FARMERS RETURN To
DAIRY BUSINESS
Skowhegan Or a m cry
Largest in County
Prospects for Better Dairy Business
in SkOWhegan.

Z. E. Harris, agent for the Skowhe-
gan Jersey Creamery, made the state
ment Friday that the dairy business
would undoubtedly be better in
Skowhegan for the coming season
than for some years past. He reck
ons that this increased condition will
be, because of the fact that more hay
has been harvested this year than
for several years and that the poor
market for potatoes last year has
discouraged many of the native farm
ers in this branch and they are re-
turning to the dairy business and,
too, at present time prices are condu-
Give to this business.
The Skowhegan creamery does
more business than any other one in
the county, there being one at Scion,
Norrdgewock, East New Portland
and Pittsfeld At present this
creamery has about 250 patrons, the
territory covering parts of Fairfield,
Skowhegan, Norridgewock, Canaan
Madison. Smithfield, Mercer, Starks
and Cornyille. This territory en-
braces 900 miles. OF these $50 pa
irons the greater majority consider
the Jersey COWS are the best for the
business.
Those of the company's patrons
that produced over two hundred
pounds of butter fat during the
month of June We're: E. y. Merrill
and L. e. Traitor of Skowhegan;
Leander Butler and b F. Baker of
Starks; Clara Merrill and L. G. Stey-
ems of Cornville; e. F. Rowell, Madi
son; and II. L. Purington OF Canaan.
Charles Marston OF Skowhegan
WAS the philanthropist who promoted
this enterprise, and as result of his
untiring efforts the corporation was
formed back in 1884. Most of the
stock was taken by farmers who be
came interested. and as the enterprise
has grown and prospered, there has
been little tendency for the owner
ship to change.
Boston and vicinity furnish the
principal market for the pasteurized
cream and choice butter produced
Superintendent Harris reports a
growing demand for unsalted butter,
which has long been a specially with
European producers. OF late the call
from customers for fresh eggs has
become so insistent that the COM
pany drivers are now collecting the
hen fruit along with the cream. This
convenience TO those who have the
latter for sale is thoroughly appre-
ciated.
High water mark on the volume OF
business was reached in 1905 when
the Skowhegan Jersey Creamery
handled butter fat to the amount OF
nearly one hundred and eight tons
Since that time, and in spite of the
j higher prices, the amount handled has
dropped about thirty tons. and is now
below the mark established a decade
| ago.

PROFITABLE SkQWHEGAN
FARM
L. \. Merrill Is Setting Pace in
Farming-He Has 200 Tons of Hay,
"ROusing" Piece of Corn and an
Excellent Herd of Cattle.

Hon. F. \. Merrill has set a pace in
farming that interests everybody in
SkoWhegan. His barns today contain
200 tons of the best quality of hay
which he has harvested this season.
His corn in uncommonly good. A
man who has travelled over nearly the
entire State in the last few weeks
on looking at Mr.. Merrill's corn a
few days ago said he believed it to
be the best in the State.
Mr.. Merrill is one of the prominent
lawyers of Maine. He has been sue
cessful in his profession and now a
look at his farm shows that he does
everything by method coupled with
energy. Since he has owned this
farm, which is situsted about four
miles from Skowhegan going toward
Canaan, he has made his farming
pay. His system is general. He
does nearly all branches of farming
but makes no more speciality of one
thing than of another. He has u
acres of corn which is to be used
to feed his COWS. This corn towers
now far above the ordinary person S
head. His % COWS bring him tidy
sum each month. During the month
of July he has sold more cream to
the Skowhegan creamery than any
of the other 230 patrons. He has
now Is calves which he is raising
His hogs are an appreciate asset to
him. He sold four tons of pork last
year from hogs that he raised. He
has this season piece of Hungarian
that, when harvested, will give him
from so to 60 tons .of fodder for his
cattle. He does not plant potatoes
in abundance but what he plants
makes a record in yield. From IL
acres planted last year he got SCI
bushels.
In addition to the fact that Mr.
Merrill is an excellent farmer as well
as professional man he has a farm
that is naturally good. 1t is situated
on a side hill which slopes from
Eaton Mountain toward the west and
contains 600 acres. From the farm
one views Canaan village stretching
four miles to the east and the mum
erous ponds scattered over the towE
of Canaan. To the northeast but a
short distance away rises a high hill
thick with the heavy growth of hard
wood timber, and to the west one
sees Skowhegan and the beautiful
blue hills in the distance. The soil
is clay loan and has wonderful
advantage because of the natural
slope. The smooth fields stretch out
in the distance with hardly a rock in
them.
The farm has excellent buildings
of the most up-to-date style. The
house is large and commodious
There are two great barns which are
arranged conveniently inside, ev-
rything being simple for the work
men. Mr.. Merrill employs during
the haying season about ten men and
three throughout the year.
