The Cost of Building Dreamer,

During the past few years a large
number of creameries have been built
in the United States. Many of them
have been successful from the start.
while others have failed after a few
months operation, and some were
never even started
An investigation of the creamery
business in several states by Secre-
| tary Wilson, of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture has shown
that the cause of many of the fail
ures was due to lack of a sufficient
number of cows, which should be
not less than 400, and that others
failed because of improper organiza-
ton, In the case of cooperative
| creameries, and excessive cost of
building and equipment. Many
creameries have cost about twice
their actual worth, and were not of
the type suited to the locality in
which they were built.
| The cost OF a creamery building
about % by As feet will very from
$1,000 to $500, dependant upon the
locality, the construction and the cost
of material and labor. Such a build
ing usually consists of a main work
/ room, engine and boiler room Gin
Guiding space for refrigerating ma
chine), coal room. refrigerator, store
room and office.
Machinery for a gathered-cream
plant, consisting of 15-horsepower
boiler, 10-horsepower engine, COM
bination churn with a capacity of 600
pounds of butter, and other necessary
apparatus, will cost approximately
$1,000. Machinery for a whole-milk
plant will cost about $3.50. This
equipment will handle from 1000 to
1900 pounds of butter per day. If a
refrigerating machine is included the
cost will be from 5000 to $1,000
more
The total cost of a creamery would
therefore vary from $1,000 for a
small gathered-cream plant without
artificial refrigeration. where labor
and material are cheap, to $465O fol-
a whole-milk plant, including arti.
fetal refrigeration and a higher cost
of labor and material.
The Department of Agriculture Is
prepared to furnish information for
the proper organization of creamer-
les and cheese factories, and upon
request will supply plan of organiza-
ton, list of machinery, and plan fol-
creamery Correspondence should be
addressed to the Bureau of Animal
Industry, Washington, D. C.

TO many, the victories of the Taft
campaign in New York and Indiana
appeared to knock Roosevelt's hat
almost out of the ring, but recent de-
yelopments show that the Colonel is
still to be reckoned with at the Chi
cage convention. His strong major
tiles in Illinois and Pennsylvania, fol-
lowed closely by his excellent show
ing in Nebraska and Oregon, clearly
indicate that his campaign Is by no
means dead letter. Comparatively
few votes were cast in Oregon's
Democratic primaries, but in the
counties from which returns have
been reported, Governor Wilson
seems to be in the lead. In Ne
braska, however, Speaker Clark ap-
parently has things his own way. At
present 1t looks as II dark horses"
have fair chance in both parties.

The japanese war scare has again
been hauled up before the public by
United States Senator Lodge. 1t
seems that a private japanese cor
poration has been negotiating with an
American company for the purchase
or large section of land on the west
ern coast of Mexico, around Magdale-
ma bay. The idea is advanced that
lnasmuch as that particular district
is OF no value except for naval BUR
poses, the Japanese company wants
to buy it merely for speculation, with
the Intention of selling it to the Jap
anese government. Mr.. Lodge con-
siders that if such a scheme were car
ried out our possession of the Pana-
ma Canal would be endangered, and
the Monroe Doctrine violated. How
ever, as no more attempts have been
made to buy the district in question
since the business has been made
public, popular opinion attaches only
small significance to the matter.

Will Contest
 New Laws.

The railroads of Arlzona have pre- pared bills that have been presented to the U. s. court to enjoin Gov. Hunt from proclaiming the new laws relat- ing to railroads in effect. There are four counts on which the railroads seek to prevent tha taking effect of the three te fac bill, one of which IS that three cent rate would be con- tiscatory of the property of the rail roads. The company show that such rate would be to low to return a revenue to the railroad company on the cost of operation. The other req sons cover objections to the submis- sion of the question to the people at the late election and the lack of a proper canvassing board to properly not probable that the court will take action Tn the matter of the fares bill, unless It holds that the submission of the question was unlawful at the elec- tion just past, the ground being that it was not general election under the courts interpretation of the law. The matter is really in the hands of the Corporation Commission under the law as adopted, and it would be up to the com mission to abrogate the terms of the act if it was confscatory of the property of the company. The several other laws will be attacked in different manner, but it is probable that the at- tacks will relate to the constitution ality Of the laws.
 If the court decides that these ques- tions could not be submitted to the people at the late election it will have the effect of holding up the Miners lien law. to which there would be lit tie objection on the part of the mining i terest of the state.

Los Angeles Bunch and
 the Great Hiqhway.

Some of the newspapers of the north. ern part of Arizona are quoting John Mitchell, of Los Angeles, as saying that he was very much interested in putting the great scenic attractions of northern Arizona before the eastern tourist. He says that he is after re- suits rather than exploiting any real estate schemes. Then he enthusias- tlcally states: "You can make it southern route if they desire, but if the northern counties will build a decent road from Springervile west, no one can compel tourists to go south leaving all the great points of inter- est"
 This is quite remarkable coming from John Mitchell, who bitterly as- sailed any reference to the northern route when proposed at the meeting of the Good Roads Association, at Las Vegas, last week. Mitchell demanded tn at the Old Trail Association should commit itself unequiyocally to the southern route, and it was only after meeting defeat that he consented to any consideration of the Springerville route, but that after passing Spring erville the route should again go south through Globe, Phoenix and Yuma. The Salton Sea land boomers had Mitchell for their spoksman and he, staid with them to the end. No nOrJu. ern route for him. Los Angeles has already raised about 10),O00$ to boost the southern route and Mitchell is at the head of this scheme of diverting travel by way of Brawley and Yuma. This would indicate the measure of Mitchell's sincerity.

Last Monday evening Deputy Mar shal Bush Anderson and a guard came up from Phenix and took to the Capi- tai one Overall Kid, who was under indictment in Fl Paso on charge of receiving postage stamps stolen from a postoffice Tn Colorado. The Kid had been held in the Kingman jail by the Sheriff of Mohave county the past month on numerous charges, but lat terly on commitment from the U, g. Commissioner. Despite the statement of the Journal Miner the Overall Kid. or Jack Teasdale, under which name he was indicted, was taken quietly from the jail by the deputy marshal, and the marshal had nothing what ever to do with his capture. This Overall Kid is quiet unassuming fel- low and not the blood thirsty fellow the Journal-Miner would have its readers believe him to be.
