Farmers Receive High Prices For Dairy
Products


There are approximately 5000 cream
cries IN the United States, making a
total OF 500, 900. 600 pounds of butter
annually. The average net price per
pound paid farmers for butter fat rang
ed from to 5 cents higher in 1907
than In 1906 This would indicate an
increased return OF 20 to % million dol
lars to the patrons for the year just
passed.
An Interesting thing about tie
creamery business is the fact that
1900 of the 5000 creameries are
cooperative plants and the number OF
creameries is constantly growing. The
greater number OF creameries that
have gone out Of business for one rea-
son or another 10 the past few years
have been the individual crsameries.

Something overa thousand cream

The Arena of Sport

The coming football game to be
played between two local teams on
Thanksgiving day promises to be the
biggest thing in an athletic way in
Grangeville's history. An interesting
fact developed when the two captains,
Everett Williams and Clement Hanna,
were looking about for names for the
contesting aggregations. Of the IRON
clad-Invincble game of Thanksgiving
day, 1905, there are seven players on
the two teams to play in this year S
game three Invincible players on
Hanna's team and four Ironclad sup
porters among Williams bunch
When this fact came to light it was
suggested that the names and colors
of the teams in the former contest be
used again and the suggestion met with
popular approval. Williams warriors
are known as the Ironclads," and
will sport red and white as colors.
The "Invincibles,'' Hanna's bunch,
are displaying black and yellow as

their colors. Each team is practicing
every other night in the Y. Nj. c. A.
gymnasium and each claims to have
worked out several point-winning
plays already. The game will be
called at 2 o. clock sharp on the after
noon of Thanksgiving day and will
be over at 1880 or 4 o'clock. The
Ironclads will have for center Harry
Wood, who played the same position
in the former contest. He says it
looks like an easy victory for the IRON
clads this time. Ingram and Cum
mings are lining up as guards and
their work has been satisfactory to
Capt. Williams so far. Hub Wood
and Joe Kilen will do stunts at the
tackle position and Davis and Rick
ards will look after the duties and
pleasures of end men. Wright will
play the pivotal position of quarter and
will act as field captain. Frank
Richardson, fullback, and Capt.

halfbacks, promise to advance the

filled with joyous moments especially
to, those who are not accustomed to a
beautiful country life. The jolly crowd
left on a Npecial car at o'clock, re-

dinner was served, which these ladies
are So noted for preparing. In the af
