The creamery check is godsend
to farmers and business men alike
in these days of flood and nothing
doing in the cornfelds. Those who
are fortunate enough to have good
cows are getting as high as 500 per
month out of their product, rain or
no rain. Mr.. Stensvad informs US
that the number of his patrons has
more than doubled since the opening
Of the season. the output being
about rs tubs weekly. The local
creamery has a capacity for turning
out more than double that amount.
and we predict that it will not be
manv years before farmers will i'm
prove their opportunities to the
limit. 1t is, the development OF the
dairying industry that has brought
prosperity to eastern Minnesota and
