TESTS--Those tests which show
ed higher at our creamery were
brought to us by patrons Of other
creameries and were made in their
presence, one Of whom understands
the running Of a Babceck test; they
we're correctly made and run higher
than they had been at other cream
cries and we feel sure great many
other patrons of these FIVE creamer
les might be surprised if they would
have some tests make by dis.inter-
ested parties. On a certain test
made showing a light per cent, it
developed later that an accident
happened to the cream while still in
patrons hands, which caused low
test. Our test room is open at all
times to our patrons and we invite
them to see their tests made. In
regard to statement made that we
had given away stock to improve
our standing, we incorporated under
the laws of Iowa, which makes it
necessary for all stock to be paid
for in money. We have never Civ
en- away a dollars worth but could
have sold at full par value ten times
the amount we did sell.
QUALIFYING are making more
fine quality butter than any other
creamery in the state. Our Navy
Contract calls for butter scoring 81
and 95 per cent. Each churning is
inspected at tune of making by an
inspector of the Department of Agri-
culture of the United States, which
is the strongest possible guarantee
Of quality.
SIZE OF NAVY ORDER-The
Navy Contract takes the bulk of ou1
output during May, June and July,
and after filling this order, we have
a large export order for canned but.
ter that will take our output late in
to the fall and we already have an.
other Navy Contract booked to be
put up in May and June, 1908. In
this connection we want to call youl
attention to the fact that our tinnec
butter orders run clear through the
summer and fall months, during
which time rs per cent. of the tota
volume is produced of the year
During the winter months when the
production is light our butter i,
made into prints which are all sole
f. o. b. our factory to one customer
at high price. We do not ask tn
patronage of the farmers on basi
of sympathy but on the followin,
advantages we can give them:
lst. We have central locatio,
and the finest reasonable cost SAM
tary creamery, equipped with tn,
best machinery possible to procure
We invite patrons and the public tt
visit other creameries in this Coun
ty, then ours and compare them
this is the best way to prove GU
statement.
End. Our volume will equal th,
output Of about ten of the Iarges
other creameries in the County
therefore, we can manufacture at /;
much less expense; we have one ex
pert butter maker when they have
ten; we have one engine when they
have ten; we have our own refriger.
atoring machine while they must
spend large sums for ice. Our ex.
pense all the way through is less il
same proportion.
3rd. We have plenty of money
on which to conduct our business;
we make daily payments, if desired
We do not ask you to wait 80 or &c
days or ask you to buy stock te
build our creamery with and ther
because you own little stock try
to compel you to sell us your cream
at low price.
4th. Our tests are carefully mad,
and open at all times for your in
spection. We do not cut tests t,
enable us to pay high prices; GU
outlets enable us to pay high price
and we can sell double the volum
we are now making
9Th. Since the establishment o
our creamery, prices have rule,
much higher than previously. 9th
er creameries have been compelled
to discontinue their sinking fund
and dividends, their machinery i
out of date and wearing out. VIII,
should you send your product to
creamery at low price because 20,
own few dollars worth of stock
The difference in price you will re
ceive will amount to value OF you
stock in only a few weeks.
9th. Our business has more thai
doubled in the past few months; W,
expect continuance OF this increas
and the more patrons we get enable
us to reduce our expense just tina
much, while the burden will increas
to the patron who sells to the small
creamery.
7th. We are securing a yer
high price for all our canned butter
both tor Navy and Export. Severa
cents per pound more than our com
petitors realize. The balance of til
year we get high price for GU
print butter, enough of premium
over tubbed butter to pay the ea
pense of manufacturing.
In conslusion, we ask for you
