Statistics on the Returns
from Creameries

There are approximately 5000 cream

Of SO. 10000 pounds Of butter annually
The average net price per pound paid
farmers for butter fat ranged from 4 TO 5
cents higher in 1877 than in 1906 This
would indicate an increased return OF
S2o.6oo.5do 10 S25.0Ooc10 TO the patrons for
the year just passed.
An interesting thing about the cream
cry business Is the fact that 1-s0O OF the
500 creameries are cooperative plants
and the number Of cooperative cream
cries IS constantly growing. The greater
number Of creameries that have gone out
Of business for one reason or another in
the past fevv years have been the iadivid-

corporations.
Something over 100 creameries. mainly.

reports are nearly al from sections where

An Old Story.
Williams and the Wilson girl, who
claims not to be yet sixteen years old,
although she almost looks to be a
woman of middle age because of her
debauches, have been before the pc.
lice court nearly half dozen times
before on the same charge. The court
declared he knew no other way out
Of the matter than to send the girl
to the reform school.
Jessie's mother died some months
ago and especially since that time she
has been on the downward path II
Is said that even when her mother
lived that beer drinking and a way
