y. j. Murphy purchased a number
Of cows from II. w. Boulter Monday,
and has taken up the milk business in
earnest along with his other indus
tries. Mr.. Murphy is thinking seri-
ously of establishing creamery in
judith Gap. He has had large ex-
pcrience in the creamery business in
Canada, and was ALWAYS successful.
1t would be great thing for Judith
Gap to have creamery conducted
successfully, and it would be Il still
! greater benefit to every farmer living
| in this section Of the state.
! Butter worth 30 cents per pound is
made from the same milk that grease
worth cents Il pound is made. 1t
takes as much milk to make the one
! an the other. The one is the result of
ignorance, the other of intelligence.
! The one goes begging in the market,
that brings poverty upon the produc-
er, the other is everywhere in demand
and brings wealth and honor to the
maker. The one honors the COW the
other disgraces her! The one builds
novels and sheds, the other builds
mansions and costly barns! The one
covers the farm with mortgages, the
other removes them! The one brings
ignorance to the children, the other
knowledge and responsibility. In no
way are ignorance and knowledge
more plainly brought IN contrast than
in the manufacture of butter. Ignor.
