed
the milk from three hundred and
fifty COWS SO that the creamery
could be started on a paying
busis ana this was readily con
sented to by the mem bers pres
ent. A good deal of interest was
displayed at the meeting ana a
number Of sites were offered for
the institution, all believing that
1T would be great benefit to the
community.
Mr.. Kinney is practical
creamery man, having been in
the business for a number of
years and is we'll recommended
by the business men of Ottawa.
1t was through the work Of the
car" of which Secretary II. S.
falrall. OF Iron River, is in
charge, that Mr.. Kinney was in
duced to come to this locality.
1t might be interesting to add
that according to the report of
the census enumerators there
were 769 cattle, 256 COWS in the
town Of Washburn on farms and
~ COWS not on farms; producing
in one year 1880 pounds of but
ter valued at S6,470. Besides
this there are 29I COWS in thA
city. It is therefore obviou S
that creamery can we'll be sup
