IMPROVEMENTS IN BARNS.

From incomplete returns for the year,
Mr.. Hansen estimates that there have
been 30 new barns built in the state,
which comply In every respect with the
laws in regard to handling mich cows.
More than 10 barns have been remod-
elcd with all the sanitary requirements
which speaks well of the manner In
which the farmer is now handling his
milk. These improvements represent
an Investment of $4,000. Besides TINS
most Of the farmers are handling moth
ing but registered cattle which have
been tuberculine tested which has ere
ated a big expense. But the dairyman
has found that 1t pays and he is willing
to make the Investment. The accom-
panying illustrations show-ihe improve
ments that have been made In barns.

SALT LAKE PRESSED BRICK
COMPANY, located at MILFORD on the
ID. O. Il. g., three miles southeast of

brick companies of Utah; it produces

1t IL interesting to know why some
bricks produced by this company are
red and some are white. Tho dark

with great deal of eastern inspected
meat because the small slaughter hous-

der the government as required by the
ordinance of Salt Lake City, and it has
acted as check on the Strengthening

and Mr.. Hansen says it will not be long
before there will be state inspection of
some kind to pass upon the meat
slaughtered in the state.
CHEESE AND BUTTER.
In cheese and butter making there
has been 4 notable increase in the past
year. On account Of incomplete re-
turns from some of the factories. Mr.
Hansen was unable to give the amount
1t will run into 100000 pounds increase,
however. Tho climate is exceptionally
favorable to cheese and butter making.
While Utah does not supply the local
demand. the product has Il market
outside of the state that Is more profit
able and the crcameries and factories
ship q good deal of the products out of
the state.
There were &c canning factories in
operation this fall, putting up fruit and
vegetables of all sorts and description.
, Ten new sanitary scalders were In
stalled in the factories this year at an
expense OF $4,000. Every factory Is
now complying with the pure food laws
and the products are finding Il market

year, and Mr. Hansen found very fow

CREAM FOR COAST.

Among the most noticeable develop
ments this year Is the sweet cream
trade. which has been worked UP IN
Utah shipping to outside points. For
the past eight months, Utah dairymen
have been shipping sweet cream to DIFF
fercnt points along the Pacific coast,
finding a market for it in san Fran
cisco and Los Angeles where IT Is used
In making ice creams and confcction-
cries. Three or four years ago this was
thought TO be impossible When the
first shipments We're made from Salt
Lake to San Francisco. the government
inspectors in California held the cream
up. a test was made of the cream
and 1t was found to be pure. wholesome.
unadulterated, and pronounced to be in
first class condition when ii was put
into food products. The government
inspectors visited the dairying plants
In Salt Lake which shipped the cream,
and made report on the manner in
which the cream was handled ana
shipped. For several weeks these gov
eminent agents took samples of the
cream and the report embodied several
thousand words. This winter the sweet
cream trade Is increasing. and 1t prom
ises to be Il very profitable business for
the crcameries which have the facilities
10 handle 1t.
There are now II crcameries In the
state and several more are being built.
When the pure food commission was
established there were 81 creameries
and Swimming stations in the state.
The dairy laws were so stringent that
for the first two or three years half OF
the plants were put out Of commission.
The creamery business became CEN
trali2ed with Salt Lake as the distrb-
uting point. Now there IL n tendency
among the dairymen to establish CO.
operative diaries and crcameries. In
this manner the dairymen can form
corporations and haul their own milk
and cream into the creameries and
handle the products with larger profits.
Utah dairymen are unable to supply
the demand OF the creameries in the
state. and sweet cream is shipped from
Idaho, Wyoming and Nevada into Salt
Lake. where it Is churncd into butter
In certain parts Of the year, Utah but
ter Is shipped into California, Idaho,
Washington and oregon, the product
finding Il ready market
During the past year it Is estimated
by Mr.. Hansen that 100000 has been
spent in creameries In the state for
new machinery and improvements. The
