The Democrat received the county
printing award, legal notices, because
it was the lowest bidder, offering to
do the work for less money than is
charged for any one time commercial
advertisement. The commissioners
were right in making the award and
now they should see that the pro
visions of the bid are lived up to and
the county saved at least one thou
sand dollars on printing to what it
was two and three years ago when the
commissioners refused to consider
bids. If the same policy is adhered
to by the commissioners during their
term of office-giving contracts to
lowest responsible bidders, and see
ing that all parties, whether furnish

Representatives of the Hastings In
dustrial company of Chicago are in

cooperative creamery. A creamery is
a fine thing, but the farmers should
know just what they are doing and
should be careful about having a
creamery plant put in by promoters
for the reason that so many of them
are idle over the country. In the
first place the cost is generally dou-
BILE what it should be. The cost of
creamery machinery for town the
size of Durango with corresponding
cows, or 400 to 900, should not be
over 81 500 and with $500 cash in the
bank the enterprise should prove sue
