Dec. l, the directors having voted to clos
f the creamery on that date, as announce
) in an exclusive story in The Phoenix las
week. The Aldens are large buyers {
n milk in this locality, and the shipment
reduced the cream supply to an eXter
e that made it impossible for the creamer
e to do business profitably. Having ampl
e capital the Boston concern will pay
= large price to patrons in an effort t
build up and enlarge the business, an
v for the month of December they will pa
$ producers 30 cents a pound for butter ia
This will yield producers nearly as niue
t profit as though they shipped milk an
o they will rave the skinned milk TO fee
a on the farms, The Aldens do not eX
pect that the new arrangement will tur
o shipments away from the milk train, bu
I that 1t will induce farmers to replenis
r their herds and materially increase tn
supply. A. G. Eldridge will continue I
t collect the cream as usual. c. l.. Aide
