to Farmers and Dairym en-.

The people in and surrounding th'
vicinity Of Macon realizing the serious
ness Of farm conditions under present
methods Of cropping and decreasing th'
fertility Of the soil from year to yes'
have come to the conclusion that dairy
ing is one Of the best methods Of bull =
ing up the depleted soil; besides bring
ing in a cash income, and to that end
are building a creamery owned by loo d
people on the cooperative plan, therel y
insuring patrons Of the plant the higl =
est possible returns for their product at
all times. But Of curse in order for a
creamery to exist it requires the COOP
Grafton Of COW owners, and we wal
you to feel as though this is your cream
cry and not ours and want all the as
sistance we can get to help US put this
plant on a solid foundation.
As with other manufacturing i%nstitu-
tons the more cream that is handled It
n plant the cheaper the product can
be handled, and you will be benefited
by the increased price we are enable !
to pay you. The conditions for dairy
ing in this section of the country are
ideal, with your long pasture seasons
and the best markets of the United
States at your door. There is no reason
why Noxubee county cannot, within a
very short time, be famed for its butter
as well as cotton in years gone by.
Of course you realize in order to
make this kind of butter requires good
raw material and frequent delivery of
cream, and in order for the butter
maker to handle to the best advantage,
make your delivery in the morning.
II you have not thought about the
dairy business talk to some of these

Aside from the position of Alvah
