The new era. (Walden, Colo.) 1906-19??, 1907-04-25
PROFITABLE
BUSINESS
The Milking of COWS
will pay good
dividend.
The Average dairy COW will
bring In about $6.or
moro a Month.

One of the biggest paying industries
in the North Park, if it is given fair
trial. will be the dairy business, and now
that first class creamery plant is being
installed in Walden, it is to be sincerely
hoped that everyone will take hold and
boost for the new proposition for all
they are worth
Mr. E. G Randall, president of the
North Park Creamery companp which
is installing the creamery came in on
last Thursdays stage, and is assisting
Mr. Sterzbach in getting the machinery
and building in shape to open up for
business by the first of May A repre-
sentative of the New Era called at the
creamery building Monday morning to
note the progress of the work and found
six foot trench-the latter he was dig
ging to lay water pipes from the city
main to the creamery Mr.. Randall
does not have the appearance of pick
and shovel man, but the manner in
which he was welding the tools left no
room for doubt as to his ability, how
ever he explained that it was impossible
to secure help at any price, and as the
Atime for the completion of the plant is
limited he was putting in double duty,
talking to ranchmen. giving advice and
pntting in some hard manual..l~bor-at
at the same time.
Mr.. Randall says he has market for
all the butter that can be made by the
North Park Creamery and is very anx-
ious that all the milk possible can be
secured to start out with. The main
difficulty for the first year or two is that
ranchmen will not take sufficient inter
est in the creamery to milk cows. If
everyone will take hold and send in
their cream, evena quart or so, it will
help that much, and as Randall & True
have put quite sum of money into the
starting here of an industry that will
mean so much to the Park, they are
certainly entitled to all the assistance
that can be given them.
ASS add to ranchmen, who wish to
go into the dairy business in the most
modern way, the creamery carrys
stock of Nos and U. S. cream separ-
ators. This is quite an accommodation
to the ranchmen, as it enables them buy
the best separator the market affords at
regular factory prices with the freight
added The No, 6 machine will handle
500 pounds of cream an hour and the
No. 8 will separate 700 pounds These
two sizes will cover the field pretty thor
oughy.
AS to the question of the amount of
money each COW will earn, it depends
largely, of course on the quality of the
COW, and the facilities for taking proper
care of her. According to Mr.. Sterz
bach, the average dairy COW, with the
right kind of care, will bring to her
owner So. month, gross.
A bunch of twenty five COWS would
average the owner about So. day.
With feed at minimum Of expense,
and the favorable conditions of the coun
try for dairy business, there ought to be
large profit in the dairy business in
the Park.
A sale for all the butter the Walden
creamery can produce for some time to
come has been guaranteed by the Lara
mie merchants, who are very anxious
that Mr.. Randall shall establish another
creamery at that point. Now that the
North Park Creamery Co. have evidenc-
ed their good faith by putting in mod
ern creamery plant, it is certainly hoped
every ranchman will do his part to make
the business the success it should be,
